I’m working on a mod, playing with battery powered tools with “artifact_data” embedded in the code (calling special effects…) and I think have found a strange issue… (Tested on last experimental).
For example, this is the code of a night visor that enhance PER…

Well, I have found that this armor-tool works, but only if it is layered in the first OR in the last position in the body clothes list (using “+” and “s” function, in game).
If it is between other clothes, “effects_worn”: [“AEP_PER_UP”] vanish! And this effect is also interactive (I can nullify/restart my ACTIVE battery-artifact, relayering it…).
Is this intended or I’m milking in a bad way in-game functions?
).
