Mod Description

This mod alters the trigger (in code) for Full Auto, Sticky Bombs, Micro Missiles and Precision Bolt so that simply pressing Mouse 1 / left mouse button fires Auto Shotty, Stickies, Micro Missiles and Precision Bolts.

Now what happens if you press Mouse 2 / Right Mouse Button / Controller Equivalent button:

• For Sticky Bombs and Full Auto, it reverts to the normal shotgun fire. This is useful if you want to use the normal shotgun fire for any reason.
• For Micro Missiles, it closes the micro missile chamber and reverts back to normal heavy cannon fire.
• For Precision Bolt, it fires heavy cannon base fire while it's transitioning / zooming in. But after the zoom in is complete, it doesn't fire anything. So you have to make sure that you don't press Right Click by mistake. Please see the next section regarding steps on how to improve this behavior.
  

If you want to know, what I changed, go to:

\gameresources_patch1\generated\decls\weapon\weapon\player

\gameresources_patch2\generated\decls\weapon\weapon\player

and open the relevant decl file in Notepad. There is a parameter called triggerMode. The default value for this is - "WEAPONTRIGGERMODE_SECONDARY_HOLD_PRIMARY_PRESS". I changed it to - "WEAPONTRIGGERMODE_PRIMARY_PRESS".

If you're using a Full Auto Buff mod, you can use this information and modify the decl files yourself to have Full Auto as primary fire.

How to best use this mod ( for Precision Bolt )

Go to console and type:

bind mouse2 _altfire

On keyboard + mouse, this will allow you to use normal heavy cannon fire by holding Mouse 2 / Right Mouse Button and pressing Mouse 1 / Left Mouse Button. To make this permanent, there is a method available for Steam version. The steps for which are:

• Open Steam client.
• Find Doom Eternal in your library.
• Right click > “Properties”.
• On “GENERAL” tab click “SET LAUNCH OPTIONS”.
• Type in: +bind mouse2 _altfire
  

With this, Heavy Cannon and Shotgun weapon mods are much better. Their primary fire is the mod you have selected. Their secondary / alternate fire is their normal, unmodded fire which is available if you want it.

When uninstalling this mod

If you have used "bind mouse2 _altfire" in the console, that console command will not go away after you have uninstalled the mod. To fix this type: unbind mouse2 in the console. Then go to Settings -> Controls -> Customize Slayer Bindings and set "Weapon Mod" (in Combat and Movement) to Mouse 2 / Right Mouse Button.
