set_armor

Configures selected armor fields for one live unit section.

Function

Synopsis

btech.unit.set_armor( unit, section, patch )

Arguments

DbRef|Object unit: The live unit.
BtechSection section: A typed constant from btech.unit.sections that is valid for the unit.
table patch: One or more of armor, internal, and rear_armor.

Returns

None.

Notes

Every supplied value must be an integer from 0 through 255. Each supplied value becomes both the section’s current and original value. rear_armor remains configurable on any existing section for compatibility with stored unit data. Outside a Mech’s center, left, and right torsos, that value is inert in combat and the immediate btech.repair.apply operation refuses to change it; scheduled technician repairs may still restore the configured stored value.
