NPCs have a 0-1 scale of Alert, 0 being Unaware, and 1 being Alert. This mod scales up NPC reaction to events in a more realistic manner and allows for those event to have a longer lasting impact on NPC behavior. Timing windows (grace) for suspicious and/or aggressive behavior have been reduced, allowing for quicker escalation to crime. Crimes and violence will increase NPC Nervousness and Alertness for longer periods of time, and the NPC memory of events has been greatly extended.
