Enemy AI - Tactics - NPC Healing

Hide the following:

XFO - 9db - Enemies - NPC Healing - med.esp
XFO - 9dc - Enemies - NPC Healing - high.esp

Optional (Advanced) Tweaking Available:

Run GECK through MO2
Select File -> Data…
Double-click FalloutNV.esm (An X should appear in the adjacent box)
Double-click XFO - 9da - Enemies - NPC Healing - low.esp and select Set as Active File then select OK
Wait for the GECK to finish loading
In the Object Window, select the All lising, then input aaForcehealDebug into the Filter box and hit enter
Double-click on the entry that shows up
Find the entry in the script the reads as follows:

if HealYes == 1
         pltarget.additem stimpak 1
         pltarget.equipitem stimpak 1
         pltarget.playidle 3rdpspecialidlestimpak
         set justHealed to 1
         if getrandompercent < 30
                 pltarget.forceflee
        endif
endif

Replace it with the following (make sure the indentation stays the same):

if HealYes == 1
         pltarget.cios stimpak
         pltarget.playidle 3rdpspecialidlestimpak
         set justHealed to 1
endif

Save and script and close out of the window
Save and exit from the GECK

This edit directly applies the healing spell to NPCs instead of adding a Stimpak to their inventory to prevent weapon bugs

- NPCs use more cover, smarter tactics, more creature differences, and NPC healing
