Melee Combat Extended

1.4.5

1. Shields can now be saved in loadouts
They will be properly loaded along with other weapons

2. Vaulting over obstacles now works with melee weapons unsheathed

1.4.4

This is a compatibility update meant to improve the long-term usability of MCE:
- animation graphs and player_main workspace now override vanilla Arma Reforger files instead of being fully separate duplicates
- SCR_MeleeComponent and SCR_MeleeCommandHandler are no longer fully replaced by custom scripts in the base character prefab, instead they are now using "modded class" pattern

These 2 changes should improve:
- compatibility of MCE with Arma Reforger updates
- compatibility of MCE with other animation mods

- Increased the hitbox size for all MCE melee weapons (doubled the radius from 0.1 to 0.2), it is now easier to hit enemies in multiplayer during lags

- Extended inventory scripts that handle attachment actions to support bayonets with weapon components

1.1.0

1. Armor can now protect against melee damage
- It also supports multiple layers of protection - for example, jacket and vest will both reduce damage dealt to the chest area (if configured properly)
- Requires a custom SCR_MCE_ArmorHItZone component to be used (see the tutorial on GitHub)

2. Added 4 sample armor pieces that showcase the melee damage protection pipeline (they use base game armor models):
- Kevlar reinforced brown jacket (suit)
- Kevlar reinforced brown pants (suit)
- Plated PASGT vest
- Padded PASGT helmet

3. All custom weapons and armors now use the localization keys for names, descriptions and tooltip text

4. Added new features to the custom FFA map:
- Players spawn equipped with 4 sample armor pieces which are configured to work against melee damage: jacket, pants, armored vest and helmet
