About this mod

Permissions and credits
This mod is outdated and is now maintained within SupreMe Overhaul

SM Combat Hide v1.2
Created by the Strategy Master
------------------------------------------------

This mod allows to more effectivly hide from npcs you are in combat with. If you stay out of visible sight from them long enough the npc will not be sure where you have gone and lose track of you. No more do npc's have homing beacons on your position.

Once the npc has lost you if brave enough or dislike you enough they will search the area for a while and if they come accross you they will instantly attack. After some time they will stop actively searching the area for you.

There is also a fix to the never ending combat situations so that when its obvious the area has no enemies combat mode will end.

Requirements
---------------
- Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE) v17

Configuration
----------------
If you copy over the ini file into the "Data" directory you can modify some of the settings of this mod.

Choose the time before enemies give up or alter general actor behaviour.

Compatability
----------------
Compatible with Attack and Hide. I recommend you use the ini to modify the iAICombatMinDetection to between -40 and -45

Compatible with my SM Regional bounty mod. Just ensure you dont rename the esp from "SM Bounty.esp"

Reneers guard mod adds similar functionality to guards so will likely conflict. Do not use them together.

Known Issues
----------------
Occasionally some actors are left in an alerted state even though they are no longer searching for the player.
