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.
