This is the Unofficial Starfield Patch version. If you do NOT use the Unofficial Starfield Patch, install the standard "Slightly Stealthier Companions and Crew" Creation instead.

In the base game and DLCs, most companions and crew already have the "Doesn't affect stealth meter" flag, so their presence doesn't constantly give you away while you're sneaking. Seven named characters were missed, and they light up your detection meter just by standing near you.

This Creation sets that flag on the seven companions and crew who are missing it, so your followers are far less likely to blow your cover. This version is built on top of the Unofficial Starfield Patch and forwards its fixes to Barrett, Sarah, Andreja, and Muria so they are not reverted.

WHO THIS FIXES:

  • Barrett
  • Sarah Morgan
  • Sam Coe
  • Andreja
  • Muria Siarkiewicz
  • Adoring Fan
  • Autumn MacMillan

Every other named companion and crew member already has the flag in the base game and is left untouched. The generic hireable specialists are out of scope and not changed.

PLEASE NOTE This removes the constant detection penalty from a follower simply being near you. It does not make followers perfectly stealthy. They can still walk into enemies, trip mines, etc. The only way to guarantee a follower never gives you away is to leave them behind. This just stops them being a liability the moment they spawn at your side.

REQUIREMENTS The Unofficial Starfield Patch. This Creation lists it as a dependency. Do not install this version without it.

NOT USING THE UNOFFICIAL STARFIELD PATCH? Install the standard "Slightly Stealthier Companions and Crew" Creation instead. Do not run both versions at once.

COMPATIBILITY Light, override-only plugin. It edits only the stealth flag on seven NPC records and nothing else. It will conflict with any other mod that edits the same seven records; whichever loads last wins.
