📋 About This Mod
Extended Repair Kits ==================== The weapon repair kits have been renamed to simply repair kits. Whenever you use them, you get the option to repair your armor, helmet or weapon through a pop-up menu. The menu is context-sensitive, only allowing you the option for specific repairs if you have an item equipped in that slot, and it isn\'t 100% repaired yet. Additionally, the repair value now gradually increases with your repair skill, as opposed to the default static values. Originally, you could repair to 10-15-20-25-30% with 0,25,50,75,100 repair skills, now it ranges from 10 -> 30, so a repair skill of 99 will yield around 29,9 repair value.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved (460 endorsements) and well-downloaded (6,639 downloads) for a niche fix
- Solves a real annoyance—no more juggling multiple repair kits for different gear types
- Lightweight and focused; does exactly what it says without bloat
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2011—may be incompatible with current game versions or DLC
- Only affects armors and helmets; shields or other equipment may still require separate kits
For players who hate carrying multiple repair kits and want a simple QoL fix for armor maintenance. Skip if you're on a newer game version or expect support for all equipment types—this is a dated, niche tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
