VFE Mechanoids: Hyperweave Underarmor
What does this mod do?
Mechanite underarmor is very effective for its cost, epecially in early/mid game. Problem is, they usually become obsolete the moment you harvest your first batch of devilstrand.
This lightweight patch aim to make the mechanite underarmor much more late game focused, by making it a lot more expensive, but also a lot better at protecting your pawns.
The mechanite armor torso now cost 75 hyperweave, 50 plasteel, and 2 advanced component, from the original 70 cloth, 50 steel and 1 advanced component.
The mechanite armor pants now cost 70 hyperweave, 50 plasteel, and 1 advanced component, from the original 50 cloth, 40 steel and 1 advanced component.
The new defensive value of Mechanite armor (both torso and pants) are now the following:
0.25 Flammability from base 0.7
0.6 Sharp armor from base 0.2
0.18 Blunt armor from base 0.07
0.75 Heat armor from base 0.4

Q: B-But... Muh balance??
A: Feel free to edit the value with notepad to your taste.

A: You should, don't remove it mid playthrough though!
Q: I have a bug/suggestion!
A: Leave it in the comments below!
