Weapon Strength Requirements - Scripted - FNV(New Vegas) Style

INTRODUCTION

I love New Vegas and always felt that Fallout 4 lacked many RPG elements that it sorely needed.

Polyman made a mod called Weapon Requirements that specifically adds all weapons in the game into formlists to decide the strength requirements, but it required all DLCs and had to have patches for new weapons added by other mods.

I have instead based the strength requirement on the ammo the weapon uses, the weight of the weapon, the type of weapon, whether it is automatic, whether it is bolt-action, whether it is melee or ballistic, explosive, is considered heavy etc.

I based the logic of the script on the New Vegas weapons' strength requirements.

REQUIREMENTS

Base game and F4SE, no DLCs required.

MCM optional

USAGE INFO

Just install. Everything is automatic, DLCs and specific compatible mods are automatically accounted for.

INTERACTION

When you equip a weapon, reload a weapon, exit the Level Up Menu, or enter/exit a power armor and you DON'T meet the calculated strength requirement, you will receive a message reflecting that and your aim/recoil/weapon draw etc will all be severely negatively affected.

If you meet the requirement you won't see such a message.

1. 01

NEW: Crouching will reduce the hold breath penalty and scope sway penalty by half.

NEW: Recoil compensating stocks will reduce the STR requirement of a weapon(1 by default, configurable).

NEW: MCM menu added for user controls.

NEW: Weapon Penalties are now shown in the Effects Tab of the Pipboy, only when affected by them and only for the type of weapon you're affected by.

Any very popular mod that adds new ammos, as I have accounted for the top mods that do so.
