Looks much better right?

Wait..No, dont go! There is more! Introducing:


Undying Coursers


Its better than it sounds, honest..



Did Coursers leave you with blue bullets?
Wanted more play time with your Coursers frenemies?
Hoping that they were equipped with better than the standard issue rave guns?
Wish you can put more bullets into them (while they are still alive)?
Now your wishes can come true!

How? Why?

Courser now comes installed with a heart defibrillator that kicks their dead heart back into gear.
Experimental biomites suspends time and heals them as they are down! 
Animal tested. May cause side effects if overdosed.
Dont question the science, just go with it. This applies to this whole description and whatever follows.

With this mod coursers will get back up and keep fighting, even after you killed them! Or worst... If you are lucky/unlucky.
The higher their level, the more likely they will get back up. 
The higher their level, the more times they will get back up.
You can never be sure if the bullet that floored the courser is the last bullet that will floor that courser

Whats that? You want more?

Well! Thats not all, institute have also decided to shove Kellogg's combat memories into coursers brains! It's Greeeeat!
Even newly birthed coursers now slings six shooters like a an old hand!

And thus, from the deepest, darkest, unholy pits of Institute bio-labs comes:
.44 COURSER SPECIAL : BIO WEAPONS
Rave lights on the barrel! No more burning down the roof the roof when you raise the roof
Not shown, laser sights. Cosmetic only.
New barrels! New paint jobs! New glow sights! New useless decorative laser sights!*
These new barrels attaches onto conventional .44 revolvers.
Nanite-Microbe Cultures (NMCs) coats bullets with bio-toxin as they travel down the barrel.
For your own sanity, peeking down the barrel is not recommended.


Barrels comes in 4 neon flavors:

.44 Maeda SP 
+ High acid/poison damage
+ Acid emits lingering traces. Tag targets. (Recon effect)

.44 "Pike" Firefly
+ Fire damage
+ Fire spreads like crazy napalm over certain targets.
+ Targets have a chance of panicking

.44 Mongoose
+ Volatile, explosive rounds
+ High chance of mini stagger 

.44 Hydra
+ Cryo damage
+ High chance of slowing target

And for our lucky Coursers... A BONUS!
SUPPRESSORS!
+ Suppresses
- Looks silly on cylindrical barrels

* Each barrel comes equipped with a paint job, glow sights and laser sights.(Again, lasers are cosmetic only.)
* Slightly faster recovery and more recoil included.
* All barrels craftable and accessible after 1st courser main quest.
* Ammo and parts not included.


Are Coursers as tough as Deathclaws now?
Hah! No. 
Probably not.. Well.. maybe.

Whats that? More?
Need to hunt more coursers for gun parts and/or fun and rec?
Just like to kill coursers?
I know I did! Killed hundreds of them during testing


Presenting:
Rigged Coursers Relay/Transceiver
Craftable in 3 easy steps:
1. Finish the main quest to analyze brain chips.
2. Carve out a courser chip from any courser brain! Not from Z2 tho, you need his for your quest.
3. Build one at a chem station(under utility) near you!

Bring these to C.I.T Ruins and go on a courser fishing trip!


AND LETS NOT FORGET! THE BEST FEATURE! THE SUNGLASSES!



~ Compatibility, messy technical stuff and some unnecessary info ~

Weird Interaction with:
Dismemberment/headshot mods
- Turns out Coursers dont need heads! Headless coursers will still get up, eventually, if you dont kill it first. Snipers beware!
- Armless coursers will run around evading you
- Legless coursers will sit and shoot.


If you enjoy dismemberment mods, then that was probably good news. Otherwise..
I included an option to honor headshots so coursers wont get up again. If the head is blown clean off.
Might be a good idea for survivor players to help save some bullets.

I recommend disabling dismemberment for humans completely by checking out this mod: 
No Human Dismemberment
Headshots will still instakill the 1st time, but not after.
Some editing in xEdit maybe needed to adjust the stats. Or not, doesnt really affect much


Known Compatibility:
> Courser X-92 Power Suit
> CROSS_Courser Strigidae
> Better Coursers Pack V2
> .44 Silencer (load Undying Courser after this)
You may want the silencer if so you want silencers that looks better on smaller .44 barrels

Patch Available for:
> Courser Crushers
+ Extra combat moves
-/+ OP gun by Niero, There is a chance of either one to pop up on a courser
-/+ More FX

> The mercenary Pack
+ 20% chance for B-90 armor on coursers
+ I took the liberty of removing synth armor on coursers. Synth armor belongs nowhere but the trash.

> Better Locational Damage
? Forwards changes to .44 stats. Slower reload and higher damage
? Forwards changes to courser stats. Lower hp, higher resistances

*I personally use these mods, so thats why they are here. Dont be expecting more. Kbye.

Unknown Compatibility/Conflict:
Other mods that mod coursers
Other mods that mod .44. Load this AFTER them and you SHOULD be fine. This includes armorsmith/gunsmith mod/patches

More notes:
The gun barrels have pretty high requirement, since they are endgame. But if you can always pick one up.
The transceiver part is mostly unpolished. FX sucks, but it serves its function and have no known bugs.
Mod has easter egg. Mysterious easter egg. You may never see it. Or you will keep seeing it. Kill more coursers to see it.

Known Issues:
- Firefly's panic effect is a bit finicky. But thats how the engine works
- Free creation club skin removed for .44. Its a bonus really.
- Slight lack of testing between dismemberment mod and this mod. Personally im disabling dismemberment on humans. So no more support for that.
- Vats and Mysterious stranger may very rarely cause some issues? Not really..
- For whatever reason BLD messes with equipped weapon on death. You may find easter eggs containing odd items if you use BLD.


Unplanned Features For Improbable Futures
- Better fx for transceiver.
- Cooldown for transceiver.
- Minigame for transceiver.
- Stuff.


Possible FAQs / Why Cant I
1. Why cant I feed the NMCs in the barrels?
They feed on sunlight, gunpowder residue, kinetic energy and lots of love. Same thing you feed dogmeat really.

2. Why cant I store it in some dark corner?
You can, it will go just inactive/hibernate

3. Why cant I build the barrels?
Make sure you finished MQ205, Hunter/Hunted and have 2 Medic, 3 Chemist, 3 Gun Nut, 4 Science, a bunch of scraps including courser serum.(New item!)

4. Why cant I get if for cheap!
Well, farm free ones from coursers

5. Why cant I attach it on a legendary .44?
You can!

6. Why cant I feel OP?
Its not a mini minigun or micro missile launcher.

7. I dont like your courser mod. Why cant I just have guns?
Maybe someday. If enough request comes. You courser fearing N'wah.

8. Why cant I find the Xbox version
I dont know how to port it. Does Xbox have fomod?

9. Why.. cant I feel challenged..
Im sorry.. either coursers are too weak or you are too OP
Honestly if you can kill it easily the 1st time, you can kill it 10 times. But if the 1st time is kind of a challenge, then the rest might be more fun

10. Why can I use the laser sights?
Its tuned to emit light that only coursers can see at range
