Add a way to intentionally lessen the eye protection of welding gear
Add a way to craft a "lesser" welding mask that applies less tint but also applies less eye protection (sunglasses-level of protection). This'd let it (the new type of welding helmet) be used with sunglasses without fully blinding you, while also not being strong enough to fully shield your eyes from welding on its own.
Just make the recipe require a welding mask and something to file away some of the eye protection with or something.

Can’t you just push the welding mask/goggles away when you aren’t welding anything? You don’t even have to take them off.

Re: Add a way to intentionally lessen the eye protection of welding gear
I’m sure coding a rare welding mask that works with shades which needs to be specifically acquired for the entire one job that wears no armored helmet and wears sunglasses, which usually doesn’t weld enough to worry about protection stronger than shades, will be a worthwhile addition to the game, and will save many more seconds than it will take to code, and will be far better than “putting the mask down when you’re right next to the thing you’re welding and back up when you’re done”. Yes, this needless bloat is the solution to all our problems, it’d never fit in minor suggestions, it NEEDED a thread.

That job s moth sec officer/warden; I'd rather not have to choose between being fully blind, having no secHUDs, or being blinded/flashed by my coworkers' flashbangs/someone whom I know has a flash just because the flash protection helmets available all work TOO well.confused rock wrote:I’m sure coding a rare welding mask that works with shades which needs to be specifically acquired for the entire one job that wears no armored helmet and wears sunglasses, which usually doesn’t weld enough to worry about protection stronger than shades, will be a worthwhile addition to the game, and will save many more seconds than it will take to code, and will be far better than “putting the mask down when you’re right next to the thing you’re welding and back up when you’re done”.

Same with sec, except call over an engineer or one of the countless greys.

Re: Add a way to intentionally lessen the eye protection of welding gear
Oof, alright.
It was just rUIniNG My iMMeRsoN that there's nothing between "welding helmet" and "no protection at all" in the eye protection-granting helmet field, but it's honestly not that bad.

Re: Add a way to intentionally lessen the eye protection of welding gear
My immersion is kept intact knowing there’s no “kinda protective” helmet. That’d be awkward and imply people actually weld while wearing shades instead of taking literally half a second to take them off, thus ruining my immersion.

Hold the shades and one hand and your welder in another. Is it that hard?
