Bandolier Over Anything

Aight I did a quick test and it does works indeed. Thank you for helping with this @Nishe and I appreciate offer, if I'll get back to modding I will keep that in mind!

If you do what I suggested that fixes it. The "EyeCover" layer is actually not used by any helmets in the game (they do cover the "Eyes" body part, but that's a separate thing to using the "EyeCover" layer). That layer is only used for the blindfold from Ideology.

It does seem to conflict with the blindfold, which is weird because they cover different BodyPartGroups, but that's the only thing it conflicts with, and textures work perfectly. You can wear it with all helmets, I've already tested it in game.

Btw if you want any help/advice on writing the patches/xpath and stuff I'm happy to help, I have a decent amount of experience with it.

On another note, I didn't even expected this mod to go this far lol, it caught attention enough to even get a rating, which is surprising since there's someone who made new one that works similar.

Hey, thank you for some insight on that, it does makes sense at least from what I remember in error code but yes, I still have no idea either on how to fix it and using existing layer will collide with helmets that cover whole face too (maybe even all of them, didn't looked into it) so it won't change any behavior.
When it comes to my way of patching things, I spent A LOT of time figuring out how <xpath> thing works and I'm really struggling till now lol, it seems I figured out it worked that way easier for me, I'm not really experienced in these stuff much.

Hey @Shadowling09, after a couple hours of stuffing around I figured out what's causing the gunlink texture problem. Rimworld seems to be hardcoded to set certain layers as head apparel and others as body apparel.

It only assumes the vanilla head layers to be head apparel, and any newly added layers are assumed to be body apparel, which means it then expects textures for all the different body types, which it doesn't have because headwear doesn't have different textures for different bodies.

There doesn't seem to be an obvious way to specify in XML that a new layer is a head layer.

One workaround is to use the vanilla "EyeCover" layer instead of creating a custom one. That will put it on a separate layer to helmets. Achieves the desired effect and textures will still work.

Also, you don't need to use `PatchOperationReplace` on the whole apparel node. You can just use `PatchOperationAdd` to add that one field as a child node of the apparel node.

Glad there's still some use to mine then lol

So the Apparels mod puts the Heavy Bandolier on the Cape layers, together with the Duster. Guess I'm using this mod instead XD

Okay, thank you for the response.

As far as I can see it's the same thing, it wasn't there when I made mine so didn't checked it.

Hello, does your mod do the same thing or different from "Layers: Capes over Armor"?
