📋 About This Mod
Confirmed working for 3. 0 (The invisible crossbow bolt bug on the compound crossbow is still there)
The compound crossbow invisible bolt bug is a bug with 7 Days not this mod
Update 2. 1 - v1. 0 Stable release with updated code that should make this mod work with any mod that adds weapons. Should work with overhauls like Darkness Falls too.
Update 2. 0 - Updated for 1. 0 Experimental
Update 1. 1 - Code updated for A21. 2 b37. No more yellow text! :)
- Added alternate version for use with Darkness Falls
Have you ever been sneaking along and spotted a zombie, pull out your rifle, line up your shot, pull the trigger... then got a click and have to reload because you forgot last time? Me too. All the time lol
That specific problem would be avoided if TFP would just make certain weapons auto-reload, but since they haven't, you can with this mod!
Built on top of the groundwork already laid out by Wolfbain5 in their Crossbow auto reload mod, I have modified it to also include:
The Iron and Compound Crossbow (already included from Wolfbain5's mod)
The Pipe Shotgun
The Pipe Rifle
The Hunting Rifle
and The Rocket Launcher
A minor quality of life improvement, but it makes a world of difference for my friends and I. Maybe it will for you too!
Auto Reloading Weapons is a quality-of-life mod for 7 Days to Die that makes several weapons automatically reload after firing, including crossbows, pipe weapons, the hunting rifle, and the rocket launcher. It is compatible with mods that add weapons and overhauls like Darkness Falls, with a stable v1.0 release.
