Changelogs
Version 1.1
The ability to build Fortified Laser Musket must now be unlocked after purchasing a schematic for it from Ronnie Shaw after the Minutemen quest "Old Guns" has been completed. It costs 2400 caps by default.
Two unique end-game versions of the Fortified Laser Musket have been added. They will automatically appear in the Chemistry Station workbench under Utility after the quest "The Nuclear Option" is taken, with the Minutemen chosen as the main faction. Each fires a semi-unique blue laser beam instead of the vanilla red one. I justified this by assuming that the Minutemen were able to recover some of technology from the Institute after invading it.
"The Last Ride" fires an extremely powerful single-shot beam with a single crank. It has a base damage of 108, putting it on par with the Gauss Rifle, except it uses fusion cells instead of 2mm ECs. It also has a unique 10x scope function which has very low scope sway, and highlights living targets.
"The Last Stand" is a unique version of the in-game unique automatic laser musket that Sturges gives you at the end of the Minutemen's conclusion to the "The Nuclear Option". It has a low range and massive recoil, but fires an automatic beam from an infinite ammo source. The Last Stand benefits from the Automatic Laser Musket Redone - Framework at Fallout 4 Nexus - Mods and community (nexusmods.com) mod, which dramatically increases the firerate of the automatic receiver.
The Automatic Receiver has been added as a general modification to the vanilla laser musket once "The Nuclear Option" is completed following the Minutemen questline, allowing the player to place it on any existing or new vanilla laser muskets. This too benefits from the Automatic Laser Musket Redone Framework listed above.
Ronnie and Preston should now both carry their own models of the Fortified Laser Musket. Occasionally I get bugs where Preston's doesn't show up properly; I'm still investigating this, and will upload a hard fix as soon as I figure out what the problem is.
