Compiled for game version 1.1.2
This mod highlights items that are better than the ones the current character is wearing to make it easier to identify them at a glance.
In this version, you can choose the armor comparison method in the config.xml file included in the mod.
This is the default configuration:
The possible values for armor comparison are:
market_value
Compares items according to their market value.
In this case, a luxurious decorated bracer may be considered better than a non-decorated one that offers higher armor.
armor_efficiency
Compares items according to the sum of the respective weighted armor values.
Body armor is valued higher than limb armor.
The formula is based on the vanilla calculation of equipment efficiency.
These are the weighted values:
total_armor
Compares items according to the sum of the respective armor components.
With this method, all armor components are considered as important, so a piece of armor that provides more limb protection than torso, may be considered better than one that provides more torso armor.
For both armor efficiency and total armor methods, the armor weight is ignored in the calculation.
For weapons, I found that market values is the most accurate measure since weighing the individual weapon characteristics is far too complicated.
