Hi, Iv been watching threads to do with the recent 1.0 progress, and I couldnt help but think that the issues to do with armor (Randomness of loosing a pawn despite having good armor((A heart randomly being destroyed to a lancer etc))) Could be solved by adding armor zones e.i say a chest plate being thicker around the heart lunges etc, or power armor protecting arteries or just bone in general decreasing chance of loosing a limb, cus if a artery gets hit im pretty sure chance of survival is damn low.

What do others think, but of course if its not possible with the game engine then :(.

I think it is technically possible. It would just be a bit strange since the heart isn't actually more protected than the rest of the torso in most types of armour.

Both bulletproof vests and medieval cuirasses are roughly equally protective over the heart and the bowel.

Also, Tynan confirmed armour is being redone to 1.0.
Which i'm interested in seeing when 1 comes around.

Armor was developed that was because is wasn't necessary, but here? Well its up for the devs to decide
