Zulib Weapons Core
A framework mod for weapons and calibers. Mostly useless on itself, but it was done while communicating with the authors of both ToG and MoW.
Should be compatible with Ratos Overhaul.
Let me know if you find an error!
############### What it does ###############
– offers new calibers – see below for list
– offers 4 ammo types per caliber (usually Basci, HP, AP, Match; for 20x82mm Basic, Incendiary, SLAP, HE)
– offers crafting recipes for all ammos (only those for ammo actually used should show up)
– option to change vanilla weapon calibers to appropriate ones
– will add ammo and caliber categories to bobby rays if it finds weapons using those calibers
– will change LootDefs to hold apropriate ammo when it finds a no longer used caliber with a weapon that has no ammo in the loot def.
– should fix sector stash weapons and units weapons (including mercs) when loading a game up with a change to the caliber changes.
– offers weapon slot dependencies for modders. So with it MoW and ToG should work better together, as both mods changed the same table and it came to errors due to that.
############### What it doesn’t do ###############
Change the ammo squads carry with them. So if you’ve an AK74 using 7.62WP and enable vanilla weapon caliber switch, it won’t add some 5.45 ammo to your squads. Sorry, so far that has been too much hassle, especially in terms of finding a good logic to decide how ammo should be switched.
It’s also (at least not yet) including recipes and ammos that differ in costs/values really. I’ve yet to find the logic on how Haemimont priced the vanilla things and how to include something sensible when the mod is supposed to be blind what weapons will use those calibers.

############### Info for modders ###############
> The slot fix overwrites the UpdateVisualObj() function on each individual weapon class.
> When loot_tables are genrated it checks if the spawned ammo is actually used by any gun. If it isn’t it will try to check if there’s a weapon that uses the ammo and change it to that.
