[WORKING/FIXED DL] Sheepy’s Grenade Launcher
Sheepy’s Grenade Launcher by Sheepy ( <3 ).
"Pump Action Grenade Launcher v0.9"
Author: Sheepy
Original Description:
" This mod give you a pump action grenade launcher with 3 round magazine, like the China Lake grenade launcher prototyped for Navy SEALs in 1968.
It is intended to be good at destroying cover, but can also be used to blast damned aliens.
In order to reuse AK47 sprite, it looks a bit like that rifle, but I think it is a better match and more recognisable than recreating a semi-auto launcher. " […]
—///— Sorry guys, it will actually install via the mod manager without giving an error now.

" The title should say it all. Among the Xenonauts 2 ideas is replacing rockets with grenade launcher.
Thanks to the modding community (cough), you can already try out that idea in the original Xenonauts! " […]

" Stats:
Weight 5kg, Range 20, Reload 25%, Recoil 60, Reaction 0.5, Suppression 40 in 2.5 radius
Snap 40% TU Acc 95
Normal 60% TU Acc 125
Damage is around 2/3 that of rocket and hand grenade. Takes 2+ hits to destroy most covers. May have to raise it and rocket launcher together?
Note that because of direct fire, the hit rate is affected by cover, unlike thrown grenade but like the intended X-2 grenade launcher.
The files and arts including historical versions can be found on {GitHub.} You may use them freely provided that a credit is noted. " […]

Previous release(0.8) is ‘No X:CE’ compatible.
" Version 0.9
This version should fix the predator spirit, and comes with a good selection of 40mm grenades.
Due to system limitation, the grenade launcher will be armed with rocket by default, and can be armed with rockets in base.
Fortunately, the soldiers are smart enough to replace any wrong loadouts with normal 40mm grenades, so it won’t break the game. " […]
My note: This version (0.9) is X:CE compatible only.
A vanilla compatible version is available at the Github link, should be under a old release.
In the first link is the mod Authors original post and a version for mid-campaign games (you can’t add it to a currently running campaign with this version because it’s not an unlockable tech with a research, it’s a default tech).
