[1.2] Apparello v2.2.2 Dawn of newer deluxier edition [02/03/2021]

Is that possible to wear shields with armors (especially heavy one like hive)? What would it take to change that? Just simple XML edit or some higher modding?

[Shinzy]

Then can gadgets be craftable?

*nods* everything except the super glue

That's why I made the Shielded plate armor
But yes you can just edit the xml for them
go to Mods/Core/ThingDefs/Apparel_Shield.xml
then find the bit

Code Select Expand

<bodyPartGroups>
<li>Torso</li>
</bodyPartGroups>
<layers>
<li>Middle</li>
</layers>

and change the values to

Code Select Expand

<bodyPartGroups>
<li>Arms</li>
</bodyPartGroups>
<layers>
<li>OnSkin</li>
</layers>

that way it shouldn't clash with anything at all
Though I don't recommend trying to wear it with the Other shield from my mod!
I haven't tested if that would cause some kind of Shieldception that results in nuclear reaction of some sorts and your world mite turn into fabulous splash of colour

or then it just mite stack like supposed to, and have double the shield
..or maaaaybe they'll melt together?

This is probably a stoopit question that has been answered...but...how do you craft gadgets?
There are only the 3 workstations correct? If so I'm not seeing how to craft some of the needed items for armor etc.
Are some of the needed components only obtained by trade/capture from raiders?
Awesome mod!
Thanks!

at the moment the best way to get them are from traders! I'm making them craftable for the next update, whenever that will be!

But you can get one pile of gadgets as a side product by doing either one of the mechanoid schematics if you really really need to get few

Drop the clothing nukes!

[Dragoon]

were the discharger and stabilizer gloves made for left hand people or are they back words? 
(If your right handed then you left hand would be on the grip of the gun not the right.)

Oh they're just how Bolo woulda done em, entirely backwards, upside down, inside out!


Edit:
Charge glove makes your trigger finger faster
and stabby glove more stable
There's usually some logic there! Most of the time with high amounts of ill on the nose!

Hey, is there something that has to be done to make custom shields work? Both the shield coat from this and the shields from the cyber storm always stay at 0/max no matter what while vanilla personal shields work just fine.

-snip-

Are you using prepare carefully? (like having them drop down with it?) If so they it won't charge unless you take it off and put it back on.

Ayoo!
I can't get them to act like that myself
so Dragoonie there might be correct
or maybe there's some sort of mod clashing going on

[MsMeiriona]

I suspect that's it, I haven't tried yet, and feel foolish I didn't think of it. I -think- I had tried unequipping and re-equipping, but it's possible I'm an idiot and didn't

[Killaim]

not sure if its your mod.

but enemies never drop power armor
instead they have Lower power armor (inactive), upper power armor (inactive)

any clues?

They become really really really rare as a side effect of much wider range of choices
You can ofcourse craft them but atm with no reliable source of Hex-cells ( ) yoooouuu caaaaan't

I've been meaning to make them craftable for the longest while now but most of my freetime has gone towards other things I've had to put modding to a bit of a hold

[Killaim]

what do to with the lower power armor (inactive) and upper power armor (inactive) ?

[Shinzy]

you wear them! (duh!)
I just wanted to have the raiders to wear some more scrapped bits of armor instead of end of the line high tech military grade polished space armor from space

and I thought about them being side-product of disassembling proper power armor / parts required for building one but that'll be thing for the fuuuuutuuuure!
