Items And Loot Archive

Items I would like to see, that can be *easily* programmed into the game;

Expanded Cargo Belt - takes one Reinforced Fiber Panel, and is a wearable container that holds 40 items. Artwork etc,can be that of the Padded Armor Belt, as the Padded Armor Belt already uses a Tailor palette. Could probably be a Fieldwear 3 or Fieldwear 4 schematic.

Utility Belt - aka the "StormTrooper belt". This could be modified to take one Synthetic Cloth panel, and it too should be a wearable contaner that holds 30 items. Should be a level 1 or 2 schematic.

Commando Helmet - Defined as clothing, not armor, this helmet is already in the game. Should be able to take a Reinforced Fiber Panel. Another Fieldwear schematic.

Ideally, there would be a regular tailor schematic for these, and also a rare, limited use schematic that has modifiers similar to the "Field Agent's Backpack" and "Special Forces Backpack". (i.e. +3 melee defense, +3 ranged defense, and two other miscellaneous but useful modifiers).

Since the two belts would be "Wearable Containers", it would not be possible to wear a backpack in addition, as the game will only allow one equipped wearable container at a time.

Anyone have thoughts or ideas on this subject?

i like the idea's but i think that a belt and a pack should be able to be worn at the same time. =)

I too like the idea of the belt containers, but I think they'd be often used if they could be worn along witha backpack. Sort of an expansion on your carrying needs.

IMHO, whatthe game really needs for clothing is patterns. Imagine a guy with tye-die shirts for sale, or smugglers and thugs strolling around Mos Eisley with the Hutt Insignia on their backs. Now that I'm thinking about it, maybe Image Designers having the ability to add body tattoos?

But, I digress. No need for a constructive thread to be hijacked.

Well, the way the game is currently coded, there is *no* way to have two wearable containers equipped. You can't have a backpack on your back and a (looted) satchelslung overyour shoulder. My statement was more of a reminder than anything else. :-)

Basically, I want some form of wearable container that is not a backpack or a bandolier. The only thing left is a belt.

I was wondering if anyone else felt that maybe 40 items for the "expanded cargo belt" and 30 items for the "utility/stormtrooper" belt was appropriate, or if maybe the limits would be too low for something that would effectively replace a backpack?

I understand that there are people who would never wear one of these things because you couldn't also wear a PSG... but that's okay from my point of view. :-)
