Backpacks Expanded 2.0 (Quivers added!)

Description

Update 2.0 is LIVE!
After making my own faction/armor mod I decided to get back to Backpacks Expanded and deliver some of my promises regarding it. So the main focus of this update are quivers! I've also refied some stats and tweaked a couple of textures based on the feedback I've been given, hopefully the backpack will feel a bit more usefull for you all.



Backpacks:
-Adventurer's Backpack
-Darkened Adventurer's Backpack [NEW!]
-Leather Backpack (Previously known as "Improvised Leather Backpack")
-Thieves Tool Belt
-Refitted Oil Drum Backpack [Craftable]
-Improvised Backpack [Craftable]

Backpacks enchance the gameplay by adding more variery among the containers. Some of them are good for sneaking, some weight a ton but have a lot of storage space (old fashioned strength training anyone?).

Backpacks can be bought at most 'travel and gear' shops scattered around the world.


Quivers:
-Big Bolt Quiver [NEW!]
-Small Bolt Quiver [NEW!] (Needs different texture from the Big Bolt Quiver)
-Improvised Metal Quiver [NEW!]
-Improvised Mesh Quiver [NEW!]
-Improvised Leather Quiver [NEW!]
-Improvised Wooden Quiver [NEW!]

Quivers are light and are used to store ammunition for crossbows. They can't fit anything else than bolts most of the time but they offer great stacking. Ideal for non haulers and dedicated crossbowmans.

Quivers offer limited storage space but they also have increased stacking and weight reduction. It's still equally good to store your bolts in a backpack. Quivers are supossed to be a cosmetic, roleplay item that still has a viable function in the game.

They can also be worn with some backpacks! The bonuses will stack, but only one item will be visible on the character. To access the invisible container inventory, just click the visible one with left mouse button. (At least that's how it worked for me)

Quivers can be bought at at almost every 'ranged' shops scattered around the world.


Crafting Station:
-Crafting Junk Pile [NEW!]





The station can be built anywhere, doesn't create an outpost. You need 10 iron ore to build it and it takes a longer while.

Every item with "Improvised" in it's name will be craftable by using 5 iron ore and 2 animal skins.

Unfortunately, backpack crafting wasn't properly implemented in to the game by the developer and the result is that the backpacks/quivers are crafted instantly and the recipe can't be different for each one.

Hey there!

First off, thanks so much for the amazing work on this mod. I’ve really enjoyed it and would love to translate it into Spanish so more people can enjoy it. Of course, all credit will go to you.

I’m a bit of a beginner when it comes to modding, and I’m still learning the ropes, but I’d love to contribute by making this translation available. Would it be alright if I upload it here on Steam? I’ll make sure to link back to the original mod so others can support it too.

Cheers.

Hello. Your mod is great! I used it in my maksimum kenshi mod set, I hope you won't mind. I will definitely indicate your mod in the list of used mods. Thank you in advance.

quiver may use belt slot. not backpack slot.

This mod looks cool! The backpacks have nice models and also feel like they'd fit well into vanilla kenshi!

Hm, I think it was set in the backpack window and not research window. Honestly, I haven't touched FCS for 3 or more years, can't really help you but I hope I nudged you in the right direction! :holyflame:

I'm trying to edit the research to allow all of the backpacks to be crafted but can't find the research in the mod editor. What am I missing? Also, if someone can do just that and post the mod to the workshop it'd be just swell, I say. :steamhappy:

Crafting Junk, there seems to be a bug that can't be selected and can't be removed correctly

@Elwo - This is a great mod and your assets are fantastic. Would you permit me to use your meshes/textures (specifically the leather and explorer bags) in a backpack rebalance mod I've been working on? I'm happy to give credit to you and point mod back to yours. Thanks!

Can't shoot with quiver equipped and filled with bolts. In short, models of all quivers look beautiful but they don't work half of the time or are false in their description. I would avoid this until someone hopefully makes a fix.

Small Bolt Quiver can carry only 1 stack of heavies.
