Armor System

Description

STATUS: STABLE!
Adds a unique Armor System to ArmA 3

Why?
We were quite inspired by the Health/Armor system present in 'Half Life: Our Benefactors' made by Webknight. We teamed up with Webknight to make something like it but in a way that would make it be useful and fun outside of just the Half-Life mod for those seeking a vanilla PLUS medical system.

Before we continue... Please be advised to NOT load this mod together with 'Half Life: Our Benefactors', just use their system in that case. [ATM, will change in the future!]

@Kuro it can all be configured! go and check out the CBA addon Options.

just make a mod that overwrites the weight
HICON 19 Jul @ 8:00am 
Am I allowed to take this and modify the Plate weight and Armor values as long as I credit?
Kuro 11 Jul @ 10:59am 
@Phenosi ah i see, also, does the system give the armor bar to all ai units including enemy or does it only give it to the player or can ai having the armor be configured to be off?
BeezyL5565  [author] 30 Jun @ 9:23pm 
we dont change any armor values. this is simply a magical number that prevents unit from taking damage
Long shot, but does anyone use this RHS, and/or does anyone know if this fixes the unpennable RHS armor?
Phenosi  [author] 27 Jun @ 8:23am 
@Kuro I have done a few attempts at getting it to work with that gamemode and heard no bug reports after that, so I assume it works fine.
Kuro 25 Jun @ 3:03pm 
Has anyone tested whether there complications with this mod and using Antistasi as with the other mod that does similar too this known as advanced armor plate system it tends to have issues involving Antsistasi
Phenosi  [author] 23 Jun @ 5:16am 
Yeah, it's an extremely demanding task to be asked by everyone to make it work with EVERY other mod, those mods can also add compatible for this. :))

This is a great mod but it doesn't work too well with Lifeline Revive AI. Seems to be overriding the down state and just instantly kills the unit when they reach 0 HP when going down.
