Realistic Ballistics

Description
Realistic Ballistics Mod
Gear up for PvP combat. Experience realistic bullet defense with some enhanced protection in Project Zomboid.

Realistic Ballistics adds more depth to your survival experience by providing realistic bullet defense to helmets, vests, and military legwear. With this mod, military gear becomes essential for enduring the apocalypse and increasing your chances of survival during firefights.

Features:
Enhanced Bullet Defense:

Military helmets now offer 100% bullet defense for maximum head protection.
Bulletproof vests provide increased torso protection, making them essential for PvP situations.
Leg Protection: Military pants and tactical gear now include some bullet defense, addressing a critical vulnerability in PZ's bullet defense gearing situation. There are minimal layers you can add to the legs to cover thigh/calves, this mod will help that.
Boot Protection: Traditionally, Military boots are not steel-toe (more acrylic-toe) however, in PZ your feet are usually the first things to get hit by a bullet (not realistic) and once that happens, you're incapacitated and will likely die. This mod gives you a fighting chance.
Compatibility:

Compatible with vanilla Project Zomboid, Brita, USMC, and Operator's M4 mods.
Works seamlessly in both single-player and multiplayer settings.
Distribution Tweaks:

Bulletproof vests and military gear can now be found in Gun Stores, Army Hangars, and Surplus Outfits.
FAQ:
Q: Does this mod affect bite or scratch defense?
A: No, this mod focuses on bullet defense to give your gear the ability to withstand gunfire in combat situations.

Q: Is this mod compatible with other armor mods?
A: Yes, Realistic Ballistics works with most other armor mods, expanding bullet defense without conflict.

@psychonurse

added an additional check that should make sure only valid items/parameters are passed to content tweaker. Looks like an concatenation error with null, not sure why. Lemme know if it doesn't work, or something else pops up.

Side note: If you see an error message "Missing item or defense for (gear)" Please let me know and I can troubleshoot further.

@Mighty Juaktus
I'm receiving the same error myself, doesn't seem to be causing any real issues. Just wanted to put it out there that there is at least one other instance of this exact error.
