+NPC Combat Control mod (Lite version) for sfall 3.8.x
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+A script-based mod of the removed built-in ControlCombat option, offering more features and improvements.
+Features:
+- allows you to take control of your party members or other NPCs during combat
+  (unlike in newer 4.x versions, controlled critters cannot use Sneak skill in combat)
+- configurable list of perk IDs for perks being inherited from the player (optional, not all perks can work)
+- allows the player to gain a positive reputation when killing NPCs while controlling other critters (optional)
+- a notification box to display the name of the controlled critter above the interface bar (optional)
+
+
+Requires sfall 3.8.40 or higher.
+
+To use, copy gl_partycontrol_lite.int to your scripts folder and sfall-mods.ini (in ItemHighlight_Lite) to the mods folder in the same directory as sfall.
+Create the mods folder if it does not exist.
