This mod also includes new UI elements such as damage direction indicators, on-hit sound indicators, and downed icons in 3D space. In order to put a ceramic plate into your vest, you must have a ceramic plate item in your inventory and press and hold the key bind to perform the action (default: T). The ceramic plates themselves are an inventory item that needs to be inserted into vests to provide protection. The unit will only take damage if the ceramic plates in the unit’s vests are fully destroyed. The armor plates have their own amount of HP which will act as a layer above the unit’s HP. This system gives each unit health points (HP) which will be reduced by incoming damage. Originally this system was created to accommodate the play style used by the streamer Beagle over at, though as usual I want to share this with the whole community.

It is meant to abstract Arma 3’s vanilla damage and streamline the vanilla medical system. Info - Standalone modeThe Armor Plates System (APS) is at its core a stand-alone medical system.
