Reduced Armor Penalties

Description
This mod greatly reduces most of the outrageous penalties of wearing any armor.

I felt like many armors had way to many negative multiplers, especially if you wanted to go all out and fill every armor slot with heavy armor. In the base game, wearing full samurai armor with a chain shirt gave you some seriously damaging combat speed effects. Heavy armor also has massive negative attack, defense, stealth, and ranged skills, putting a hefty burden on any user of heavier armors

To generalize what I've changed, all negative dexterity multipliers have been swapped for a very small negative combat speed multiplier, attack skill affects have been removed except in really thicc armors like Crab suits, but they still have very small attack skill effect, like -1 or -2. Finally a ton of armor has more armor coverage, especially in the stomach. For some reason the devs really didn't like stomach armor coverage.

And lastly, this is my first time modding Kenshi, so there's bound to be some mistakes, if you find any leave a comment.

No. I made the mod by manually sorting through every armor item in the game, modded armors have their own stats that wouldn't be effected. You'd have to load the armor mod in the Forgotten Construction Set and edit the armors yourself.
Hi creator! this nod works only with vanilla armor or modded armor works too?

Just have only the new one activated in the launcher. I don't know what would happen if you used both but it probably wouldn't be good.

Thank you very much! Thank you for uploading the MOD!
By the way, after subscribing to the new MOD, do I need to cancel the old MOD? Or do I need to subscribe to both and put the new mod after the old one?

Reupload in the previous comment. Also I'm going to take the opportunity for shameless self-promotion.

Hello, I see you are planning to remake this MOD, when will it be completed? I have subscribed to this MOD now, do I need to import it later? Or will it automatically replace it?@the big m

Gonna have to remake it. I uploaded this mod on my old PC.

Haven't updated since upload in 2019. Thinking about getting back into kenshi soon I'll probably update it since. Kenshi's armor system hasn't appeared to have updated much so I would think it probably still works but the couple guys asking for an update says otherwise.
