Useful Body Armor

Description
SN40 body armor stops nothing in vanilla game because its armor volumes are disabled. This mod fixed that, now it can stop SMG rounds.

Make sure set\interaction_entity\sandbag.inc is not overwritten by other mods, otherwise the armor wont stop bullets.

Upgrade:
Script logic improved, now you can see the real penetration possibility when aiming at it.

This armor can only protect the chest, if you want total protection, see my power armor mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3510016454

Yeah 9 parabellum is hopelessly weak, you have to wonder how someone can see the 85 grain bullet and say, yeah that'll wreck body armor

@Punished Miller it was not hopeless agains PPSH, 100% nonpen above 50m. Worked fine against smgs and shrapnel (as designed), esp in urban combat, no so fine from '44 where Storm Engineer-Sapper Brigades faced carbine round armed infantry in bigger numbers.
@dr sex

I have no clue what a machine pistol is... probably one of those C96 with full auto is but this plate armor was designed for close combat its a steel bub able to stop all sort of small arms fire, even rifle rounds from a certain distance distance, but it was mostly used in close combat to provide defense against smg's, and shrapnel, during assaults.

imo should only stop machine pistols and regular pistols from long range

I hope this does get re-added into vanilla and be able to stop rifle & smg bullets. It would be nice to actually worry about infantry for once

In reality it's called SN-42, I have no idea how the developers haven't fixed the typo yet. The SN-40 was practically never fielded.
The SN-42 was only able of stopping lead core 9mm rounds. By 1944, Germany had switched to iron core bullets, that could penetrate the 2mm breastplate from as far as 150 meters.
Against the Ppsh it was hopeless, it went right through.

I remember this crap blocking STG 44s and Kar98s, it made the Soviets so tanky. Awful.

@Iron Otto
You're right, it's not completely useless in vanilla game. It can absorb about 25 damage, and spawn a spark effect when its wearer hit. You can find those defines in human.inc and human.ext. These are all script tricks, no real armor mechanism involved. That's why even if you set its armor thickness to 100, it still cant block SMGs.

Stops nothing? I haven't played in a while, but I distinctly remember it making troops more tanky. If the devs disabled it in vanilla - good riddance
