🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure you have the mod enabled in your load order — it's a simple ESP, so just drop it in your Data folder or use a mod manager.
If you're on PC, you can install it manually by extracting to your Fallout 4 Data folder; no F4SE or script extender needed.
Since it's a gameplay tweak, it's safe to add mid-playthrough, but always keep a backup of your save just in case.
