Realistic Weight Limit Rebalance (PTF)

This is a realistic approach for a hardcore gameplay, do not expect to run with a whole plate armor set until you invest to all weight perks and get you strength high.

An average breast plate piece weights 10lbls(Vanilla), and with this mod your lvl 5 strength carry limit is 45 lbls without perks.

Keep in mind that you can always fight encumbered if you need the extra protection and you expect a difficult encounter.

Tested and working with KCD version 1. 2

My take on the subject

Weight in KCD is in lbs(pounds) so I was always bothered by the fact that you character could carry over 300 lbls of stuff sprinting around and fighting.

For reference, 1 pound(lb) is 0. 4 kg, and an average camping backpack is at most like 20kg ( I used to hike a lot :) ).

So after some research I think that a well trained knight could carry at most 60kg of gear (armor and inventory)-that is 130lbls in game.

About the plate armor weight values they vary from era to era, so when deciding what is historically accurate I took some artistic liberties - everything ofc based on official and solid articles and very reliable buy your own plate armor set today sites(lol really I am that guy).

My thoughts were that there should be a way to limit just putting on full plate armor straight from the start and snowball everything, and rather progress and invest to be a full kitted knight.

In KCD 2 it seems the armor weights are set only for for a single piece of armor when considering gauntlets, arm plates and leg plates so as far as Henry has two legs and arms the weight of the spoken pieces should be double that. Two gloves, double the weight.

Plate armor now is heavier now but weight perks are much more rewarding. You can always wear almost a full plate armor set around 15ish strength with all the weight perks unlocked.

For the horse part a horse can comfortably carry on average 20% of its body weight.

Lets assume that an average horse weights 1000 lbs(almost 500Kg) then it can lift 200lbs(100kg).

What changed:

Realistic Weight:

• []Base horse carry weight limit adjusted according to realistic values.

[]Adjusted saddle weight bonus up to 60 or so for the most expensive saddles.

[]Reduced Henry's base inventory weight limit down to 40 with the use of a new custom perk.

[]Hard working lad, pack mule,  strong bull perks give +10 bonus weight each

[]Bonus weight from each point of strength decreased from 8 to 1

[]Well built perk gives +1 extra weight point per strength

[]Adjusted all localization files so the descriptions match the changes

Realistic Armors:

[]All armor pieces and clothing weights readjusted
