Armour technology [Not a bug]

[dorn]

I would say that there is a bug in that technology as seawolf provided information about "armor mod" value here and bellow.

Inclined belt ads quality of armour and it should not as protection is linked only if inclined belt is used.
However it seems that "Interlocked armor plates" does not provide better protection which is not logical and not in line with description "Gradual improvement of armour quality".

I think that technology "Inclined belt should" have added value 0 to armor mod and "Interlocked armour plates" should added value 1 to armor mod.

Interlocked armour plates does add to armor quality. I just checked the code.

As for the inclined armor adding to armor quality, several techs work so that they add to the general level in the field but also has a more specific effect. So this is not a bug.

This was not from reading files, this was from in game testing, so it could very well be a bug in the code.

I had checked it on new game. I edit save and give that technology and it ads 1 in armor mod, so it seems ok.

So if there is a bug, save is needed to show it as it is more hidden.
