Horizon and West Tek Tactical Optics Patch

This is a compatibility patch for Horizon and West Tek Tactical Optics. You will need my ARMORY ACTIVATOR FILE--> Download it HERE (If you don't have it already!)

Yes, I know. ANOTHER West Tek Tactical Optics patch. I made this because I wanted to make sure adding this mod was balanced with the rest of Horizon's gear. Horizon makes all gear equal so I don't want a mod being added that might be more useful than others of the same type.

The main purpose for this patch is to help balance ThaMan's Horizon Far West Minutemen Patch. I have already patched Cross Prewar Cybernetics and Crimson Accessories so I figured I might as well patch the other required mod for Far West Minutemen.

Changes/How to craft:

-I removed all the of the upgrades except for the night vision and thermal upgrades. Horizon eyewear adds its own upgrades so I want these to be different options than any of Horizons. The thermal detection in West Tek's upgrades highlights living and dead creatures and is activated always (or you can toggle it). The detection in Horizon's eyewear upgrades can detect friend or foe and dead creatures, but isn't always activated. I figure they are different enough to maybe warrant using either.

-Power armor no longer has access to West Tek's upgrades.

-West Tek gear will show up much less on npc's (starting at level 12) and will no longer give any free vision upgrades, you need to craft them yourself if you want to use them (once you find the blueprint). Vendors will not sell any vision upgrades.

-All vision upgrades require the science skill and have crafting requirements similar to other Horizon vision upgrades.

-West Tek gear can be crafted in the Tech Lab under West Tek Optics and is connected to my Armory Activator. (Get it here)

-The West Tek on/off switch can be found in the Equipment section of the Tech Lab. (once you find the blueprint)

-You can craft a "basic" version of all of the gear. This basic version has Horizon's upgrades instead of West Tek's. (They still keep the colour options). The basic versions can be crafted without the blueprint so you can start using them right away. You can also craft the helmets in their raised positions. (They will also receive vision upgrades)

If anything seems off let me know!!
