Description

HyThief — NPC Pickpocketing System

HyThief is a stealth-focused gameplay mod that allows players to crouch behind NPCs and attempt to pickpocket their inventory in real time.

Each item taken increases the chance of being caught, creating a risk-versus-reward system where greed becomes dangerous. Players must decide whether to take a small win or push their luck for more valuable items.

If the player is caught, the interaction immediately ends and nearby NPCs or guards react accordingly, turning a quiet theft into a high-risk situation.

Key Features:

  • Crouch-based pickpocket interaction system

  • Real-time item stealing from NPC inventories

  • Escalating detection chance per item taken

  • Immediate failure consequences with NPC/guard reactions

  • Seamless integration into normal gameplay (no dependencies required)

HyThief is designed to feel natural within the game world, adding tension and decision-making to every encounter without disrupting the core gameplay loop.

The system is actively being refined based on player feedback, with ongoing improvements to balance, NPC behavior, and overall clarity.
