This is a weird situation that sometimes happens. It doesn't cause CTD, ILS, or any game bugs afaik. BUT, My load order is established. If I upgrade, I always makes sure my load order is the same as it was. Sometimes deploying the mods and sorting the plugins change the load order a bit, but I change it back. The mods that might switch places have absolutely nothing to do with each other, so the original problem shouldn't be an issue. And I digress... I have the following follower mods installed: 5b Kaidan 5e Kaidan fixes 60 Inigo 6b Buttons, the little dog follower. Normally, if I open the console Kaidan's ID will be 5bxxxxxx, Inigo will be 60xxxxxx, and Buttons will be 6bxxxxxx. That's as it should be. But sometimes, Kaidan will be 5Exxxxxx, Inigo will be 6Bxxxxxx, and Buttons will be 6Cxxxxxx. Mods that load before Kaidan might also show a change in their mod index, and at least one mod that loads after Buttons is the proper mod index. These mod index changes are only reflected in game!!!! And only sometimes! I can double check the mod index in Vortex and LOOT; they correctly reflect 5B ... 60 ... 6B. As I said, the game plays normally. I don't notice the change right away unless I need to do something in console, so I know that I have saved the game with the 'fake' mod index numbers. The 'fake' mod index numbers are not permanent. I might have to quit to desktop and reload a couple of times, but I can get back to the correct mod index numbers. I save and continue playing until the next time I notice the shift. I don't know if the other mods change to the same fake numbers, but Kaidan always changes from 5B to 5E. Inigo and Buttons are always bumped to the same fake numbers, as well. I finally decided to lock the lad order for these followers in Vortex to see if it prevents the change from happening in the future. Maybe it's a Kaidan/Kaidan fixes thing, but I don't know why that would affect other mods. Since I can play my game just fine, I don't consider it broken. But it is weird and I wondered if anybody else ever experienced this occurrence? 9/1/21 - happened again. Locking the load order didn't help. I'll say it again, WEIRD.
