Nothing prevents you from creating a mod with the value you want.Well... except skill

Work fine in my OXCE !
Military NVG can easily weigh 1-2 lbs depending on design and configuration (older tend to be heavier, but even modern 'lightweight' ones can be close to a pound and that's just for optics covering one eye. On top of that I'm pretty sure that OXCE 'weight' isn't just mass (whether in lbs or kg) given that a Glock 18 weighs '3' yet IRL weighs about .94 kg (pistol weight with a loaded magazine)Yes, I considered that, but then the night-ops armour - which sports bulkier night-ops than the liquidator - does not add bulk beyond a leather coat, I believe. It does penalise reactions by -5, but that's it. The liquidator provides the same night vision benefits as the night-ops armour, but not a penalty to reactions. Instead, it adds additional penalties to tu and stamina, as well as weighing more than the armoured vest. And the optics on that liquidator helmet do not look particularly cumbersome. So for game-purposes, I altered the penalties to the liquidator harness as mentioned before.
Assuming one weight unit was ~300 grams approximately, a 'weight' 10 vest will weigh 3 kg, and a weight 8 vest would weigh 2.4 kg. 600 grams or so would be plausible for NVG especially circa late 90s or early 2000s.
You sounded kind fo sincere given your inflection. Sorry if I misunderstood youI already have. Don't tell anybody.
Not really up to me to say, and I am not the mod author. The nice thing about OXC is that you can change most of the stuff to your own liking, as the *.rul files are all plain text. Don't like how somehting is implemented? Just change it.
Not Protein, Protean.I was being facetious.
Those are not different types of armor, but the same kind of armor for different types of agents (or soldiers). Due to the way that OXC handles unit properties, some attributes are assigned to units themselves, while others are part of the armor definitions.Ah, that would explain it, then. Thank you. However, it still doesn't make sense to me that a suit of armour should be heavier and bulkier (but offering the same protection), just by adding night vision goggles. Wouldn't it make more sense for it just to have the combined drawbacks as the armoured vest and the NightOps armour? Ie., -5, -5 and -10 to TU, stamina and reactions respectively.
That is irrelevant in regards to your original question, but we will get to that in due time (provided nobody else wants to answer it). I asked you to double check the numbers you gave for both armors. What is the value for visibilityAtDark for STR_ARMORED_VEST_UC?Ah, yes - that particular armour only has a value of 9, I see that now. I must have looked at STR_ARMORED_VEST_PROTEAN_UC before, which has a value of 12. What difference proteins make.
You might want to double check that.Yes, it seems some instances of the liquidator armour have different values for visibilityAtDark, although I don't know which is the one I'm getting when I pay for it (numbers are :
What does the description say about that armor? Would you mind quoting it here?The description of the Liquidator armour says it has better NV (night vision?) than the armoured vest, but how is that reflected in the stats, exactly? The only stats that seem relevant to my eyes are camouflageAtDark (neither armour has a listing), visibilityAtDark and personalLight (both armours 12 and 5 respectively).
