The many-guns problem

[Nasikabatrachus]

Aside from the resource compression mod I made, my preferred solution is for gunfights to be much more dangerous and for guns to be much rarer. IMO, gunfights should be tense, and getting enough body armor, helmets, food, and ammunition to survive really large conflicts should be a challenge.

How about a crafting table, that can turn guns into usefull scrap metal?

- yes to ammo. Colonists would always try to stock up on a specific amount (I'd say 4-5 clips/magazines worth). Why define that by magazine size and not a single number? Because different weapons have different RoF and ammo consumption. So 60 bullets might be fine for  someone with a pistol, but it would be little for someone with an AR.

- guns can be disassembled and you get weapon parts (more specifically pistol parts, rifle parts, gunpowder, etc..)

- you can use those to repair existing guns, upgrade them or try and create new ones.
