[ReqInq] Pip-Boy & Interface Changing Mod

[Request] [Inquiry]

So, I've seen a few Pip-Boy replacements out there. Those are pretty cool. However, they made me think. In-game, you can get the Pimp-Boy 3 Billlion, an variant Pip-Boy with a different look. This is the request part. I'd like to have something, in-game, that lets you get a special promotional Pip-Boy...a Nuka-Boy. In case that isn't clear, a Nuka-Cola themed Pip-Boy...red, white, and logos. I suppose the easiest way to have it in game would be to place a broken one someplace, and have it repaired either by Mick (who gives you the Pimp Boy), or one of Mr. House's robots, since it's a Robco product.

Now, the inquiry is twofold. First off, can a pip-boy model be given an added effect? For example, the effect of the Food Sanitizer from Fallout 3...or even a rad-cleaning effect on food. I would like it if the Nuka-Boy were able to make food better for you. Or, at the least, to improve the healing and reduce the rads from Nuka-Cola products. (If this can be done, and going with my idea above, perhaps a split where Mick will fix it with a built-in sanitizer, using salvaged parts, and the House robot restores its original function, which is more useful, but only works with Nuka-Cola.)

Lastly, are there any mods that change the sorting in the menus? For example, adding a separate category for food? Or one for bulletmaking supplies? If it is possible to change the way the that the menu is sorted, could it be made Pip-Boy specific, such that different models could be optimised in certain ways? For example, a "Military Issue Pip-Boy" with a separate interface for weapons from other items, divided into Guns (Regular, Energy, and launchers), Grenades, Mines, Ammo, and ammo making supplies.

If that were possible, I would absolutely love to see a mod that added lots of different Pip-Boys!
