A Lightweight mod that enhances the usability of the vanilla powered armour sets, which feel rather underwhelming at times. Often it feels like a flak vest and some combination of either flak jackets or high tier dusters are better particularly when considering things like resources used and pawn mobility, which is not how line leading power armour should feel!
What does the mod change?
[list]
[*] [b]Recon armour[/b], [b]Marine amour[/b] and [b]Cataphract armour[/b] now all have slightly enhanced protection vs their vanilla counter parts.[i] Between 3 - 10% in all three categories [/i]
[*] [b]Recon armour[/b] gives a slight movement bonus, [i]0.1 c/s[/i]
[*] [b]Cataphract[/b] and [b]Marine armour[/b] are slightly less punishing with movement reductions: [i]-0.5 c/s and 0.25c/s respectively[/i]. As of 1.6 it seems vanilla has adopted these movement speed changes - but for older versions these values will apply.
[*] All [b]power armours[/b] now protect [b]hands and feet[/b], no more losing fingers!
[*] All derivative armours (Locust for example) have been updated with these changes too, they are still however not as good as their equivalents.
[*] [b]Helmets[/b] have not been changed
