PLAYSTATION UPDATE AND 1.16.236.0 (FREE LANES) COMPATIBILITY This creation requires no changes for the new game update, PC and Xbox players can continue to use the existing version.
DESCRIPTION Various NPCs in Neon, as well as one on The Key, were supposed to use the "dazed" animation as they've been taking Aurora - if you've heard some NPCs say "the colors!" as you pass them, it's them. But the animation is broken in-game and those NPCs instead just stand there. The animation itself can be fixed by repurposing an unused animation keyword from Shattered Space. This is just an override for the furniture item so it will be safe to remove if Bethesda ever fixes the original animation keyword. As a bonus it's usable by the player, 'cause why not, but you'd need to "encourage" the Aurora user to move in order to use it yourself (hint: try the Incapacificator 3000)
Note, while the CK and xEdit don't show the standing "suffering" animation to be in use (it's defined as a furniture animation but isn't placed anywhere) if this is somehow incorrect it's possible that you might see vortex phantoms taking Aurora occasionally. I don't blame them, it isn't easy being a phantom.
This is from my "xtcrefugee's miscellaneous small mods" collection on Nexus Mods. It was requested for Xbox so is being shared here too. Requires Shattered Space.

Alters two vendors, Monika Blum and Daisuke Levitz, to allow them to buy contraband and stolen goods, and increases their credits to the same level as a Trade Authority vendor.

Gives Rosie Tannehill doctor dialogue, so she can heal you & provide medical supplies. She won't occupy a crew slot, and this small plugin won't count towards your master limit.

Allows the player to command followers and other allies to do things, as was possible in previous Bethesda games. Also allows you to access the inventories of unnamed crew.

The mod plays the landing animation when the game skips it. But only if your ship is in orbit of the same planet you want to land on.
