About this mod

Basic mod that adds items to the world, that can automatically unlock doors, containers, and terminals for you

Requirements
Permissions and credits
INTRODUCTION
I actually like the hacking minigame, but from time to time I want to multitask; fighting enemies while I also Lockpick or Hack. I can't justify stopping in combat to pick a lock or hack a terminal in a stationary position, where I would surely be turned into swiss cheese.
So, I made this mod.

There are 2 options, toggleable in the MCM, for the mod: Time-Based Lockpicking/Hacking and Count-Based Lockpicking/Hacking.
Time-Based: will make the interaction take more time based on how difficult the lock/hack is, and how many of the relevant perks you have.
Count-Based: will make the interaction take more items based on how difficult the lock/hack is, and how many of the relevant perks you have.
aka, As you get more Locksmith and Hacker perks, the hacking and Lockpicking will take less time/items to do.

REQUIREMENTS
Base game, F4SE, Robco Patcher and its requirements, and MCM for MCM settings use.

INSTALL INFO
Just install the mod and any relevant patches, and go.

INTERACTION INFO
If you have an Actuated Lockpick or Data Overflow Holotape in your inventory, when you hover your cursor over a door, container or terminal that is locked, you will see an extra interaction option.
Simply press the button it shows, and the requisite device(s) will be utilised. After some time, it will be unlocked for you with no effort on your part.

The devices become craftable, and then more efficiently crafted, as you gain the relevant perks.
You get xp for crafting the devices of course.

You can choose whether or not to gain XP from using the devices to unlock things.
You can also enable Cheat Mode, which will let you use the items infinitely, AKA they don't get used up.

UPDATE PROTOCOL
If an update is released, uninstall the old version entirely and then install the new version.
In the game, the mod should update automatically. Robco Patcher is used to place the items in the Leveled Lists so that they aren't permanently altered and the mod can be uninstalled with no issues.
