Hey, thanks for making this! The new functions you added in the DLL plugin are extremely useful. They allowed me to add a "dropped mags" feature in WARS that causes the player to drop a physical magazine in the game world when they reload, containing any ammo that was still in the mag at the time, plus a variable number of empty casings, for crafting. (The casings being in there as an abstracted way to represent gathering them up after firing.) The player can recover the ammo if they can find the mag.
The new functions also let me do things like keep the amount of ammo loaded in a weapon consistent when switching fire modes, or to and from under-barrel launcher mode. Don't know what I'd do without them.
So WARS currently has Better Scrounger as a requirement. Thanks again for putting it out.
Hi thank you for making this mod, been using v1.4 for a while. Setting at 100% Base Chance, mod is working fine, but perhaps too good LoL. Even after decreasing down to 1% I'm still getting 100% ammo refund every reload, my ammo stash are piling up. Character max 10 Luck and Enable luck scaling OFF, previously was ON.
i'm using the 1.3.3 version and i'm not getting the ammo refund and i just start a new game. any help ? everything was working until i downloaded this last version.
I've tried testing the mod on a new save and my current save and it worked fine. When testing, try setting the chance to a 100% and make sure you have rank 4 of the scrounger perk.
? just tested in a new save and an ongoing one and didn't work it. i'm sending some screenshot of my console using the code sqv _SPOR_ScroungerReloadHandler
Hey, I think I've figured out what's wrong. I've reuploaded version 1.3.3 again so if you could delete your version and try this one, it should work now. Thank you for taking your time to help me.
Hey mate, really like the mod, but is there any chance you could implement the missing ammo types for the base scrounger perk? I can't use other scrounger fixes in addition to this one and having missing ammo types really puts a hamper on what you can collect.
I checked my mod with this mod and this one. Thankfully, they do not conflict with my mod because they edit levelled lists and not the perk itself. If you're using another one, just send it here and I'll check it for you.
Hey, I started having an issue with the mod. It was working fine for a while but out of the blue it doesn't refund ammo anymore, even when I set the proc chance to 100. I'm running F4SE on the correct versions and everything, and the only Scrounger related perk I'm running is the one you linked. I've tried disabling all other mods along with removing and re-applying rank 4 of Scrounger, but nothing seems to get it working again. I'm running version 1.21 of your mod.
I am sorry this is completely my fault. When I updated to 1.2, I forgot to copy some files and this didn't start the custom perk for players who picked the perk from the tree but it would work for players who already had the perk. Updating from 1.2 to 1.21 won't work if you're still in the same playthrough, you'll have to start a new game. You can still fix it manually by typing the following in the console in your current game:
Also, make sure to test multiple times, even at 100% chance sometimes the first reload won't refund ammo because initially I don't know how many bullets you have in your magazine when the game first starts or when you first draw a weapon (limitation of CK). When you perform your first reload, I can properly start tracking your ammo count. There are exceptions to this case but this is general how at works.
Oh woops my bad, I meant tell me what's written in the console when you type this command especially any text under --- Quest State --- and also scroll up a bit and tell me what pBaseChance is equal to. Make sure to set the chance too 100% in MCM before doing that.
Ok, I can see the problem. Not sure exactly how it happened. I know I said you shouldn't update but I think in your case if you update to 1.3.1, it should fix the issue.
It happens but the base chance in vanilla fallout 4 for scrounger to proc is 5%, that means that you didn't always get the free ammo. The issue that kept happening is that I kept manually reloading accidentally (it becomes a habit when you play fps games because I like to keep my magazine full) making the perk completely useless. Also with my mod, if you shoot one bullet, you will get one bullet instead of a full magazine.

Version 1.3.2 was working just fine.
