Permissions and credits
BETTER DLC ARMOUR RECIPES II


Requires at least ONE of Flames of the Inquisition, Jaws of Hakkon, Descent and Trespasser.

Makes one-piece DLC armour competitive*!
*or OP, it's your choice.


Recommended slot sizes;
T1: 23 Armour, 30 
T2: 23 Armour, 28, 5
T3: 23 Armour, 26, 5, 5
------------
[More Powerful] slot sizes;
T1: 25 Armour, 34 
T2: 25 Armour, 30, 9
T3: 25 Armour, 28, 9, 9
------------
[Even More Powerful] slot sizes;
T1: 27 Armour, 38 
T2: 27 Armour, 34, 13
T3: 27 Armour, 32, 13, 13



If you don't own one of the DLCs, untick the relevant tickbox on the Configure menu (this feature is untested, so I'll leave it and if nobody says it doesn't work then I'll assume it's fine).
If you're using the FROSTY version you might need all DLCs.

All armours in the affected DLCs get the same number of slots.
This mod does NOT change Slot Types or Materials of slots.

OPTIONAL
]Manually Changing default values:
Get Notepad++ from here: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download (DO NOT USE NORMAL NOTEPAD, it will break the mod)
Open the daimod in Notepad++
Scroll down (or Find) to this code...

ConfigElementsList.AddBoolElement("EnabledFlam",  "Enabled: Flames of the Inquisition", true);
ConfigElementsList.AddBoolElement("EnabledJaws",  "Enabled: Jaws",               true
);
ConfigElementsList.AddBoolElement("EnabledDesc",  "Enabled: Descent",             
true);
ConfigElementsList.AddBoolElement("EnabledTres",  "Enabled: Trespasser",           true
);
Change the value at the end of the line to whatever you want to be default: true (case sensitive) means enabled, false (case sensitive) means disabled (if you type anything other than either of these you will break the mod).

If you want to change the default power rating, find this line;

ConfigElementsList.AddEnumElement( "Power_Rating", "How Much Better? ",   typeof(Slots), 1)
The number at the end is the default item in the list, 0 is the first item (Minimal), 1 is 2nd item (Recommended), 2 is 3rd item (More Powerful), etc..

If you want to change the armour numbers, scroll down to this block;
byte[] ArmourSize =       new byte[5] { 19, 23, 25, 27, 99};
byte[] SlotTwoSize =      new byte[5] { 
20, 30, 34, 38, 99};
byte[] SlotTwoSizeTier2 = new byte[5] { 
15, 28, 30, 34, 99};
byte[] SlotTwoSizeTier3 = new byte[5] { 
10, 26, 28, 32, 99}; 
byte[] OtherSlotSize =    new byte[5] {
10,  5,  9, 13, 99};

The numbers in the "grid" are Menu option 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 as you go from left to right.
Example: Power rating "More Powerful" is third on the list, so 25,34, 30, 28 and 9 (going down on the third column). 
Those values work like this: 25 is for the Armour slot. At Tier 1 armour you get one slot, which is set to 34. At Tier 2, you get two slots, so slot 1 is 30 and Otherslot is 9. At tier 3 you get 3 slots, 28 and two Otherslot of size 9.
(If you go over 99, the game won't allow you to craft the item, if you go over 255, your game will likely crash/freeze).
