Power Armor Collections 76 style

What is this modThis mod tries to replicate the same collection system for Power Armor that exists in Fallout 76. You can store the frame along with the core and equipped armor pieces in a lightweight inventory item. This makes transporting multiple suits from one location to another easy. Or having different suits for different needs.

You cannot collect owned frames (ones that give you the STEAL option).

This is similar to other mods that try to do the same thing. When you are staring at a Power Armor frame there is a new interaction option "COLLECT" to pick it up.

Features

• []Allows you to store an arbitrary and virtually unlimited number of Power Armor Chassis with custom unique names.

  []As in Fallout 76 each Power Armor Chassis that is added to your inventory weighs 10 weight each.

  []You can rename your Power Armor Chassis at an Armor Workbench and this persists through use and stowage.

  []Will automatically recall the chassis after 60 seconds if you do not enter it or start crafting at the power armor station.

  []Will automatically recall the chassis if you go too far away from it (default 8192 units - 2 CELLs, almost out of visual range)

  []You can register one frame for either a flare triggered or radio call remote drop. Useful if you wear Power Armor frequently but want to easily carry one for your companion(s).

  []HEDR version 0. 95 to make it VR friendly (needs testing)

  []ESL flagged for non VR to be load order friendly. (ensured forms are within proper range)

  How to use the mod

  When near a Power Armor use the interaction key to COLLECT the suit. This places a Power Armor Chassis item in your inventory.

  To call out the stored frame simply open your inventory to the armor tab and EQUIP the chassis item. It will be removed from your inventory and upon closing the Pipboy it will appear in front of you. If you pickup multiple frames without renaming this they will stack using the default name. So selecting a specific one is not possible without renaming them. If you have RenameEverything then they will automatically use unique names to prevent stacking.

  To make it easier to rename them you have 3 basic options.

  • []Install RenameEverything so they automatically use a numbered name when picking them up.

    []Place them in a container temporarily. Take one to the armor workbench and rename it. Then repeat with another.

  • Place them in the world either as a temporary deployment, or as an untimed drop. Then collect them one at a time and rename them.
