📋 About This Mod
A fancy high tech damage resistance suit. It can offer up to 90% damage reduction when wearing both the suit and the gloves, however, it can only offer this damage reduction to a single damage type at a time! So if you're about to be bit, you're gonna need to swap to physical damage resistance or you'll take that full damage. It can make heat or acid damage a joke, but if you're hit by something you weren't prepared for it's going to hurt. The suit provides automatic switching when taking damage, but it only switches after you've taken the hit. So it'll be convenient for damage over time like radiation, fire/heat, poison, etc, but it won't be very helpful against large once-off damage ticks, you need to be proactive with those.
But by far the best part of it is the color changing. The icon changes, the suit changes, it's beautiful. The suit used to lerp between colors but right now it just instantly switches color and I'm not entirely sure why but I also haven't had the chance to fully look into it yet so that'll be fixed in an update I'm sure. But it's still fancy no matter what.
Also has a large config, letting you disable the automatic adaptation if you want, and letting you customize each of the damage types. So you can remove cold if you want, or you can remove physical and just make it only work with more elemental damage types. Or you can ignore the whole gimmick of the mod and just shove every damage type into a single defense type, so you always get 90% damage reduction. Also you can change the colors of things however you want, so you can make it hot pink. Or dull pink. Or pastel pink. Or really any kind of pink. You could maybe do other non-pink colors too but idk I haven't tested that. I'd recommend pink though. One thing to note is that the rgb color values are normalized, so they use a 0-1 scale. So RGB values of 1,1,1 would be white, and 1,0,0 would be a bright red. Its easy to convert, or you can simply use this site to pick your colors
