Re: Devourment Refactor
I can't seem to be able to get eaten by small things (bunnies, foxes, but also actively hostile things like skeevers) unless I specifically force it with the debug menu or by offering. I have tried modifying belly capacity settings and seeing if that helps, but it does not seem to. Is that intentional? (Of course I got those critters marked as being allowed to be predators as well.)

Using the vore hotkey instead of the power. You can set it from the MCM.

Their capacity factors into it, and you also have to be damaged by a certain amount. I'm pretty sure the swallow calculation takes a number of 'threat' factors into account, so you might be effectively too strong for them even to try.

Thanks, that is good to know.
Another question; how does struggling actually work? There is next to feedback as to what you are actually supposed to do to get it higher. What seems to happen is that you get like 10% along the way to get out tops, then it just goes back down again, only maybe once have I succeeded in actually escaping this way. (Though some of the other Devourment mods I have installed might interfere with that as well.) Makes it so that the only practical way to escape is to have someone along to help rescue yourself.

Re: Devourment Refactor
You have to tap strafe-left and strafe-right alternatingly (a, d, a, d).
A while back it was changed so pressing them in the wrong order lead to the struggle bar losing progress, which is kind of a problem for how Skyrim's script load works, I think? Since you need to tap it at the perfect rhythm or you'll hit the right key, and then the wrong key, and because the game hasn't registered that you hit the correct key yet, it'll drain progress from the incorrect key being pressed despite it being the next key in sequence.
I think I'd enjoy a way to toggle off losing progress by messing up the struggle minigame. In my playthrough it's gotten to the point where I literally can't escape anything because the rhythm of how fast I have to press the buttons is slower than the digestion speed of most bandits, and trying to do it faster leads to losing progress and losing time.

It appears that I got alternate player struggling active, which is all well, except the "visible key prompts" were not actually visible. Ah well, just turned it off and it works well. Thanks for the help!

I find drawing and sheathing weapons resets the animation. Does that not work for you?

I had this problem before and I found out that using vore on people first will allow them to use it back on you but don't know if this might solve it for you

We're waiting for LibFire and NetScriptFramework to update to AE so we can bring refactor over.

Re: Devourment Refactor
Is there a way to individually set NPCs/Followers Pred and Prey skills? Through console command or something or other?

Also Custom Skills Framework, which is waiting on NetScriptFramework as well i think.

Since I can't for the life of me get this current version to work I'm really hoping for the dependencies to soon reach AE. Hopefully I can get the eventual AE version to work. Because the little help I've gotten, since I've mostly been ignored, didn't help me all.

Well, keep in mind that this particular forum tends to be people requesting help, like, 75% of the time - with some issues being repeated several times - and very few people available to answer every single issue, but you probably especially didn't get help in particular for the following statement:
Dongers wrote:I know I sound like an ass, but please FIX THIS MOD.
I'm sure it came from a place of frustration, but I can assure you that nobody is going to be very inclined to help people that "sound like asses", especially when the mod works just fine. I personally love this version to death since it allows me to be much more flexible with what I can combine with it, compared to the more rigid requirements of old Devourments. Considering you're playing the AE version though, you really are just better off waiting for dependency updates unless you want to try the downgrading method, although sounds like it hasn't been going all that well for other people -- still up to you though.

Telling us that our help can't help you is not the most effective way to receive more, but here we go. What issue are you having presently?

I have known of quite a number of people downgrading successfully. There are several in the discord who might have relevant advice.

Oh, good to know! I knew it was at least possible, to the point of at least getting the mod running, but was almost certain it usually still had some issues occur. I guess I just might be thinking of how things were going closer to when the AE version was released, so very glad to hear it's much more effective lately!
