📋 About This Mod
Gives all Automaton conscripts ChiCom style chest rigs, and then a Stalheim style Helmet to all troopers, soviet-style officer hats to all Commissars, And a mono-eye with a modern style helmet for the MG Raiders. You can choose which replacements you want enabled.
Aside from simply changing the vibe of the Automatons, the secondary goal of this mod is so in the heat of battle you can tell a standard Trooper from a Commissar before it shoots off a flare while keeping it somewhat immersive.
※Note that not all Commissars will have hats, and some Troopers can still fire flares so don't entire rely on their looks. This is on the game's fault nothing I can really do.
If for whatever reason I vanish and stop updating this mod, you are free to update it or even modify to make it better. I think doing so values the time, effort, and the expense of time put into this. Editing is okay too if you know how to do that.
Trooper helmet is an edit of a roblox UGC item by "Veryth".
