Yes' XP on Backstab

Description
Every backstab you do with a knife will grant you exp in Sneak. This amount is totally configurable in Sandbox Options.

Basically the best way to grind Sneak right now is by just walking towards a huge horde while on a second floor or something. This can be boring and for some it can feel cheesy. Because of this I created this new way of grinding Sneak XP. Now you can be rewarded by actually sneaking behind unalerted foes.

Have fun moving in the shadows!

By the way, I created a Stealth mod which reworks the entire stealth system. Check it out! Yes' Improved Stealth

Thanks for the mod! Can this be added mid-save?

For some reason this mod doesn't work for me, I quietly approach the zombie from behind and strike, but very little life is taken away and a normal sharp blow occurs. I use it together with this mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3053929034 . What am i doing wrong?

@AM they are, your character need to be strong enough, at least lvl 3 short blade and the target must be weak enough to be oneshot, so sometimes you'll have to stab one or two time before you can 'backstab' (you don't have to be behind their back to do that actually, just close enough) and ofc its theres more than one zombie seeing you, you cannot backstab, but i think there's a mod that fix that

now if only there was an accompanying mod that gave you a nice burst of short blade xp on stealth stabs as well so it wouldn't be so much of a painful chore with knife type weapons to level them up :') great mod

if only backstabs were consistent.

@Yes Yeah you should really release the fix as an updated version, and link back to the original with credit. Stuff like this happens all the time with mods, people abandon their stuff and it gets adopted.
