📋 About This Mod

Expands the selection of spacesuit, helmet and pack mods on workbench.

Introduction

Despite being gated behind skill points and research projects, armor modifications available on workbenches felt lackluster to me - some slots just had one option and nothing more. I've added several new mods to all slots, geared towards different playstyles.

All new mods require completing research projects and various resources, roughly following vanilla balancing.

Mod only adds new options, doesn't change any vanilla content - should be compatible with everything, including mod-added spacesuits (assuming they follow vanilla mod slot distribution).

List of added mods

Spacesuits

Slot 1: Improved Ballistic Shielding - greatly increases ballistic resistance.

Slot 1: EM+Energy Shielding - increases both energy and EM resistances.

Slot 2: Thermal/Corrosive/Radiation/Airborne Shielding - increases resistance to corresponding environmental damage.

Slot 3: Chem Distribution System - increases all Chems duration.

Slot 3: Composite Materials - reduces weight.

Slot 3: Hazard Protection - increases resistance to all types of environmental damage.

Slot 4: Fortified Servos - increases jump height.
