   Is this mod compatible with v 1.5?
   How did you managed to get names of parameters(e.g. mod_data.base_damage)?  Have you been able to look into game's code?

   While i dislike the so called "balance" mods, because everyone's having a different opinion, i wholeheartedly approve of this mod over here, because it makes sense.  Let's say, if 1 bullet from this certain weapon does 50 damage, then logically, a 3 round burst from the same weapon, the same bullets, should do triple the damage., that would be 150 and you're dead.
   
   THIS is balance.

   Here's a modified version of the script in this mod.
   - Reduced all damage by 25%
   - Reduced damage taken when unconscious
   - fixed the .0 showing in the image
   - Changed the damage numbers for burst auto and such a little bit more
       - I didn't give 100% damage back
       - This is because it changed gameplay too much
   
   
   
   I don't kn0ow how to make mods, but I'll leave this here for anyone interested.
   Hopefully it will come in handy for someone else!
   
   Just replace the contents of items.lua in the mod with this version and edit it as you please

   great mod, the way things should be. Second the idea to add more burst fire aim penalty

   Might be cool to add much greater accuracy penalties to burst and auto to offset a damage a bit.
   SO it becomes more like lottery, but still quite usable on point blank

   This is good, now burst/auto weapons are actually worth their salt and present proper danger.

   Thanks for posting it here, was hoping it would come over from steam workshop. Works great (definitely makes the game a lot harder.. which I like as it was already too easy on hardest difficulty.. but also makes my own automatics not feel so darn weak).
