Installation:
Regular installation.
Don't forget to endorse if you like the mod.
Limitations:
I have little interest in trying to ensure that NPCs use ammo, though they can show up in their inventories. I just want a simple solution to see variants for loot more often.
Permissions:
Do whatever.
Support:

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (192k) shows it's a go-to for loot variety.
- Simple concept: more ammo types in loot, no bloat.
- Still updated as of Dec 2023, so it's not abandoned.
⚠️ Cons
- Description is bare-bones—no details on which ammo variants or how they're balanced.
- Scriptrunner mods can conflict with other loot overhaul mods; no compatibility notes.
For Fallout 4 players who want more ammo diversity without overhauling the whole game. If you're tired of seeing the same old rounds everywhere, this adds a bit of spice. Skip if you prefer curated loot systems or want detailed documentation.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a scriptrunner, make sure you have the Script Extender (F4SE) installed and launch the game through it.
- Load order matters—place it after other loot mods to ensure your changes take effect.
- Check the mod page for any patches if you use popular loot overhauls like Loot Logic and Reduction.
