Shields of Kenshi

Description
This was part of a larger mod I was working on, but then somehow I managed to make the mod unable to be uploaded to the Workshop. In an effort to salvage some of that mod, here is a lighter version that just adds part of what I had already made.

First off, credit where credit is due. A big thank you to Mod Authos Cmon' Garfie Baby!, creator of the mod "Iron Shields +" for allowing me to incorporate the models, textures, and all around groundwork for many of the shields. Also a big thank you to Mod Author Acord, creator of the mod "Faction Shields" for allowing me to incorporate that mod into my own.

With Shields of Kenshi, Many of the various factions will now be carrying a variety of shields. Something that I always thought that was smissing in the world of Kenshi were shields. I mean, there are giant swords, turrets with pneumatic air crossbow gun things, and skeletons, but shields are where we draw the line? No more. Now with this mod, shields are both on NPCs as well as craftable for the player and his squadmates.

I have done some testing and hopefully that dealt with all of the bugs, though there is one persistent issue I can't seem to fix, that being the icons of certain shields. If anyone can give me a reason to why this might be, maybe I'll be able to fix the damn icons in game, but until then, red X's it is. If anyone else notices any issues with this mod, please feel free to let me know, and I will try my best to get to it in a timely manner!

Also, I have a Kofi account

So if you like what I'm doing here and decide you want to send a little black gold my way, I will make sure to tell the Inquisitor that you ran the other way,

@AtomicLiquorice that is... such a simple fix haha! I'll have to redownload my files to mess with them a bit, though I'm not sure when I might be able to do that. I haven't played kenshi in a good long while, but you're welcome to make a patch for it in the meantime for the community to use.

@AtomicLiquorice I think you should make a patch mod yourself, this mod is too old so the author may not be around to patch it up, i do hope im wrong, cause i dont wanna add too much sub mod to my list :sad_seagull:

@paperkut808 I'm really late to the party, but I found the fix for the issue with the icons. However the engine is looking at it, it doesn't like that the icons folder isn't in the main mod folder. I moved it out of the "Iron Shields" and "Plank Shields" folders and into the "Shields of Kenshi" folder and then adjusted the file path for the icons through FCS and it worked.

@Ciaphas Cain, I went and looked into the shields data, all of the belt slotted shields should be equipable by all races, but the belts that are in the shirt slot, are most likely restricted to races that can wear shirts. Hivers as far as I know can't do, so you'll need to either buy one at a vendor, or build one from the shield assembly bench

@Ciaphas Cain, the hivers were all restricted races by the original mod authors. I didn't really mess with any of their settings, but I imagine it would be an easy fix to open that up to all races, just need to go tweak a few things. Anything for the vaunted hero of the Imperium!

Real nice mod, good work! But i was wondering if there were any hive-compatible shields, as the ones i tried did not work
