The cost of an upgrade is equal to the armor's class times 16000, times the sum of all its zone values:
"Top": 0.33
"Nape": 0.33
"Ears": 0.33
"Eyes": 1.5
"Jaws": 0.5
"Chest": 1.5
"Stomach": 1.3
"LeftArm": 0.5
"RightArm": 0.5
"LeftLeg": 0.5
"RightLeg": 0.5
So a piece of armor that covers the chest and stomach, being upgraded from level 4 to level 5, will cost:
16000 * 4 * (1.5 + 1.3)
= 179200
Note: If you upgrade an item that has attachments on it, those attachments are lost. This is the same as using an item with fancy mods on it for a hideout craft: Take your attachments off first. Caveat emptor is the order of the day.
The background colours of armor items have also been modified to reflect their class. The closer you get to the purple end of the spectrum, the higher the armor's class.
- At the moment this is clunkier than I wanted it to be, and the upgrades are done via the regular purchase UI. Hopefully this will change in the future.
- There may still be bugs around, but this mod is compatible with my Armor Plates mod.
- This currently fully repairs any armor you upgrade. I hope to remove this, eventually, so upgraded armors will retain their degraded durability.
- Upgraded armors are *not* useable for quests that require a certain type of armor.
