📋 About This Mod
Upgrade Weapons Unlocked
Unlocks non iconic weapon upgrades feature that was removed in 2. 0 patch. Supports Mod Settings and has configurable upgrade price for non Iconic weapons. Additionally, there is option to turn off non Iconic weapon upgrade from + to next quality tier.
Current WIP:
-
[]Add debug option to see if something is actually wrong and find culprits faster(so you can share a screenshot/log file here or in discord). Might finish, not sure though
[
]indrasut suggestion on limited upgrade logic as part of settings scheme based off in-game Perk investment. On pause[]Check compatibility with Pyromania Expanded. Seemed to work just fine but needs somebody really playing that to confirm
Reported issues that I could not reproduce:
-
[]Panam Romanced Enhanced. As reported in bug section, seems to have some sort of issue with PanamPrivacy.reds file but I am not sure what the issue is as for me(post Panzer) no issues have cropped up and looking at file itself there is nothing that would indicate conflicts of any sort
[]FreeFly (Noclip) as reported conflicting. Works just fine. Most likely issue is with different mod
Default item pricing that got fixes in 1. 0. 8 versions(is the same logic as is in vanilla unless you turn on price reduction or install SoftCraft):
-
[]from common to common Plus = 75 common materials;
[]common Plus to uncommon = 40 uncommon materials;
[]uncommon to uncommon Plus = 75 uncommon materials;
[]uncommon Plus to rare = 40 rare materials;
[]and so on until legendary, because:
[]legendary Plus to legendary Plus Plus = 200 legendary materials;
Option Upgrade Cost Reduction is only working when mod SoftCraft is not installed. Range is from 0 to 10. Setting 0 means lowering price to least possible number(1 material) and setting to 10 will get original vanilla number from explanation above. Setting to 5 will set it to half of original number.
