Dissectors are traps that do a lot of damage, so don’t step on them unless you have some decent armour for each body part. Also if you’re running frail/fragile, steer clear.
Light survivors’ suit used to do the job, but I’m not how the Armour has been re-balanced.
Good for training tailoring though, unless you’ve got a high dodge and light step.
As to torso encumberance I’m not sure SWAT armor layers well, so there might be bonus encumberance/layering penalty from that. Not really experimented with the new encumberance system a lot yet either.
I don’t think it’s too bad. You get a big happiness bonus instead of getting depressed when swimming or out in the rain. Moreover, that trail helps you keep track of places you already went to, really helpful when raiding labs and other large, dark structures. Not a trait I’d go out of my way to have, but definitely not something I’d mind having either.
What food do you guys pack (if any) on your character? I’m attempting to find the most filling, yet least encumbering way. Right now, I just filled my plastic canteen, 2.5 canteen, and hydration pack with mineral water for drink. For food, I take 2-3 MREs and lots of honey combs, which take up little space and are filling. But I may stray away from mainly honeycombs, since each one is 1 volume.
I tend to go with jerky, aspic, etc. If you’re innawoods, you could just kill things and cook it as needed, but 10 volume of jerky is a hefty 360 nutrition.
Just started playing again after a long break, always played vanilla so today I decided to try some mods. Arcana mod and Tank are awesome, but I think the tank mod quadruples the chances for military vehicles, or is it just my luck? Everywhere I go there are swat, security, humvees and armored cars.
When making a weapon into a turret, what else do you have to do to be able to mount it on the roof? the “on_roof” location is good to go. Maybe the flags? They are: [“TURRET”, “CARGO”, “MANUAL”]
Y’know, never seen a swat van until the latest experimental. Seen pretty much everything else though. We might need to tweak the spawn settings for SWAT and armoured cars up a notch.
Also has anyone found SWAT armour in the police armory yet?
