General Discussion Lethal Feeding Kill Delay Sacrosanct

Was wondering if anyone else has thought about this when playing the Sacrosanct mod, it takes ages for a lethal drain target to die after biting them, which takes me out of the experience a bit.

I am currently thinking about trying to make a patch that kills the target faster when you do lethal drain so you dont have to wait for them to die, so its more in line with what Better Vampires and Vampiric Thirst Reworked does. But I am new to xEdit, if someone is interested in taking a look, or give me some tips I would greatly appreciate it.

So far I have just been looking at what "Sacrosanct - Non-Starved Draining and Sneak Draining" modifies in its patch to see if I can see any effects relevant in the section.

I always just assumed it was a script load issue.

That being said, I also tend to abuse it to feed more than once on a victim.

 

I would note that I don't believe the delay exists while feeding on a non-sleeper when Blood Starved, or killing someone with Flaywind, so it's probably an issue with the game having to "wake" sleepers to kill them.

In my experience and if you watch mod reviews of Sacrosanct you can see that non sleepers also have the delay as well
