Hi, great mod, thank you, this whole timing mechanic is terrible.
Would it be possible to add optional file that also reduce Bolt bonus damage? For example, from +30% to +15%? As a balance when its now so easy to cast Bolt?
What do you think about replacing the Lightning Storm perk with this effect? I always thought Lightning Storm was the worst or at least most frustrating Tech weapon perk since it asks you to adapt to several additional bolt timings. That adds unnecessary inconsistency, especially if you're already juggling different bolt timings from effects like Sandevistan, Kerenzikov, Deep Breath, etc. And the perk makes hitting consistent bolts with guns like the Burya even more difficult than it already is. It'd be awesome if Lightning Storm let you fire bolts at full charge instead of its current effect.
That would make the original internal clock perk useless.
Lightning storm pretty is useful for tech pistols like Lizzie combined with the Hold to Shoot all Guns mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/14065
Why would it become useless? The original Internal Clock perk affects well-timed bolt shots while your mod enables fully-charged bolt shots, which are two different things that would both remain useful in different situations. You wouldn't fully charge and hold your shots if you were trying to maximize dps vs a boss, for example - you'd spam bolt shots as fast as you could, charging each bolt as little as possible. I'm not saying the original Internal Clock is the most useful perk in the first place, but whatever usefulness it has wouldn't go away with the change I'm talking about.
There is a nice mod called "Tech Weapons Charge Timings (Instant Bolts or Max Charge Bolts or Easy or Very Fast)" which cover most aspect about Bolt charging but theoretically this mod have a better sollution for Max Charge Bolt.
Entirely possible i'm just getting something wrong, but this seems to give the In Charge perk the same functionality - that is, you can hold your charge as long as you want, and on release the shot will be a bolt shot, rendering the Internal Clock perk useless once you have it. Anyone else?
(I think it's ideal that this occurs, but only if you have both perks IMO)

EDIT: Never mind, I figured it out

Additionally, I took a look at the max charge implementation, and that mod uses a different buff than the base game, so it's not compatible with Senkoh LX Bolt Fix or Immersive Weapons - Hold To Shoot All Guns
