Main Changes:

1.) Changes to the weapon modifications.

> Original Receiver mods have been phased out in favor of the new internal modifications.

> Receivers are now split into Receiver, Frame, Trigger, and Damage mods.

- Receivers: divided into standard and . 45 +P receivers. . 45 +P receivers have higher damage, and armor penetration, but cannot equip suppressors.

- Frames: divided into heavy, standard, and light. Heavier the receiver, the more damage it deals and the less viable it is for VATS use.

- Trigger: divided into standard, AP, hair trigger, and calibrated. With a larger bonus than other weapon mod types, trigger mods help your gun specialize in different things, from armor piercing to VATS use.

- Damage: modifies damage, meant for progression.

2.) Multiplicative Perk-Based damage bonuses.

Damage increases are handled by perks, which means damage increases by mods and legendary effects now stack multiplicatively. Two-Shot now actually doubles damage!

3.) Optional tweaks.

The optional mod in the download section modifies the holographic sights in the mod to be 1x zoom.

Notes on armor penetration:

Since I'm sure the majority of the playerbase doesn't know how armor penetration works, I will be briefly explaining how damage resistance and armor penetration works, and the problem with that.

DR reduces damage by the following formula:

Damage Coefficient: min( 0. 99, ( x 0. 15 / )^0. 365 )

This means that the smaller of the two (either 0. 99 or ( x 0. 15 / )^0. 365) is multiplied to the Weapon Damage, and that is the real damage dealt.

2.) Armor Penetration

The armor penetration stat reduces the DR of the enemy by the % amount of it. Due to how the DR formula works, armor penetration stops having any effect on damage if the damage is ~7x the DR stat.

3.) The Problem

The problem with DR and armor penetration working like it does is twofold. First, thanks to how the DR formula works, armor pen is essentially a static damage increase unless DR is very small compared to the damage. This means that armor penetration doesn't work better on more armored enemies, as long as damage is ~6x the DR. Secondly, Weap
