Mod help: Realistic Needs and Diseases 2, resting fail

I go to use the resting power. My character starts to play the animation for half a sec, but then stands back up immediately, and there's no changes to stats and no messages. Anyone else run into this issue and know the solution?

Unless someone can come up with a response here (and there are a lot of people who use that mod, on the forums), your best bet is to ask on the mod page itself.

That was my first thought too, but there's no posting section on the nexus mod page. Link above.

Ah, crapola! I HATE when mod authors do not have a Posts or Bugs sections!!!!! Usually I avoid those mods, but this is a mod that has been around a long time and much used. Oh well, hopefully someone who is familiar with the mod and how it works will respond.
Good luck, Typhoon!

Yeah, why have no post section for a major mod? It's a difficult thing to google too because real needs has a ton of features and I keep getting people talking about other issues that are just worded similar. Should I ask another mod/skyrim site or just say f-it and download a whole other mod that does something similar and just hope I don't get the same bug/incompatibility? lol Your advice?

Well, you can ask on other sites, but this is basically the best place to ask - Reddit you never know who is responding, what they know, or whether they even own the game at all, so is pretty unreliable in the extreme; LoversLab has good people who know the game extremely well, but there is a large crossover between that site and here, so dont know if it would make much of a difference.

Best thing is to hope someone here posts.

Question, though - did that ever work properly, or did it start after a while? In addition, it might be useful to see what other mods you have, as perhaps something is conflicting with Realistic Needs and someone may be able to spot it. To post your load order, in the top left hand corner of LOOT under Game, choose Copy Load order and paste in the reply box here.

For Vortex users, Vortex keeps a .txt version of your mod load order here:
C:\Users\[your name]\AppData\Local\Skyrim Special Edition\loadorder.txt
Find it and then copy and paste it here.

so what this resting lesser power is supposed to do is make my character sit down, and they get some stat changes. I think (?) the wait menu is also supposed to pop up too. What happens for me is they play the intro animation to sit down, go into a sitting position, and then immediately they do re-stand animation after sitting down for only half of a second -- like they're doing bad squat reps at the gym or something lol. There's no message, menu, or stat changes either. I got the rest of the features in real needs 2 working just fine, and that mod is overall very heavy on the stat changes and very good about giving feed back in corner-messages when you do something. So I assume it's a conflict..?

I was about to post my load order, but I have like 400 mods including skse stuff. I think I'm just gonna try a different mod for this one minor feature.

These are just two alternatives you may wish to check out.
iNeed - Food Water and Sleep - Continued - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/19390
(this is the other popular needs mod that has been around a long time like Realistic Needs)

Or, for something that is not as micro-managed, there is this, with no animations (which I use and have used for the past several years):
Vitality Mode - Basic Needs - Eat Drink and Sleep - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/16308
