About this mod
Adds + and ++ variants of Machine Guns, with bonuses to accuracy, crit. chance or rate of fire. Also a rare Rotary Machine Gun with much higher rate of fire.
- Permissions and credits
Adds + and ++ variants of Machine Guns to stores, to make them a bit more useful later in the game when you have upgraded versions of everything else. Also adds a rare Rotary Machine Gun which is bulkier, heavier and has five times the rate of fire.
Bonuses Available
extra accuracy: +2 or +4 Acc.
higher critical chance: +25% or +50% Crit. (this is on top of the default +50% crit. that all MGs get)
larger burst size: +2 or +4 Burst (more shots fired per attack)
where to buy them
Variant machineguns can be bought in Mining and Battlefield stores as well as the black market. Rotary MGs can be bought in Research stores.
Requirements
None. Works with the default mod loader.
(should also work with ModTek, though I haven't tested it)
Conflicts
None. Hopefully.
