Functions

Armor Rework

Material Effects
  • Each material type have different resistance value to different damage type (cut, pierce, blunt). Armor and shield will benefit from its material type.
  • Material resistance will combine the effective defense value to calculate two armor effects: Threshold and Penetration rate.
  • Added configs relate to armor effect and material resistance

Armor
  • There are 4 armor material in vanilla: cloth, leather, chainmail, plate.
  • Armor can block low damage.
  • Low damage projectile will not be sticked on the armor.
  • The armor penetration calculation counts every armor pieces the hit body part has, while vanilla uses the total defense value.
  • In damage calculation, the base damage will combine armor effective defense, hit body part to calculate the random factor in the hit, which will reduce armor effects. The purpose is to simulate armor thickness distribution.
  • Although vanilla armor only provided 4 part of defense, the random factor entend it to 7 body part . For now, it's not configurable

Shield
  • There are 2 shield armor material defined: wooden, metal.
  • Increased shield armor damage reduction.
  • Low damage projectile will not be sticked on the shield.

    By default, all range weapon speed are reduced to make it feels more natural. Speed will be increased by weapon skill.
  • Added configs relate to weapon thrust speed, thrust damage and missile speed.
  • Make projectile shoot by range weapon that have penetrate shield flag being able to penetrate shield.
  • Modified arrow, bolt and javelin air friction to make the damage reduction by distance lower.

Agent Speed

Human Max Speed

  • Any of your hands without weapon will reduce the weight penalty.
  • Wield two-handed range weapon (bow, crossbow etc) will reduce max speed.

Human Combat Speed
  • The combat speed is the speed when you are attacking ,defending and raising your weapon. Generally it will reduce your speed in vanilla.

Mount
  • Take rider weight into mount burden calculation. Generally reduced mount max speed to 6 - 12.
  • Mount burden will increase mount charge damage while reducing mount max speed.
  • Added configs relate to mount speed calculation.


Combat Mechanics

Alternative Attack
  • You body is your weapon. Alternative attack is blunt damage and garrented 2 damage after armor effects calculation. With high skill level, the alternative attack will help you deal with heavy armor units.
    Alternative attack type: Fist, Kick, Bash.
  • Changed alternative attack base magnitude formula. Damage relate to human body part weight, armor weight, armor material type, weapon weight, weapon type and weapon center of mass.
    Increase weight will increase damage at begin, but too much weight will reduce your damage.
  • Reduced the cool down of alternative attack.

Defend Collision
  • When defending a melee hit, the energy will be calculated. It will determine the stun period of attacker and defender. It also determined the crush through attack chance.
  • Attacker base energy is the attack base magnitude. If attacker doing heavy attack, the attack energy will get bonus from attacker weapon weight, arm weight, armor weight. Up direction attack gets more energy bonus than swing left or right.
  • Defender base energy is relate to their max HP. Then get extra factor from the defending weapon class, weapon weight, relative skill level arm weight, armor weight, block type (block, parry, chamber block).
  • Stun period of attacker and defender relate to their energy and defender block type.
