////////////// Features //////////////
This mod adds a new craftable weapon to the game, the Gecko Flamer.
Obtaining
It can be crafted from 10 Fire Gecko Hides, 5 Gecko Meat, and 1 Fire Gecko Egg once your survival skill is 75. Don't ask how that works, it just does...
Stats
The Gecko Flamer uses its own ammo called Gecko Breath, and it regenerates it at a rate of 2 units a second, up to a max of 30, as long as the Gecko is equipped. It has a fire rate of 8 flames per second, so it will run out of breath quite quickly. It makes up for this by doing 23 damage per hit, in addition to the normal fire damage over time. The Gecko is worth 2500 caps, weighs 17 pounds so it has a strength requirement of 8, and it uses the survival skill (100 required) to determine its accuracy, because the Gecko is doing all the work you just have to aim the thing. And finally it can be repaired with any of the parts used to make it.
Misc
The Gecko Flamer has been added to all the appropriate perk lists via script, so there should be no conflicts.
