Water Arrows and Dousable Sconces

Description
==============
Craftable Water Arrows and Extinguishable Sconces

By: MofoMojo
==============

Check videos for preview and the 1.1 update for dousing carried torches

==============
Description
==============
This is my 1.1 release, we'll still call it a beta, of craftable water arrows and extinguishable sconces. You may currently craft Water Arrows at the forge with Ale :) and 30 Iron Arrows. They do very little damage, so they're mostly
good for just putting out sconces.

Not only will it douse lit sconce torches, it will temporarily douse torches carried by others. The closest actor within a certain distance of the shot will be "doused" and have the flame of their torch extinguished.

==============
Features
==============
Craft Water Arrows and then douse torches in sconces from afar.
Temporarily Douse torches carried by actors (30 seconds)


================
Current Version Changes
================
1.1
Includes ability to douse carried torches from nearby actors when the arrow hits its target.
Fixed Spelling errors.

1.0
Beta - Initial release. Place holder art for arrows, and need a better recipe.

---------
==In Game==
---------
Craft water arrows at the forge with Ale and 30 Iron Arrows for 30 Water Arrows.

---------------
==Other Notes==
---------------
I highly recommend using HaploTR's Dynamic Torches mod which replaces over 700 torches in the game with removable torch sconces. See http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=8070. This should be compatible with that mod and should really extend its usefulness.

==Special Thanks==
------------------
I forgot to include this in the 1.0 update (it's in the description on the nexus though). A special thanks to two individuals on the Bethsoft forums who gave me some item swapping suggestions, .NIF editing suggestions, and script tweaks.

tjardokrijt - Yes and no. Actually it started out with me trying to figure out how to douse the torches for a spell that I was making for my Vampire mod, Belua Sanguinare Revisited (only on the Nexus), but as soon as I got the concept down I figured I was certainly inspired by Thief to go ahead and make a version with Arrows instead of a spell.

Great idea, I wished this was part of the game! Inspired by the 'Thief' games I suppose? ;)

any light source does not work. It only works with torch sconces (not the braziers) and carried torches.

Any light source I shot at did nothing. I shot from all angles including from ontop and still did nothing. Will have to unsub until I know it works.

Thanks Fred. I'd likely have to create points around wells and water that you could use to fill the bottles with water. There are some survival mods out there that I may check into to see if they actually use water, and how they're implemented. Good idea though!

This mod looks freaking great and reminds me so much of thief. I just hope you can refine the hit detection and the water effects but other than that I love it! =D

Why not make/use some empty bottles (there are many empty vine bottle ingame, and use it where there is water, or at a usable well. It could be great, to have somme real water, not ale.

Your mod is a great idea... Good work.

Thanks IcyDeadPeople! If anyone has suggestions on a better recipe I'm open. While Ale is not typically flammable the irony isn't lost on me. I don't really want the player to have to go through too much trouble to create them ...

Looks great Mofo, will definitely try it!
