There is the addon "No, thank you" which is great, bloody marvelous, excellent etc etc
It has an option to prohibit interactions with insects. You get what i mean?

Dear Zenimax (@ZOS), dear addon authors,
could you please, pretty please, add a keyboard shortcut enabling/disabling initiating dialogues with Companions.
my problem is Ken and Barbie (who are basically good boy and gal) have a trend to stand over lootable bodies/containers
and it takes SEVERAL attempts to position right to get my loot instead of listening to "wanna chat?" by my talkaive Companions.

This is extremely annoying. Very annoying. Hardly companions could get mote brains to stop resetting bosses,
standing in red, preventing from looting, so the magic button to stop interacting with them seems to be the best option
(unsummoning companion before looting is not OK as this prevents from Companions gear drops).

Please, please, make this "prevent companions interactions" button/addon.
Thank you.

    I'm hoping they add something like a press and hold before you can interact with a companion, that way the quick button tap to loot something wont accidentally drag you into an unwanted conversation.

    I have noticed that if there is enough lag, I don't know that Mirri has leaped in front of me to save me from whatever it is that I think I am activating. I can clearly see that I am going to pick that node and instead, I get Mirri. :rage:

    Yes. Yes. Yes. Trying to loot and talking to Bastion for the xteenth time is just no fun anymore. If this isn't an option, there have to be ways to path them better to avoid interactable objects. Also on this topic, they're had to be ways to path them in combat so they don't reset bosses or run to the complete opposite side of a dolmen or boss fight and out of my healing range. I know it's not an MMO, but in Dragon Age, you can set battle tactics for your companions. At the very least we could do something similar here. In companion menu, an option for how far they will go from us would be very helpful.

    Yeah. I have this problem on XBox. I wanna know who decided that the Activate, Jump, and Talk-to-Mirri-from-anywhere-on-Nirn would ever be placed on the same button . :smile:

    I think it could be easily fixed, at least somewhat, if they add a delay for the prompt to show when you approach your companion for interaction. Something like 1.5 or 2 seconds.

    i bind Num * for "Blacklist Target" addon keybind and having companion targeted this just toggles enable/disable interaction...
    Excellent, excellent addon. It's fantastic how addons fix a lot of built-in snags.

    Thanks so much for posting this link. Quick question: Does enabling the /nointeract name to blacklist the NPC (aka Mirri) block the ability to speak with her during her quests? Or basically, any scripted questline in which Mirri will have a quest marker over her head (like the one to help her mother)? Will the quest marker still show if she's been blacklisted?

    I targeted Mirri with the /nointeract Mirri command. Even though she's now on the blacklist, I'm still loosing reputation with her for trying to harvest insects. I targeted a random torchbug and blacklisted it. And this had the exactly undesireable and predicatable result: my toon could no longer harvest or interact with them. Which completely defeats the point.

    Did I misunderstand the nature of the /nointeract command? I thought targeting/blacklisting Mirri would allow me to do actions she dislikes (harvesting bugs, using boats, committing murder etc) without loss of rep with her?

    All the no interaction addon does is make it so that you cannot activate a listed companion. They will still make comments, get XP, gain and lose rapport, fight, etc. It does not block you summoning them or dismissing them from a quick menu key or Collections. They can talk to you, but you can't talk to them. :smile:

    I have to say that I completely agree with having some sort way to turn the companion interaction off. Sounds like someone created an add-on for PC but that does me no good on PS. Also ZOS need to add a NO Companion dialog to the list. I have all mine set in Infrequent and they still talk to much.

    There is the addon "No, thank you" which is great, bloody marvelous, excellent etc etc
    It has an option to prohibit interactions with insects. You get what i mean?

    Dear Zenimax (@ZOS), dear addon authors,
    could you please, pretty please, add a keyboard shortcut enabling/disabling initiating dialogues with Companions.
    my problem is Ken and Barbie (who are basically good boy and gal) have a trend to stand over lootable bodies/containers
    and it takes SEVERAL attempts to position right to get my loot instead of listening to "wanna chat?" by my talkaive Companions.

    This is extremely annoying. Very annoying. Hardly companions could get mote brains to stop resetting bosses,
    standing in red, preventing from looting, so the magic button to stop interacting with them seems to be the best option
    (unsummoning companion before looting is not OK as this prevents from Companions gear drops).

    Please, please, make this "prevent companions interactions" button/addon.
    Thank you.

    Until then:

    I installed NoInteract, blacklisted Bastian but it didn't work? He's still getting in my way and I'm still accidentally interacting with him.

    Are you sure you properly selected Bastian, and not something else?

    i'd suggest binding a key for "Blacklist Target" addons keybindings
    it happens Companions are considered to be MirriElendis and BastianHallix (no spaces!) from addons' point of view.

    Have to say... just installed this addon and it works like a charm!! I did a keybind for 'Blacklist Target' and targeted both Mirri and Bastian. Now, I don't have their interact key in my face all the time and if I want to change something in their settings, I can toggle their interact back on.

    Yay. Hopefully this helps.
    Companions will now run in front of your character less frequently when you come to a stop.

    jeah well...we hoped and we once again got nothing ^^

    few examples...
    Dolmen chests, companion still first interaction
    After travelling to a wayshrine, wanting to use it to travel again, without moving...companion first interaction aswell

    the problem is, that the interact hitbox is too large overall
    If I run in a certain direction and stop, the companion will come so close to me, that the interact hitboxarea comes in front of me, and I get the interact option.
    Either decrease the interact hitbox alot, or dont let the companion come this close.
