I've been watching this playthrough from Red on the ol' youtuberino, and the latest episode highlighted something I am unhappy with. Namely, repairing Power Armor requires Repair Kits (this isn't changing), but the text is cut off for the "materials required" bit. This leads to confusion with the Torso pieces, specifically, because the Torso requires two kits to be repaired.

Anyway, Red and I were chatting, and I was thinking...do you like the idea behind different PA sets having different Repair Kits, or would you prefer one Universal Power Armor Repair Kit to repair all types of Power Armor, regardless of its quality?

For reference, the idea behind the Repair Kits is pretty simple. I always see the PA Stations around the Commonwealth, but I never have the "correct" junk to repair my stuff on the fly. So now I can just lug around a couple of Repair Kits, and those stations are now useful. As for the various types of Kits, the cost to craft them is literally identical to the components/perks you'd need to repair them in the vanilla way. But this can also make the inventory look a tad cluttered, so if the Universal kit method would be preferable, I'd like to hear it.

Your thoughts?

Thats a really tough question. I guess I am leaning towards the universal PA kit. I guess this leads to the question, can mod added PA use a universal repair kit? If so, then thats the route I would go.

I think the universal kits would just be easier to keep up with a long with keeping the inventory clean.
