    Suggestion: Add a Weapon Upgrade System

    We had this in like, A14. I loved it. You would find triggers, barrels, uppers, stocks, etc and they each had their own quality. You combined them into a gun. If you had two low quality triggers you could combine those into a slightly better quality trigger. The quality of all parts determined...

    Changing a passive effect in an effect group?

    Gotcha'. Guess there isn't a clean way like there is when there's only one. Thanks to both of you! I'll decide on one method and move forward.

    Changing a passive effect in an effect group?

    Okay, but what if the devs change the value in an update? Is there a way to semi-future-proof it? Most of my modlets continued to work for the three years I was away due to the way I built them. Only two stopped due to UI changes. Is that not possible in this specific scenario?

    Changing a passive effect in an effect group?

    And I found a situation that I am not sure how to handle. I am working on a literally stupid mod to make guns, well, stupid, and I came across this on the 9mm pistol. <passive_effect name="EntityDamage" operation="base_add" value="5" tags="perkGunslinger"/> <!-- damage offset -->...

    Windows The indestructible block clang sound is terrible

    I don't have a direct answer for you, but I currently have 48 SMG turrets at my base. I do not ever recall hearing that sound when they shot and hit parts of my base. Is your base set to be in god-mode or something?

    XBOX Can’t load in

    I have a four-AA battery, black-n-white original GameBoy. I also have my GameGear (six AA's) with the TV tuner that hasn't worked since we went digital in 2009. Among other things...

    Why is the .44 magnum revolver entity damage base negative 5?

    Gotcha'. And no, they all don't start at a negative value. I was in "items.xml" looking. So far it is the only firearm I found with a negative value. Not sure Dirty Harry would approve, but heck, it still blows head clean off, so...

    XBOX Can’t load in

    Can you open the console on XBox? On PC you can open the console with F1 if the loading screen freezes and see what is going on. Not sure as I do not play on console any more. Maybe this will cheer you up. My last consoles were Dreamcast and Gamecube. Go on, laugh.

    Stolen Content

    Honestly, I think it would be cool if The Pimps decided some kind of content I make is game-worthy and they put it into the game as official. As for others using my work, I don't mind as long as credit is given. You put your work out there for the public and somebody might rip it off. Just how...

    Why is the .44 magnum revolver entity damage base negative 5?

    Yeah, I know how it works, it was just surprising to see it take damage away.

    Why is the .44 magnum revolver entity damage base negative 5?

    Topic says it all. I was looking at the pistols and noticed that the revolver and ONLY the revolver has a negative base entity damage. Why? What if I modded it from "-5" to "1"? Does it one-shot everything? Yes, I know I can go try and no, I do not believe it will, I am simply curious. So why is...

    Materials versus blocks for MaxDamage?

    Good to know. I don't recall that issue with my advanced blocks mod, so I must have done that. I haven't looked at the code I wrote in years. Maybe it's time to update it to v2.6.

    Materials versus blocks for MaxDamage?

    The code I showed is stock, not mine. I was using it as an example, but I understand what you're saying now. If I create a block and set Damage to 500 and MaxDamage to 20, it has 20 health and will hit a target (before armor calculations, perks, whatever) for 500. However, if I omit MaxDamage in...

    Windows Region file header incorrect?

    Okay, the region 1, -3 is in the desert. My friend and I spent the last night there shooting zombies for fun. No base or anything there. We probably did minor terrain damage due to missing a shot or shooting through a zombie, but nothing is built there. No idea why that one didn't save when we...
