Fantastic mod. So far, my only disappointment is that the inventory bonus is different. I would like to be able to take advantage of the inventory bonus afforded by the industrial if I have to swap to that tier's aggro equipment. Otherwise, I love the difference between the aggro and industrial equipment, the specialization is one of the coolest parts of the mod, so I don't want to disable specialized armors. But having different inventory size bonus makes it problematic to swap. If I lose 20 inventory slots because I have to go fight suddenly, that can mean dumping a lot of important stuff on the ground.

Different inventory capacity is a wanted feature.
Still, you got a point, dumping things on the ground due to an emergency is a thing that I haven't thought of...
Sorry if my reply came with a "bit" of delay, I'll see how I can rebalance this thing.

Hi, I got something for you mate.

Version: 6.0.0

Date: 2024.04.05

Balancing:

- I know many of you could get frustated when loading a save and seeing part of the inventory on the ground,
  so I want to warn you: BONUS INVENTORY SIZE IS GETTING SLIGHTLY NERFED.
- Due to the introduction of the backpack equipment, all that extra inventory space needs to be sligtly adjusted to make sense:
  - Power armor mk3 bonus inventory size: 50 --> 40
  - Power armor mk4 bonus inventory size: 60 --> 50
  - Power armor mk5 bonus inventory size: 70 --> 60
  - Power armor mk6 bonus inventory size: 80 --> 70
    (If you notice now every tier of armor, vanilla included, gives you an extra 10 spaces by each tier.)
- Same happened for the industrial armors: (Now armors of the same level give you the same amount of extra inventory.)
  - Industrial armor mk1 bonus inventory size: 40 --> 30
  - Industrial armor mk2 bonus inventory size: 60 --> 50
  - Industrial armor mk3 bonus inventory size: 80 --> 70

Thanks, the new update looks great. I will be trying it out soon. Yeah, the whole different size inventories for different suits was completely negating the ENTIRE point of the mod (specialty sets that I can swap between for different tasks) for me, so glad that appears to have been addressed. If, for example, a building set of armor has 20 extra inventory that the combat set doesn't, when wearing the building set I have to be careful NOT TO use those slots in case I need to quickly switch to combat. Or be okay with dumping stuff on the ground.

I also like the idea of buildable components for the grid (backpacks) that add more bonus space (if I understand that part).

Yeah as I see it backpacks give you more room to customize your power armors and remove the problem of balancing their base extra inventory size.
At this point I dunno if it's the case to add another 3 tier of industrial armors instead of waiting for the 2 technology spike.
