Fear's Armor Mod (and more!)

Description
Mod : Fear's Armor Mod (and more!)
Creator : FEAR
(Sometimes, in order for the mod to update in the game, you'll have to re-subscribe, and restart the game somehow. Idk that just works for me sometimes.)


UPDATED 12/10/24
- Added more flat type ERAs (1x2, 2x2, 2x3)
(-suggested by wich cat)

(also yes, i'll be making more tanks)



Description:
Just a simple mod suitable for armored vehicles like tanks/etc. It contains 1x1 ERA pieces and a 1x2 one, as well as a 1x2 armored window. It's a WIP, and I just tried to make a mod to pass some time. It also contains more items now, and I will keep adding more random useful/non-useful stuffs :)

Also, the armor pieces acts like a weight block, so it can resist shells like AP the same way as a weight block, but the damage area of impact is reduced (the post penetration is the same as before), making HE impact damage to also be reduced, therefore making it effective against HE.

Armor Summary/Features/Notes
  • NEVER put the armor pieces on a subgrid, it won't perform well. Always put it on the same grid you want to protect.
  • Neighboring/Surrounding subgrids will take damage from HE, because for some reason the pieces can only protect the grid it is on, but at least the total damage will be reduced compared to using default blocks.
  • It's effective against HE, but acts the same as weight block when it comes to other rounds.
  • Effectiveness against AP, and other shells is the same as weight block.
  • Does not reduce the explosion damage to players.
  • It's a WIP and I'll try to add more, I just made this, because I was trying out how to make a mod (my first time, even with blender...lol)


  • Extra note: "you can search for the mod components just by typing "fear" (i added that tag to make things easier), or you can use the sort function. Also, all the mod components are paintable."


More Notes:
  • 1x1 Gimbal Camera (I called it Advanced Tank Camera) takes up a 1x4 voxel space, it's ideally placed on top of turrets so that shouldn't be much of an issue. It's needed to be made that way for the logic nodes to work properly.
  • There is also a "HD" version of the 1x1 monitor in there, equivalent to 3x3 monitor, i just tested it so its still wip. But it already works, just takes 2 voxels (the other voxel is placed 2 blocks high and 2 blocks far from point 0)

if this gets converted to a component mod ill use it. great mod just sucks you cant upload creations with it or use it in servers

Hmmm idk tbh, i haven't looked at how to make or convert component mods yet, im sorry

Any plans for this to be a component mod?

hmmm that's odd, it should still work even up today. Try to wait a little for steam to refresh workshop files after subscribing, or try restarting stormworks.


Also, just to add (for everyone), i might not be able to update or add more components here soon, just very busy irl lol. Anyways, i still want to add more ERAs and stuffs for tanks, and maybe more that's based from real ones (these ones are my design), but i think someone will be able to make better ones someday soon for sure (I personally think that would be cool and nice).

how can i use this mod? i add this just by clicking subcribed and i dont see it anywhere
FEAR  [author] 11 Jan @ 5:52am 
Yeah sure thing, you're free to do so. Also, idk why the problem persists, so i tried making a new game with the mod (workshop uploaded one not local to see) just now, and it seems to be working fine for me. Maybe there's a problem in the workshop? I'm sorry, i really have no other idea why it wont show up to you
Like zoinks This isn't weed 10 Jan @ 4:28pm 
2 things, #1 could i use your mod for a creation i made? in short i'm asking for permission to post a creation that has your mod in it, I will give credit in the description. #2 I seem to have trouble getting the mod to work as it doesn't pop up when creating a new world. I tried re -downloading it, waiting a day, and restarting the game and it doesn't seem to work.

it would be amazing if you add a 1x4 wedge with era
FEAR  [author] 15 Dec, 2024 @ 10:14pm 
it does work the same as weight block against AP, except the armor itself wont take any damage
