It globally changes all armors. Only armors added by mods aren't affected.

Hi, is this working for only the players or the AI too ?

Thank you!

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?
@the big m

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.

Does this mod still work?

Update Pls

@douglas.nomsn i understood you

great mod btw, thanks

douglas.nomsn is on some serious crack

I can't understand you boss.

Hi, testing here, deleting several mods from the list found that yours is not. I haven't solved the problem yet, but your mod is great, very useful, it really makes usable armor, if anyone has any questions, I congratulate you. I RECOMMEND. But I ask you, how do I put him back? I uninstalled, reinstalled, did import and it is not active, although it is in the selected list right. Any suggestion? I want your mod working again is very good.

I have no idea what you mean.

Hello, please, sorry for the inconvenience, but could you or someone tell me if there was a conflict with training mod or there was a bug in skill development?

no idea, the game has probably been updated with some new features that this mod doesn’t consider

Excuse me. I call that special attack that new attack you can make by reaching a certain level of skill. Does it suffer penalties with this mod?

I have no idea what a special attack is or I forgot because I haven’t been involved with kenshi modding in several months.

Hi, I didn't quite understand when you talked about the skills. Did you remove the special attacks? I want to enjoy armor without penalties, but I also want to enjoy all attacks.

Heart protector did have x0.00, it's been fixed, however I checked all samurai armor and ancient parts of their sets and they're all good.

heart protector and samurai armor have 0.00x stealth in their stats

My finger may of slipped and changed a variable to 0 on a specific armor item, if so what armor are you wearing. Or maybe you're just wearing low quality armor, something that I couldn't figure out how to do when I made this mod was how to keep variables consistant instead of going down as armor quality went down.

Stealth penalites should still be there but should be way lower then in the base game, but if you're rocking prototype samurai armor your stealth will still be extremely low.

I haven't played Kenshi in several months so I'll probably be rusty as hell with the FCS but I'll give it a look.

not really sure if it was this mod or not but armors are making stealth 0.00x which means I can't stealth in heavy armor basically

While I find the negative traits of certain bits quite overwhelming, I'm not sure that this degree of leniency is quite what I'm looking for. I honestly kinda find it interesting to look through pieces of armor I come across or craft and see what all I can don on my faster fighters without hindering them too much. Nevertheless, a good mod for those looking for a more casual approach to outfitting their squads.

But, as for the "For some reason the devs really didn't like stomach armor coverage," bit - I can answer this for you. It was done for a realism approach. Archaic armors (and even modern armor, to a degree) suffers from the same issue in terms of abdomen protection... The majority of human flexibility, especially in a melee, stems from the waist/abdomen. Putting bulk, particularly rigid plates, over top of the stomach heavily impacts mobility.

No Im talking about noodles, I love your mod and thank you for it but people who complain but dont add anything annoy me.

what do you mean? all the armor penalites where in the base unmodded game

wait did that guy really just ♥♥♥♥♥ about something he didnt have to add into his game?

Very nice, so many mods aim to make it more difficult or more real, some times you just want a mod to make life a little easer thanks!

If you add up the weights of each individual piece of armor in the Samurai Armor set (Chainmail shirt included), it comes up to over 50kg. Which translates to about 115lbs of metal exoskeleton.

That doesn't count the weight of your weapon. The weight of your backpack and your items.

Although I see where you're coming from I wouldn't say it makes every other armor obsolete, 0.9 modifers for legplates and armor still make it better for your archers to not wear heavy armor, same goes for sneaky thief bois.

Thanks for your input, though.

I wouldn't say that, some of the armor in the game gave you seriously damaging dex debuffs along with combat speed debuffs, sprinkled in with skill debuffs; all that together in my opinion is too much and doesn't make much sense.

Dex effects cutting damage, how would wearing heavy armor effect that? And how would wearing heavy armor reduce your skill at blocking a hit or landing one? Combat speed is really the only one that makes sense to me. Something that especially got me is ranged and sneak multiplers, I get the part about sneak but the debuffs for sneak are just outrageous, like at masterwork samurai has a 0.5 modifer for sneak, compounding with legplates for even less, and if you're not wearing masterwork the modifiers are stupid low and make sneaking completely impossible.

All this does is make every other armor class in the game 100% obsolete and encourages the player to dress every single member of their squad exactly the same. That's fun, eh?

Heavy Frontliner: Heavy-duty platemail.
Archers: Heavy-duty platemail.
Sneaky Thief Assassins: Heavy-duty platemail.
Farmhands: Heavy-duty platemail.

Meh.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I've been trying to do this myself for several weeks now.

you do what ever you want in your game but usually i put one or 2 guys as tank in heavy armor my warrior in meduim armor and my assasins ( dueler ) in light or range too. it just means you can't have every body in heavy armor and be impossible to kill without a penality but hey go ahead if you like it like that
