A Reason To Sleep, Eat, And Drink V.5

You know bartender, I'm glad I ain't a Vampire or Werewolf. As a mortal, there are no down sides.
I pretty much can stay up forever and I don't need to feast on flesh or worry about the sun.
I kind of pity them poor beings.

What are you talking about lad! I think you've had just a wee bit too much mead.
There isn't a warrior I know who don't get some rest before battle, least their strength fail them when it is most needed. Nor is there any mage out there that can cast a spell on an empty stomach.
Even the masters of the voice need to keep throat moist if they want to shout properly.
Now out with you and straight to bed or to you want the bouncer to remind you that you really are mortal?

Info:

This mod makes the effects of Tired, Hungry, and Thirsty accure slowly to the player if they don't sleep, eat, and drink.
Each effect will show up in the active effects as they come into play.
The player will become Tired 16 game hours after waking. It will start with a 10 point lost to Stamina for the first 4 hours then the player will become Very Tired which will drop Stamina by 20 points for 3 hour. After that 40 for 2 hours, 80 for 1, 160 for 1 hour then finally - 500 to Stamina.
Only sleeping will remove the effect.
The same numbers apply for Hungry except it starts after eating. Different food will keep the effect away for a different amount of time. The time will be listed under the effect of Full in the active effects menu.
Hungry causes a lost of Magicka points. Eating will remove the effect.
Thirsty works the same as Hungry except it reduces the time between Shouts.
If you don't want to always drink mead, I added some Plain Water for sellers to sell.
Becoming a Werewolf or vampire should remove these effects from the player.
However, because the act of Eating, Sleeping, or Drinking put the effects back on the player after removing them to keep the process going. If as a Werewolf or Vampire you accidently do one of these things, the effect may go back on the character. As a fail safe, changing into beast form as a Werewolf will remove the effects from the player again. The fail safe for the Vampire is by going to sleep. This should remove the effects from the character again.
I don't know if curing the player's character of being a Vampire or Werewolf will bring Tired, Hungry, and Thirst back or not. Anyways, after getting the cure, just by eating, sleeping, and drinking once will start the effects up again.
These ability effect are added to the player of start of the game, but you don't need a new character to use this mod.
Just eat, sleep, and drink once to start the effect of being mortal.

Let me know if there's any glitches with a Vampire and Werewolf.
There is a small bugs with the length of the effect when using Wait option but it doesn't effect game play much.
Have fun playing,


V.5 Changes the way the effect appy to the player in order to remove gliches of doubled effects.
Under active effect players will now see if the are Full or Hungry, Rested or Sleepy, Quenched or Thirsty.
While the effects of Hungy, Sleepy, and Thirsty are still slow detrimental, player will not be able to see what stage they are at because of the changes made for correcting the glitch. If you have the old version 4 installed, you may need to uninstall it before installing v.5.

Note: For now, this mod does not work with foods from Drangonborn and Hearthstone.
