     1. Description

*****************************************************************

DLC Timing allows you to set a variety of conditions that must be met before the official DLC will start.
This mod replaces the default starting conditions with ones you can set for yourself. Change the starting
conditions for Automatron, Far Harbor, Nuka World and Vault-Tec Workshop independently to suit your
playthrough.

Key Features:

* Not Until You're Ready: Delay DLC from starting until you've reached your desired level. Is
  level 20 too low to start Automatron? Use the MCM included in this mod to increase it. Or lower the
  minimum level if you want to start immediately.

* Integration with the Main Quest: Define a main quest or faction quest that needs to be completed before
  the DLC is allowed to start. If you don't want to start the DLC until after the main quest, set a quest
  condition to stop them from starting. Alternatively, you can remove quest start conditions from DLC such
  as Far Harbor.

* A Matter of Time: An option to begin a DLC after a specified number of in-game days has also been included.

*****************************************************************

     5. Change List

1.1    - Renamed the ba2 file.

1.2    - DLC Timing should now be compatible with UFO4P.


*****************************************************************

     6. F.A.Q.

*****************************************************************

Q. It didn't work!
A. You need to start a new playthrough in order to be able to control DLC startup conditions
   with this mod, as several script files from the DLC had to be modified. Also keep in mind
   that other mods such as the unofficial patch may modify the same script files modified by
   DLC Timing, so make sure DLC Timing comes after these mods.

Q. When does it check whether it's ready to start a DLC?
A. For most DLC, startup conditions are checked whenever you travel to a new location. For
   Far Harbor this occurs whenever you travel to a settlement.

Q. Traveling to Quincy Quarries automatically starts the Vault-Tec DLC.
A. The Vault-Tec DLC originally starts on its own when you travel to this location. I can
   change this in a future update, but for the sake of keeping things as compatible as
   possible i'm trying to minimize the number of changes that need to be made.
