I do not follow you on this. It is grammatically confusing, or I am somehow not all here... please disambiguate.
Let's say a fear caused someone to drink or use drugs to cope. Would scripting to specifically eliminate fear causing destructive coping mechanisms be possible? E2 never brought up anything that made me want to hide in a glass. AOSI was correlated with me drinking more, and that behavior disappeared with 2.1 & 2.2. I wonder if the lack of healing scripting in 2.3 will bring the drinking back. Hopefully I dealt with those issues in the time I ran 2.1 & 2.2. I just wonder if it's "fear in general" or specifically deep-seated fears that are bringing out destructive behaviors.
Well the scripting to eliminate fear has no impact on the destructive coping mechanisms directly. It affects them as a side effect; either potentially triggering them as some fear or fears is/are worked through, or eliminating them as they are either worked through or overcome.
It depends on how many fears are being worked on and what the specific triggers etc. are.
If you notice those behaviors coming back, then we'll have to introduce 2.4. I suspect, however, that you may find that there are no such fears left to need coping with.
