1 year ago That is a bit strange. The settings you have shown should only affect the torso damage calculation. If it is not the torso region then the damage as such is being passed down the line to ACE's damage handling. Meaning limbs and head should be the same behavior as ACE.
The torso receiving less damage is also strange. If no plates are found the plate reduction returns the same damage as has happened prior. there is a bit of math involved, the incoming damage is being multiplied by the vanilla damage reduction of the uniform and vest for the hit point. then it is passed into the plate damage reduction function, which then returns an interpolated value of the actual damage. That value is the same mathematically of the original damage if there are no plates involved. Hence why that test result is strange.
As an example. Torso receives 5 damage. no vests thus no plates on the unit. Damage before uniform and vest damage reduction is as example 8. The calculation begins, the plate reduction functions is being fed the 8 damage, and it returns 8 damage as there are no plates. then the original damage is being interpolated with the pre damage reduction value of 8 and the plate damage reduction of 8
so: original_damage (plate_reduction_damage / pre_reduction_vanilla_damage) resulting in: 5 (8/8) = 5
It would be probably better to use the addWound function from ace as that should in theory also go down the whole handler routine as being shot. It might bring a lot clearer test results. Disabling AI medics also might be good idea else they keep healing themselves.

Mods (complete and add to the following information):
All are stable versions.
Description:
AI characters without vests (survivor class - CSAT side for example), are not experiencing damages they should when APS is enabled. Velocity wounds are becoming bruises resulting from energy transfer of a vest with armor plate instead.
Steps to reproduce:
Place survivor character, shoot and check damages.
Expected behavior: Normal velocity wounds for characters not carrying an armor.
Where did the issue occur?
Editor (Singleplayer). But might occurs in MP too.
Additional context: None
