I WILL NOT BE UPDATING THIS MOD ANYMORE. IF ANYONE WANTS TO CLEAN THE FILE, REMOVE SOME OF THE REQUIREMENTS OR FIX ANY BUGS FEEL FREE TO DO SO AND RELEASE IT YOURSELF. MAKE SURE TO CREDIT ME, PinballJoe AND Saxxon91.

==BACKGROUND==I first learned about DUST watching Darth Xile's playthrough and shortly after discovered the original Understone mod for DUST and began my own playthrough. I loved the core concept of the original mod, but it was a pretty immersion killing for me how many NPCs were there and how big it was. That being said I hit the GECK and created "Understone ENHANCED" with permission from PinballJoe as his version is no longer being supported. This version of Understone was meant to provide a truly immersive DUST experience that will allow you to roleplay and interact with the NPCs in the DUST universe.==WHAT IT DOES==-Reduces the mod to three cells, one for the entrance shack, one for the town and one for the store.-Walls off all three lower tunnels to reduce the size of the main cell.-Scales back the population while retaining all previous vendors from the market district.-Moves the doctor to a new clinic in the main cell.-All vendors and other new named NPCs have unique dialog centered around DUST to add lore.-Multiple repeatable "gather" quests (Trade scrap metal for food, trade packs of cigarettes for ammo).-The player character will have a variety of ways to respond to NPCs (positive, negative, neutral) allowing them to roleplay and interact with people in the DUST universe in a way other than killing them.==CHANGE LOG==V1.3.5: Sheriff Johnson will now trade you stimpaks for tunneler hides.V1.3.0: Added new NPC Calvin Rogers who will trade you ammo for packs of cigarettes.V1.2.1: Jackson Steel quest rebalanced. Workbench and reloading bench moved to back of Understone in front of blocked tunnel.V1.2.0: Doc Chop now cures addictions (NOTE: he will charge you even if you're not addicted to anything).

Fixed drawn weapons bug for named NPCs.V1.0.1: Sheriff Johnson will always spawn in duster and hat. Fixed Lucy spawn bug. Fixed duplicate Doc Chop bug. Removed all unused cells from original Understone.V1.0.0: Initial release==QUESTS==-Steel For Steel: Jackson Steel needs to keep Understones generators up and running. He will trade you varying quality meals depending how much scrap metal you bring him. The more you bring at once, the better your reward will be.-Different Priorities: Calvin Rogers is a retired adventurer who has turned from smoking Fiends before The Fall to smoking cigarettes in Understone. He now has no use for his old ammo and will trade you your choice of 9mm, 10mm or 5.56mm ammo for packs of cigarettes. The more you bring at once, the better your reward will be.-Tunneler Bounty: Sheriff Johnson has declared it open season on tunnelers to keep the area around Understone safe. For every three tunneler hides your bring him, he'll give you a stimpak.==FUTURE==-More repeatable quests-Bug fixes-Updates until all NPCs are unique and have dialog related to DUST as well as their own stories.-Voice acting (far down the road).==BUGS==-Rarely upon entering the cell "Understone" the non-unique NPCs will have become stuck behind Old Ronnies counter. This is an issue which is inherited from the original Understone mod. To fix this, use Groovetron or leave the cell and wait one hour. (Sorry hardcore players).-Rarely non-unique NPCs will randomly pull out there weapons and look around for a hostile NPC who isn't there. This was inherited from the original Understone and is hardly noticeable now that I have prevented it from effecting the named NPCs.-Rarely Lucy Caldwell will sometimes get into one of the blocked tunnels. Simply wait and let her work her own way out or pull her out with Groovetron.-Lucy Caldwell usually has crippled limbs. (This adds an almost creepy vibe to the town as their one child is a limping around).==INSTALLATION==-Make sure Understone.esp comes before DUST in your load order.-Use only this version of Understone. Do NOT use it with the Saxxon91 version or the PinballJoe version.-Make sure you use a clean save if you are switching over from PinballJoe's version of Understone, or updating from a previous version of Understone Enhanced.
