"Rather than making armor that players would have to tediously

change into every time they handled the yellorium, an extra nuisance if
they need to clime up the reactor with out a jet pack, you could make
it an enchantment.

It could be applied to most armors and even jetpacks.

And preferably be applied by crafting the armor surrounded by reactor casing blocks.

A simple system that could be configured to make it much harder to make if needed."

"I personally like the idea of stand alone armour.




NJM1564 commented 11 days ago


Climes up to the top of the reactor top put in the yellorium. Hay look a zombie. Dies.

In 1.10 we need armor. And jetpacks will also be very important.

When I was playing Inf Skyblock I spent so much time switching back and
forth between the rad suit, jetpack, and dieing that I was sick of it.

Besides there are already 1000+ armors. And they are all mostly reskins of each other. I want to see a new idea.

Oh and isn't that a mask that represents anarchy? Are we supposed to
even take your comments seriously or are you just messing with us. :/"

"I'd say more enchantment then actual item.

Reason being is that (slowly) mods are either being caught up to
1.9.4/1.10.2 they themselves are in effect taking over from other mods
that never went further then 1.7.10.

NJM1564 have you actually worn a radation suit before? I have. Movement is very difficult. "Flying" is the same to expect pigs to fly backwards.

All comes down how realistic this is to be."

Or directly carried radioactive material? Moving radioactive material
around bin any significant quantity should be never done by hand.
Automated carts and heavy shedding should be the only except able
method. So yah if you wanted to go mineing in only a paper thin armor
that when breached will lead to certion death then yah lets go with
realism.

Now if you like adding some balance you could add a slow effect to
the player when he has the radiation protect enchant and is exposed to
radiation. IE carrying refined yellorium. Being a bit slow instead of
poisond seems like a good trade off.

Unrefined yellorium IE yellorium ore would only really require any
random armor to stave off the minor radiation. So iron armor would be
enough for protection.

And a low chance of poison and the chance increasing over time if not
wherein anything at all would all be a nice and interesting mechanic set
of mechanics.

Nothing to frustrating just a step in the posses of making a mid to end tear power source."

"If i can add some insight from the perspective of a player/modpack author of 1.9+ clears throat

Radiation was always just a hassle we had to deal with on a side-note
not as a serious issue since at the point where we were dealing with
uranium and such we had either ridiculous regen values applied to us by
botania/beacons/rftools/etc... that we could just shrug it off ezpz or
we had such armor/extra hearts that the damage values from the poison
were more or less nothing and the only problem was the player getting
hurt sound that was merely an annoyance so if you accept suggestions
heres mine:

-Slowness is a good trade off as NJM mentioned

-Armor values should be looked at instead of armor materials if youre
going for that because of the custom armors of 1.9+, currently we
encountered about 60+ armor types from various mods and im consciously
avoiding adding more but some still slip in every now and then.

-Radiation resistance could be applied by two means if not by armor and
those would be potion or enchantment. You could even add levels to these
so for example Rad Res 1 would protect you from radiating ores but not
ingots...2 from ingots and 3 from refined cunterparts like liquids or
high-end stuff like blutonium and ludicrite or you could just add level 4
and move some stuff up there idk.

Reasons to pick this method:

With the current setup of my modpack for example if i were to equip
myself with your armor which lets say has 7 armor 2 armor toughness on
the chestpiece - about eq to dia - i would be killed by any zombie that
wonders into my reactor area and hits me about 2-3 times...yes theyre
buffed af.

Also if you had a potion effect registered to protect from radiation
that could be used in custom maps as a pre-req quest reward so a player
could advance tru an area for example: "You've been trapped in this
underground nuclear facility, coolant-leak detected in zones H,J and R,
find the antidote(your potion)/the special gear(enchanted armor thats
capable of protecting you from both the enemies and the radiation) to
survive out there while you battle the infected personnel(zombies most
likely)".

What Im trying to say here is if you separate armor and protection from
radiation it opens up possibilities for authors like me and would be
greatly appreciated!

Anyyywaaay, thanks for continuing this awesome mod! Hope to see it out soon

Thanks for reading my "little" suggestiony thing :D"
