It's there an easy way to increase weapon range universally?
« on: May 04, 2023, 07:46:23 AM »
I'd like to know if there's a multiplier I can apply to avoid editing every entry in the weapon table.

The best way I can think of is make a small plugin that does it on application load. Whether that's "easy" depends on your familiarity with coding though.

Otherwise, if you're editing with excel and don't have a lot of mods, the "paste special" command on excel can make editing the weapon table pretty painless.

Combat plugin that applies range mods to every ship.

I'm not familiar with coding unfortunately, I suppose I'll have to go about it by changing the tables. I might start by simply normalizing the ITU bonus across all ship classes and see how that goes. Thanks!

I had a hull mod made for that:

It Increases the ROF, Damage, Ammo, and Range
