Buffs 'n Nerfs for the Generic Ammo Experience

@AKEKHQ thank you for your feedback! you wouldn't believe how little of it I get
I won't be able to give long explanations due to the workshop comment limit but to put it briefly:
- the armor vest textures are only swapped if you have ve textures, it seemed more fitting to me but I can also revert that. it's really whatever
- composite armor is straight up busted. it competes with recon armor in terms of protection and can stop battle rifle rounds. with a hard armor system where shots either penetrate or they don't, the big armor buff more than makes up for its lesser hp. if you have access to traders, composite stuff is also cheaper to make despite being more advanced. I chose to remove them and buffed the armor values of flak jackets and armor vests a bit instead
- the leather thing, I'll take a look at.

still, thank you for your feedback! feel free to join the discord if you'd like to talk about the changes in detail

i wanna give some feedback from playing with the mod soo far.
Looks like you forgot to buff plainlether when buffing various textiles (i consider cow lether to be at least as strong as human lether), I dont know why you swapped textures for CE armor soft and flak vests but it sent me for a loop i guess its just preference.
I understand why you removed composite vest and heavy composite gear, keeping more vanilla gear progression, but it would be nice to have them back (maybe locked behind their own tech)

Other than those nit picks i really like the changes. I really like ammo crafting changes, warcasket durability should be the deafult, and having shield belts that accualy do somthing fells great

Do you think you'd ever consider making a patch for Vanilla Metals Expanded to make ammo cost lead to make instead of steel?

@lol no they take four mags. something might be wrong with your mod setup

@turkler, the thing is pawns take all the ammo they can find, not just the 2 mags or any other configurable amount

@lol that's already a thing in base combat extended

Hey Turkler, thank you for making these mods! Have you given a thought of implementing a loadout improvement of some kind? Like this fix (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1776175645) does: pawns implicitly carry 2 ammo mags depending on the weapon equipped.

Rationale: to ease up the loadout management in CE (mass/bulk/caliber/ammo type/...) compared to the vanilla game.(just equip one weapon).

Cheers!

thanks
