There is a new way to create an AC calculation in Racial Specials that was added in one of the last two updates. If you create a new Racial Special, you can scroll to the very end and easily set up an AC calculation using CON, DEX and a Shield.
Simply, check the Armor Class Calculation? checkbox, fill in the new base AC (if with now DEX/CON/Shield bonuses your AC is 12, put in 12) for the Base Value. Finally, click the button for AC modifiers and choose which modifiers will be used.
This doesn't turn off the ability to equip armor though. What happens is HL will calculate all the AC available and choose the best number.
There is a script on the tortle PC in the Tomb of Annihilation file that basically sets the AC bonus of any armor put on to 0 if you want to try and address the edge case that plate armor is better than the new AC calculation that you can look at as an example. The tortle was created before these new racial options, so the script is on the base PC version of the tortle.
