SR's Military Backpack Restoration Mod

Description
MOD INFO:
A tiny mod which restores the Military Backpack's weight reduction stat from 87% to 90%.


BACKGROUND:
The Military Backpacks used to have 90% weight reduction. However, a recent update by The Indie Stone, nerfed this to 87%, for reasons unknown.
My mod simply restores its weight reduction stat back to 90%, like how it used to be, for those who prefer it.


SAFE TO USE IN EXISTING SAVES?:
Absolutely. The mod can be used safely, in both the old and the new saves, no matter what.


UPDATING BAGS IN EXISTING SAVES:
The mod does not affect/change any existing / already spawned Military Backpacks in your existing saves. If they already have spawned with 87% weight reduction prior to installing and activating the mod, then they will retain their old values. However, the mod offers you the option to refresh them from 87% to 90% anytime, at your will, if you want. With a very simple click:
1) In your existing save file, find the old Military Backpack you want to refresh and empty it. Take out any items it may have inside.
2) Right-mouse click on that backpack and choose "Refresh Military Backpack" option from the context menu. This will refresh the backpack's weight reduction stat from the old 87% to the new 90%. Simple as that. Pretty cool, isn't it?


MOD UNINSTALL:
My mod can freely be uninstalled/unsubscribed anytime, safely, and without problems. The 90% weight reduction stat of your Military Backpacks will be retained after uninstalling the mod, because the data are saved per item, not per mod, nor per save, nor per game! This means, you can conveniently use my mod to get your favorite Military Backpacks into having 90% weight reduction and then uninstall/unsubscribe it.
Obviously, after my mod is unsubscribed/disabled, any future Military Backpacks that may spawn, will have 87% weight reduction instead of 90%.


MOD COMPATIBILITY:
This is a very simple mod which adjusts just the Military Backpack's weight reduction stat. No compatibility issues may be found. If any are found, please let me know.

Can you make one that buffs the military backpack further? playing with the mod that allows wearing duffel bags with backpacks and the military backpacks minimal gain gets overshadowed. It would be cool if it had 95% weight reduction and like 1.5x capacity!

Sorry, Mike, but I cannot extend support to include backpacks from mods. My mod simply updates the vanilla Military Backpack. Nothing else. A good idea is to ask the Attach Items to Backpacks's author to consider this.

Any chance you could make this compatible with "Attach Items to Backpacks (build 41)." Currently doesn't change the weight of the backpacks with attachment from it. Thanks
