📋 About This Mod
Overview
The Air Kerenzikov perk can be bought once Aerial Combat is bought, it no longer requires the Gundancer perk. This allows using Air Kerenzikov with pistols, tech weapons, smart guns, precision weapons and sniper rifles without having to buy a large number of AR/SMG-only perks. The Dash/Air Dash perk tree is still required to unlock the perk.
This allows for more build flexibility if you are playing say tech weapons or pistols only but still want to use Air Dash and Air Kerenzikov.
Note that there is nothing in the code to restrict Air Kerenzikov to ARs & SMGs alone - the perk works for all weapons that can trigger Kerenzikov. Which is why this mod exists as an attempt to make it more generally usable if you can already Air Dash and have full maneuverability in the air from Aerial Combat.
Air Kerenzikov sets your gravity to 5% of normal and sets a big deceleration effect so you both float a bit and reduce forward motion rapidly. Note that gravity is still active, so if you activate it while falling you will continue to fall but much more slowly than before. If you do so while still rising, you will continue to rise till you hit the apex and then start falling again.
Enhanced Air Kerenzikov does the same thing as this mod and a bit more besides (changes duration and gravity). I became aware of the mod only after releasing this one, but I want vanilla Air Kerenzikov outside of tweaking the perk requirements so will keep this up. Please do check out the other mod, it's changes are interesting and not overpowered.
