How to negate insect damage in PA?

[audiodef]

I know there are already power armor mods, but none do exactly what I have in mind. I've looked through the CK and it looks like I would have to script what I want to do. I could use some advice, being new to CK scripting.

 

What would I have to do to make a PA mod that makes PA impervious to very specific things?

 

Those things are:

• Insects
• Dogs
• Melee, fists, etc.

I don't want to merely increase damage resistance. I was thinking it makes no sense that bloatflies, dogs and fists can damage your PA or you while you're wearing PA. I want to negate damage from those but leave other damage types intact.

I found the perk entry point "Mod Incoming Weapon Damage", and conditions can be set on perk owner, attacker, and attacker weapon.

So maybe you can set damage value 0.0 with condition "attacker HasKeyword ActorTypeBug == 1.0" etc.

Thanks! I will go look for that in the CK. :)

Yes, Akiras404 is on the right track, however you may not actually take damage, you will still make noise as if your taking damage or

 

Here go download this mod: BUG OFF! https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11684 - solves Insect issues

Then this mod - NMDD - No More Dead Dogs - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/19754 - solves dog issues

 

Well that's a quarter of the damage gone in the game.

 

Now you just need to set perks for Melee Damage, Unarmed Damage, etc...

or go in the Armor Section, rename ID of the type of Power Armor you want T-45, T-51 ect... Bottom Right - Resist Damage - Right-Click - select New pick from the list and put 10000 on each piece for that Power Armor, also rename it, put armor health to 10000, Save, go in game help "New Armor" 4 armo - player.additem, then equip and then your set.

 

Or just avoid All The Above and type "tgm" in console "basically the same thing just simpler... And act as if you are in REAL Power Armor "which would be the case till pieces fall off, the whole reason you get PA in the first place... Right?

Your post got in there three times...

 

That's not where I want to go. I don't want to remove bugs or make PA impervious. I just want to edit the PA attributes to what I think is more realistic.

 

People shoot you with bullets = your PA takes a hit.

 

Some bloatfly shoots a maggot at you = your PA laughs and shrugs it off. Seriously, a maggot is not going to make a dent in a piece of metal. However, I want the bugs still in the game because they can hurt you when you're not wearing PA.

 

Someone punches you - THEY should get hurt from hitting solid metal, but anyway, your PA is not going to get dented with a fist. PA could be damaged by one of those heavy gauntlets, though.
