Because people don't like the changes i split the mod > Can now find the new changes in a seperate mod here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2616331150

New mod is likely incompatible with this one.

Atlas has graciously updated the mod. I am unsure of the changes but I know he has been hard at work.

Hey all Atlas here ! Under heavy consideration and feedback from everyone i've decided to roll back the changes. I'd like to update the mod and rebalance everything but with feedback from you guys it's looking like some of the edits were out of place and messed with some saves. Going forward i'd like to discuss what should be changed and balanced, What can be changed, removed and replaced ahead of time.

As a heads up. I do intend to make NPC arms Unique. They're meant to be trophy systems and as such should play as trophy systems. This either means that NPC uniques will be more powerful and the crafted ones will just be flat improvements. Or they won't be craftable at all.

Limb stats - Every limb WILL be unique and have a purpose. This does mean that many limbs will have negatives towards certain skills.
i.e. Leviathan Limbs. They're meant to be limbs you use to quite literally fist fight leviathans with. As such they're all about power, not dex, not thieving, just straight up power. The kind that makes stuff explode.

As for other limbs i do want to tone them down and shape them up. If you want your guy to be a brawler, you'll go for strength limbs, if you want to be sneaky beaky, you'll go dex/thief limbs.

I'll also be looking into reacquiring permissions for new assets and additions FIRST and foremost. That way people have more to play with and will see more unique models. For the things that are simply duplicates (MK1/2/3 versions) i'll look into getting those proper textures.

This does however mean the update will be bigger and slower to come out. As such i'll roll out soft stat updates first and slowly rework THIS update. Then i'll add more limbs as time allows.

This mod update was completely crafted by Atlas. Without Atlas, this mod would not have been updated, be sure to checkout his Kenshi: Genesis mod here:

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2228579107

Properly pathed the mesh file path for the following arms. (These are apparently Vanilla issues and should be fixed in an upcoming kenshi patch, but they're easier to fix now)
-Steady Arm (right) - Fixes female arm issues
-Steady Arm (left) - Fixes female arm issues
Both arms now being properly pathed should allow them to connect correctly with the female body.

-Double Checked squad settings for cat-lon, his generals and other unique NPC's with new limbs. The arms should always properly spawn assuming that their squad, limb health, or character data is NOT messed with. If a mod edits the character in anyway you may need a patch mod or to place my overhaul after the mod in your load order.

-Under heavy thought, all tech to create unique NPC arms was removed. This makes them powerful items worth having but also makes them completely unique and trophy items as well as heavy boons for the player which should increase the overall worth of the item.

-Double checked Research tree's and tech. They should properly apply assuming a mod like genesis or another doesn't edit the vanilla research itself or change tech tree levels. If they do a patch mod may be needed.

-Double checked Icon setups. Icons should properly apply unless something overwrites the changes made in the overhaul. (Like overwriting my manual icons)

Changes to arm stats (applies for both arms). These changes are intended to bring a little more balance to the arms so that they can find there place in the world of kenshi and serve their INTENDED purpose as arms. Not all limbs are strong, not all are fast. Each limb now has proper debuffs as recommended by a lot of users. Almost all descriptions have been updated and partially rewritten to further explain (to a small extent) a "lore" reason as to why certain things have differing stats.
Certain Features have also been PURPOSEFULLY overlooked (like arm/leg weights) This should mod focuses mostly on providing more choices to work with but not more things to "think" about.
