Uses SkyPatcher to add salt to the vendor containers of various NPCs, notably inn keepers at major and minor locations, the caravans, the random encounter hunters, the Dawnguard factions, most general traders, orc strongholds, and even the spouse trader!
Rationale:
I was playing with Gourmet as part of Gate of Sovengarde collection. I had the werewolf start, and ended up halfway to Riften, at level 1, covered in guts and blood and dirt, with a speechcraft skill that was negligible, and no septims to my name. I was hungry. I had a piece of venison, but I wanted to cook it. I needed salt. I couldn't get into Riften (too poor, and too blood-covered to succeed the speech check from Daddy Bryn's gate shakedown), so I tried the caravan; they didn't stock salt. Made my way to Shor's Stone; no salt for sale. Made my way to Darkwater Crossing; no salt for sale. Encountered a hunter who made a living of the land; no salt for sale... see the pattern?
As proof of the Big Urban Conspiracy, Gourmet only makes salt more accessible at city inns. Salt should not be a scarce ingredient in a coastal province, moreso if it's a required ingredient for cooking. All those NPCs also need salt to cook their daily fare! So this mod adds varying amounts of salt to various vendors across the province, from a few pinches to hunters, to lots to city traders.
It's a SkyPatcher configuration file, so it will run at runtime, and there is no need for plugin patchin'
The configuration file is extensively commented, so check it out!
