New ArmorTypes
#1
New armors were always wished for, instead I came up with a bugged immunity logic, which would only fulfill one of the purposes armors had (there's still damage percentages).

RP2 should feature true new amors. The question is in what way.

IIRC, VK introduced something like an [ArmorTypes] section which lists the new armors. Then on the warhead, you put EVerses with a list of damage percentages for each of the new armor types.

While the armor list is a good idea (it's not necessary, but good, see below), EVerses is a mess IMO.
I'd do it a pretty simple and overviewable way:
If you have an armor type called "Foo" and want it to be immune to a certain warhead, you'd put this on the warhead:
Code:
Versus.Foo=0%

Note that I fixed WW's misspelling of "Versus", which I could avoid as well if you prefer.
The default versus value would be 100% as usual.

The [ArmorTypes] list could be avoided as well. It would create a new armor type once triggered on a unit (ie you put "Armor=Foo" on a unit, it will create Foo automatically if it doesn't exist yet).
However, that will make it all a mess like the whole WeaponTypes logic...

So, what do you believe is easier to use?
EVerses or this?
An ArmorTypes list or none?
