Is this somehow relevant or it's safe to skip it and stick with the original version?

It's safe to use the original, but I altered the mod page to point to this updated version. I don't think this mod is a master for the Step CR Patch, but if you get a LOOT error saying otherwise later on, post back here and use the nexus version instead.

Thank you.

I was about to install Improved Traps, which includes Improved Traps - Follower Safety Patch. Since this patch overwrites the newer one included on the unofficial update linked above I got a bit confused. Like you've said it may have little to no difference, I'm just pointing it for future reference.

Sorry for bringing it here without trying to figure it by myself. It's been years since I don't mess with Skyrim and I don't want to make potentially wrong assumptions this early in the guide. I'm sure that in the following weeks I will remember and also learn a lot of stuff, but for now I'm still a bit slow.

I'm not understanding the question entirely. What exactly is the issue? Can you specify what files you mean with links? Does using the alternate you linked 'break' something else? If so, then I will revert the mod link back to nexus.

All links are in the message, I've just checked and they are working.

Improved Traps - Follower Safety Patch contains the file Scripts/TrapBear.pex, but is older and not the same as the TrapBear.pex included in the unofficial FTS update which I've mentioned in my first message in this topic.

The unofficial FTS update was never mentioned in S.T.E.P., the guide itself brings no confusion at all. But since we started discussing about this unofficial FTS update here I noticed what I explained above, that another mod in the guide contains this file that needs to overwrite or to be overwritten in a particular order. There is no issue other than the confusion about which TrapBear.pex file to use. Again this confusion is not the guide's fault, just to make clear.

I haven't finished the guide, so I can't say if there are issues related to this file or not.

The issue is we don't know what kryptopyr has added to the scripts. Improved Traps patch just needs to be updated, if it wasn't already. No telling when that will happen; kryptopyr has slowed down with rolling out updates and new content. I could dive in and take a look, but I don't have my system set up for scripting at the moment.

@Jarda

Based on the file dates, insaneplumbers version is the only one with the bugfix. I reached out to mitchalek on Nexus a couple months ago asking if he would care to update his mod with the fix, and he said he would look into it ... not yet though.

Unless a file name has changed with insaneplumbers version or this mod is a master for the patches, I would say that his version is the 'best' one and would not expect any compatibility issues. But we'd like to hear back if there are unforeseen issues when you get there.

FWIW, I decompiled the script provided by Improved Traps - Follower Safety Patch and it does include the fix.
