Padding a back pack diminishes encumbrance

[matt32106]

Describe the bug

I use a tailor kit to modify a survivor rucksack. The window that pops up says that encumbrance will go from 14 -> 5

Steps To Reproduce

Summon tailor kit and rucksack. Use tailor kit to modify the bag.

Expected behavior

Encumbrance shouldn't diminish when you add material.

Screenshots

If I modify the bag then the encumbrance increase to 16. So it is the message which is wrong.

This probably happens only with variable encumbrance gear such as backpacks. Will look into it.

It's very likely displaying the max encumbrance in the first part, and the normal encumbrance in the second.

[RoyBerube]

Is this happening on the stable branch? The screenshot displays the storage capacity which is no longer shown in the latest experimental branch. That section of code has been removed - probably because it can never change. Also it is missing the ballistic stat.

Anyway, it seems that variable encumbrance is not changing for backpacks now in experimental. So I can't replicate this problem due to that.

Closing as "section of code has been removed" from experimental.
