ACP reduced if caused by armor or load?

[TCArknight]

Is there any ability that does this already?

when bearing a large load or burdened by weighty armor, 
the dwarven crossbowyer fares better than others. At 1st level, he 
reduces his armor-check penalty by 1 when the penalty is caused by 
armor or by carrying a medium or heavy load. This ability never 
reduces the armor-check penalty below 0. At 5th level and every 5
levels thereafter, the reduction increases by a further +1 (+2 at 5th 
level, +3 at 10th, and so on).

I'm looking to grab a script that would handle this if possible. I also welcome any suggestions.

The trait "Armor Expert" is pretty close as it reduces the ACP down to a max value of 0.

It seems like that would work for whatever armor worn. But, what about then if it's caused from a load instead?

So I did some testing by taking a blank character and putting a load on to the character until he was medium encumbered. And sure enough -3 ACP value appears telling me that this had to be controlled at the hero level.

So I looked at the fields on the hero and found:


Looks like the fields you can adjust to change the encumbrance limits for weight. Just have to do some scripting to make sure it does not go past zero.

P.S. - Just tested by creating a Proof of Concept scripting using an Adjustment. I find these to be fast way to test scripts out and it does work if you are around First/10000 timing.
