Authentic Exchanges: AI Tweaks for Immersive Interactions for NPCs
Community Rating
Description
Many players have noticed that Starfield NPCs can often feel annoying or robotic. This mod reworks the core game settings for NPC social and sandbox AI, making them more reactive and engaging—so they actually have more than just one brain cell to share all the quests in the Settled System!
Inspired by the acclaimed AI Overhaul by the talented SpiderAkira, I’m also planning to implement custom schedules for NPCs. This will allow them to lead dynamic lives, moving beyond the monotonous routine of vendors staying at their stores 24/7.
Performance?
- From Initial testing no Fps Loss can be detected
Mod Reccomendations
- For those that are PC users I recommend if you haven't already to download Engine fixes and enable these setting in the StarfieldEngineFixes.ini that way you only have npcs talk to you only when you exchange eye contact with each other.

Strip any equipped armor or clothes from your fallen foes! Or simply loot-all with 1 button. Steal items from knocked-out targets instead of pick-pocketing and waking them up!

The #1 Leveled Enemies mod on Nexus (via inclusion in Royal Galaxy) finally comes to Creations! Enemies you come across will be unique and fun to fight, even at high levels.

Makes the Chronomark watch visible on your left wrist, as it always should have been. Also equips the watch on other specific members of Constellation.
