How to make a weapon change calibers via weapons-mods?

[BobbyLee298]

Ive spent hours trying to do this already on my own, i figured id ask the more experience modders out their for help.

Im trying to make guns change their calibers by making a attachment that installs into the guns mod slot (such as a receiver)

Thank fellas!

You need to create a new item mod in the item_modifiers.XLM, make sure you have a recipe for it or add it to the loot lists too. You may need an item for it as well. Then under it's effects you should be able to set the ammo type by making the modifiers property be the specified ammo type. I can elaborate more once I'm back home tomorrow.

Thats whats i tryed to do with "Magazine_items" and have that property set to a different ammo type... but for the gun in-game, the attachment doesn't change anything

Hmm... I'll do some testing and see what I can find.
