What Is This?

This mod adds the ability to paint certain items black, green or camo if a camo variant exists.

Currently only set up for vanilla items.

Due to the incomplete integration of this feature with vanilla mechanics, I found it easiest to just make a JSON config to set which items can be painted which colours.

If an item has a "camo" variant, then using a green or black spraycan on an already-painted version of that item will produce the camo variant.

To strip the paint of a weapon and convert it back to its vanilla skin use a disinfected rag on it (ie. pour alcohol on a rag, then scrub the rifle/item).

You will need to add the following items to your loot table's types.xml:

Zen_Spraycan_Black
Zen_Spraycan_Green

You can theoretically use any spraycan which inherits from vanilla Spraycans, but the above 2 items have stringtables set up with language translations etc.
