Momentum is a simple formula, Mass X Velocity. That’s how damage is calculated with this mod. Guns don’t cause damage, the rounds do.
Ballistic Features:
- Each ammo has it’s own damage value, the bigger and faster the round is, the more damage it does
- Automatics are much more deadly and realistic now
- Minigun/Gatling laser weight has been increased to add balance for the damage output
- Noise detection levels have been altered to be more realistic. Without silencers, larger guns will be louder.
- Stagger levels have been altered. Shotguns have the biggest stagger effect, rifles next, automatics and revolvers, followed by small pistols
Laser Features:
- Fusion cells have been unchanged
- Laser weapon damage output have been increased per weapon type instead. Muskets have the highest damage per shot, followed by rifles and then pistols. Automatics have the highest damage per second
- Laser weapons now have zero recoil, however they still maintain a cone of fire, it has been drastically reduced
Specialty Weapons:
- Alien, Plasma, Gamma, Gauss, and Railway guns have been balanced to match damage more closely. For some, they are more powerful.
Companions/Enemies:
- Changes have been applied to all weapons across the board, including turrets. This means some enemies hit harder, some don’t.
Compatibility:
Perks and attachments that edit weapon damage, will no long function properly. I plan to adjust the attachments in future updates, and eventually perks. In the meantime, I recommend using a mod to replace the damage perks with accuracy improvements instead.
WARNING: Mods editing vanilla weapons have the tendency to break weapon replacers and will require a future patch. I already have a list going, I just need time to make them.
Mods Requiring a Patch:
Any mod adding weapons or custom ammo
Any weapon replacers
Any mod adding attachments that alter damage
