- Degradation for NPC.
- Quality of item matters for degrading, make your legendary weapons everlasting
- Jamming when firing badly damaged weapons!
- Bullet count matters for degradation.
- All features Toggleable.

- Jecrell: cause he is great and his code helped me a lot.
- Pardeike: cause of his work on Harmony.

Lindorm,
thanks for this mod.
But could you please add a non-steam download ?
If you want it workshop only, no problem, but then there is no reason for a forum entry.

Apologies! I've uploaded the whole code to github including source code.
You can find it here -> https://github.com/LimeTreeSnake/Equipment-Deterioration (https://github.com/LimeTreeSnake/Equipment-Deterioration)
Update: Added functionality for deterioration of weapons upon use.
Critical Update, resolved issue with turrets and other non-pawn things being calculated.
I've been waiting so damn long for this mod to happen, thanks a grand! This is a feature that is truly lacking from vanilla game.
Does it work on modded equipment? Should I place it high or low on modlist?

Yes, I've been using it with tons of weapon mods without fault.
It uses harmony thus inserts itself whenever a certain firing method is called. It should not truly matter where you put this mod in the mod load order but I tend to keep it rather high up / middle.
Should you face any issues, do tell!
Hi, is this mod still functional? I'd love to see a version that adds a stat for a weapon so one can customize the amount of shots a weapon fires before it takes a degradation hit, so we can have different weapons with different degradation patterns. It would mesh really well with repairing.
Apologies for the late reply!
I am still using my mod, had no problems with it so far. :)
Your suggestion does sound neat but that'd require patching all weapons with said stat.
As of this moment, weapons that fire a lot of rounds tend to take (albeit I'd claim more realistic) more damage as a consequence which in turn does not bode well for miniguns and whatnot. Although you can tweak the rate of degradation to a much lower rate, say, 0.1% chance of 1 damage per bullet and just keep the daily chance of degradation.
I'll play around with the thought and I just might come up with an alternative calculation for individual weapons as per suggestion.

Yes, a very small percentage as a chance to damage the gun per shot is the ideal approach to take, since on average it will drop durability at the same rate. However, i'd warn you that it would only be feasible with other mods in conjunction, such as Mending, so players can maintain their Legendary weapons, or keep this percentage really really low so only a very unlucky streak would drop the weapon's durability.

Indeed, it is already possible to tweak the deterioration rate in the mod settings. It is also entirely possible to change the rate depending if it's a melee weapon or a ranged weapon. :) Simply use the slider in the mod settings to change the values to whatever you prefer.
I for one relish the fact that weapons with time break down, much more interesting in the tribal runs I do whenever I get my hands on a weapon far beyond my own technology level. However, as you say, using this mod in conjunction with say, mending mod does add another layer of depth.
New update out.

Weapons dont get damage while shooting ;c
Apologies, was a bug added when I added the jamming feature. It should be fixed now. Do tell if you find any other issues!
Just wanted to say this mod seems 100% compatible with CombatExtended, for anyone wondering.
2019-09-08
- Added check that it actually is activated if it should deteriorate instead of taking it for granted...
whoooops
2019-09-12
-Made a check to see if instance is a building, if so then it should not be calculated.
-added a check to disqualify miniguns (Minigun 2) from firing calculation. Toggleable in the modsettings.

Weapons degradation alerts are always shown, no matter what value is set in the settings, 25 or 95, a warning is still shown as soon as the quality drops below 100%.
i fixed the problem with the warning always showing below 100%. it was rather easy.
the mod calcualtes current health of item / max health of item < set level at which it should warm.
current and max health are somehow treated as integers so so i can only store 0 1 and 0,xx will always be rounded down to 0.
adding in a type cast (float) seemed to help.
fixed the error with turrets on shot trying to degrade their non existant weapon

Thanks for this. Just want to point out this only fixes mini turrets, other turrets still have errors, not as big of a deal though.
I seem to have found a bug as well, if the guns are at 100% hit pots, they never degrade. I have vanilla degradation turned on and they never degrade, no matter how much time passes or how much they shoot.
Weapons below 100% do degrade both with vanilla method and shooting.
That is actually a feature I think. I also didn't like it a d removed it from my personal version. (not the one posted here)
Is this mod Combat Extended compatible? I have tested it with 100 shots, but weapon didn't degrade (even been when damaged before).

Could you please share that one as well? I'd much rather have it that way too. Thanks.
well this is the altered version i use (plus sources), but it is stripped of some features i were not using in hopes of optimizing performance by reducing garbace colletion of c#. (it is not really relevant nor noticable)
the version i posted before was the original with my attempt at fixing the 2 bugs and leaving the rest unchanged.
This is not my mod. i feel a bit uneasy posting here anything beyond bug fixes...

It's exactly how I wanted. Thank you very much!

Your altered version to this mod actually works incredibly well even with weapons that were unaffected by the original mod. Can we hope to have this on steam workshop?
Many thanks for doing this!
I will get to updating my mod with more features as I find time. Have been cooperating a lot with OskarPotocki and have not had much time to work on my own mods lately. *sighs* But I will get to it. In the meanwhile, use Geojak's version as it seems to be a stable version!
