[A17] An Unfortunate Misfeed v1.0.1 (11/24/2017) - Guns Now Misfire and Jam

[dburgdorf]

This seems brilliant.  Some day, when I finally find time to actually *play* RimWorld instead of just working on mods, I'll definitely be adding this to my mod list.

I know the feeling burg. Bogged down by mod authoring... and spreadsheet making.

What a nice compliment. Thanks!

Anymore good ideas? I've finished my road map.

Looks cool! I just fond this and obviously haven't' played with it yet...

Does this make combat easier as raiders tend to have terrible weapons where as, I tend to have 100% Good (or better)?

I am terrible at the game so I'm not entirely sure. The base balance is still largely not play-tested but will be tweaked as I get more play time with the mod and any community suggestions.

That moment when your newly produced legendary charge rifle explodes in first burst. (Salty intesefines)

[Spleenling]

Does this work with modded-in Guns?

[maculator]

I don't hate the mod, i simply wont use it, what i hate is the idea of Tynan using it in the base game, and knowing him, anything that adds drama is a good addition.

Drama is what defines the game! The moment your colony gets erased by a poison ship dropping right infront of your kitchen you get verry mad but after playing a new colony for a while you remember that moment and all the little stories of your past colony and you think "actually this was fun".

Hi there, I have not played the mod yet, but I like the Idea behind it.

Added a chance for a gun to misfire and explode. Size of explosion based on ammunition.

Out of curiosity .. could you clarify this feature for me ?
Between CE and Vanilla I wonder to what you are referring with ammunition.

was playing around a bit with your mod (i like it xD ) i got a red error poping into my console when raided by some guys with molotov cooktails.

I must notify you, your mod breaks frag grneades, molotov cooktails and emp grenades both on enemy raiders and on colonist.

if anyone tries to throw then, then instead it will pop the red error. error wont stop until you drop the grenades on the ground.

ah and by the way. bows and pilas being jammes makes not much sense to me. is it possible to exclude these weapons from jamming? maybe the same way of excluding stuff could be used to fix the grenades bug.

anyway. i hope you see this

edit: i added a little bit of dirty code into your source to exclude grenades and bows from jamming. the way i coded it it doesnt support non vanilla weapons and is quite cpu unoptimised.

this code comes after your turret fix

var X = __instance.verbProps.projectileDef.defName.ToString();
                     
               
               
if (X == "Proj_GrenadeFrag" || X == "Proj_GrenadeMolotov" || X == "Proj_GrenadeEMP" || X == "Arrow_Short" || X == "Pilum_Thrown" || X == "Arrow_Great")
                {
//Weapon is not a suppost to be jammable.;
                    return true;
                }

if anyone can do it better, please contact me

Great mod!

Will you release it on the Steam Workshop?

I suggest checking the projectile speed and if it is below e.g. 55 (the speed of a crossbow bolt in Combat Realism), never jam. This encompasses most (all?) weapons that shouldn't jam (manual bows, thrown spears). It probably also includes grenades but to be safe I recommend a check on whether the projectile causes an explosion.

Speaking of Combat Realism, supporting it is easy, one just needs to allow for the fact that Verb_LaunchProjectile has been replaced by Verb_LaunchProjectileCE.

Has anyone tested this with Rimsenal? I have been watching this Mod with interest but do not wish to install this if it is likely to break existing mods. If not how much XML work would be needed to adapt it?

Not surprised I missed this . I also broke turrets in the initial go round. I'll see about officially fixing it this weekend and looking into CE compatibility. My colonies never last long enough for me to get advanced gear.

I plan to fix some bugs this weekend and will try and review Rimsenal.
