Concord - Broken Minigun on Rooftop

This is intended to be used on a brand new playthrough.

Description:

This is a very simple mod that just replaces the Minigun you get on the Museum of Freedom rooftop (Concord) for a Broken Minigun that has lower stats and is not upgradable. This is sort of a companion mod to Broken T-45 on Concord Museum Rooftop mod, I liked the idea of not getting Power Armor and a Minigun in top condition right at the beginning of the game so I decided to make this one to address the minigun specifically.

The story here is that Sturges told you to rip off the Minigun from the Vertibird and by doing so the weapon became damaged beyond repair. It will still work, but it will be less efficient than an undamaged Minigun, encouraging you to eventually swap it for a fully functional one. As of v1. 2 you'll get a notification when you rip it off telling you the weapon has received severe damage.

Broken Minigun stats:

• []Base damage: 5 (vanilla is 8)

  []Capacity: 300 rounds (vanilla is 500 rounds)

  []AP Cost: 35 (vanilla is 30)

  []Speed: 2. 0 (vanilla is 3. 0)

  []Reload Speed: 0. 6 (vanilla is 1. 0)

  []DPS: 67 (vanilla is 184, this value is calculated automatically by the game so I didn't change it directly)

  []Weight: 16 (vanilla is 18), something broke in weapon so now it's a bit lighter

  Additional changes:

  • []Weapon is no longer upgradable, can't switch paints/materials and no legendary slot either.

    []It will still benefit from Heavy Gunner perk if you have ranks in it.

    []ESP flagged as ESL (won't count towards your maximum ESP limit).

  A word on ammo:

  I initially intended to just reduce the amount of 5mm ammo you get but for some reason the changes I was making to the ammoCount variable would refuse to work. Eventually I gave up and decided to change the minigun for a crappier version, since the DPS is much lower now, the additional ammo you get kind of makes sense now as you will need it for the weapon to perform closer to a fully operational Minigun.

  Compatibility:

  This mod doesn't change quests or uses scripts, it just edits the activator for the Min
