Tristeel armor

Description
Adds costly Tristeel Armor to the game.

- Tristeel Armor parts that have 10x the HP of regular armor and 2x penetration resistance but require 75% of its cost in Tristeel plates to build.

May be a wise idea to layer them with regular armor to prevent early bankrupcy.

Feel free to reupload if game version changes and I'm not around to fix them.

Notes:
I don't like how the graphics turned out and I might alter them at some point in the future.

For balancing issues:
Check out my other mod, Stronger Vanilla Armor 2xHP:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2886859306
This gives AI more survivability in combat, as it affects all vanilla armor in the game.

Maybe you want Diamond Armor mod as well?

Great things have small beginnings ;)

I made a quick mod to make this stuff 4x more expensive, and then I saw Enderluck had already done a rebalance mod. Oh well. Mine exists now too, I guess, it was a good practice piece, and if for some reason you want the ridiculous health totals of this armor to also have a ridiculous price tag, it's there.

Thanks for making this thing and keeping it updated, I like the additional use for tristeel, and making it silly expensive was excellent practice in how to structure a basic data-only mod without being too much to get started with!

Updated to 0.30.0
Now has it's foldable icon in editor, looks kinda neat.

Wait till you see Diamond armor, it has larger penetration resistance :D

I don't recommend this mod is too OP, using this mod your ship is indestructible. Tristeel armor is cheap, have same mass like standard armor, and is almost indestructible

Mr. software developer, your answer is effective, this mod has nothing to do with that inconvenience. The mod that generates the error is: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2911126638

This mod does not use processors in construction. You will need to search for text "processor_bt" inside your mod folder and see which one causes it :)

ahora mismo estoy teniendo este error: https://www.reddit.com/r/Cosmoteer/comments/1hvojjd/error_processor_bt_the_given_key_processor_bt_was/ no se si es posible que sea por este mod, Podrias revisarlo. por favor....

I have precisely zero coding/programming/modding knowledge so unfortunately this advice is lost on me as I do not understand it whatsoever, but thank you for your response!

You can very easily make a dependent mod that uses pathing operations to replace build costs.
You mod would have 10 ops to replace cost (one per piece) with a higher cost.
Its a single node in /Part/Resources that needs to be altered :)

I have my own mod for Large Crew Quarters to add +1 toon per bed and it looks something like this:

Actions
[
{
Action = Replace
Replace = "<../../../workshop/content/799600/2883177284/ships/crew_3x1/crew_3x1.rules>/Part/Components/CrewSource/Crew"
IgnoreIfNotExisting = false
With = 6
}
]


I'm in the middle of something else right now, but feel free to make such a mod and publish it for people and your friends to have easy access to for multiplayer purposes :)
Also if you do, let me know I'll link it here as derivate for other people who would love it.
