as title says, the newly added config part for alfsteel armor doesnt work, when i change armor or toughness values they dont carry over into game.

Did you restart the game after changing the config? And how did you verify the values?

Well, after starting the game, generating the config and changing it I then restarted the game and the newly adjusted values didn't show, only the vanilla ones. I also tried putting it on to see if it was just a visual bug, but the armor bar also only showed the vanilla amount of armor points. I also tried it out with the MMM target dummy mod to make sure it wasn't just a visual bug, and it really seems like the config doesn't impact the in game values at all. To add to that, I was changing some values for the armors in the "gobber 2" mod at the same time, and they worked fine after restarting the game.

Also quick note while trying some stuff: changing the durability values of items works fine
