Install with Unity Mod Manager. Allows user to edit stats of all rifles and cannons. Also available is a Cheat Mod. Read the Readme for instructions.

Edit: The mod is no longer working on the latest release of the game. Please do not use until it is updated.

any mod for better ships in Shops maybe buy a 3rd rate or bellona?

what a mod?

Tested it out, and the cannon mods seems to work pretty well as far as I can see. Thanks for sharing!

[Mako]

Glad to hear it. Let me know if you encounter any bugs. I didn't test the Cannon stuff too much, only the rifles.

Regarding ships: Its possible, but not as easy as the cannon/rifle stuff because of the way its coded. May do it in the future.

okay

you can edit cannon weights. make them weigh 1 and you can make your hull/planking thicker without losing firepower/crew.

This is great. Is there a way to mod the way the shot spread pattern works, and the way penetration works in regards to angling?

[cruiser]

Right now it takes more than 3 times as long to kill a ship that's pointing towards you than to kill a ship parallel to you, due to shots missing and bouncing off.
This is not conducive to good gameplay, so I'd like to change the spread pattern so that less shots miss when shooting at a perpendicular ship, and less shots bounce off the sides when shooting at a perpendicular ship (they should hit the front/back panel instead and penetrate it).

change vertical and horizontal spread to 0.5 or lower for much better grouping. Change "mass" to higher numbers to increase penetration.

Yeah i believe you would want to change the ballistics, but i haven't tested any of it myself.

Thank you. I'm not looking to increase penetration as a whole. I'm just looking to increase penetrate at an acute angle only, or to reduce the chance of shots hitting the sides when shooting at the front/back of the ship (basically changing the shape of the "armor box" of a ship)

Reducing horizontal spread and increasing vertical spread to compensate seems to be a great (and realistic) way to start though, thanks.

Just FYI, please update to v1.2 of equipment mod. Fixed a bug which can cause your game to not load.

[AdmiralKenobi]

Appreciate the update. How dependent is the mod on the game version, though? It seemed to work fine so far for me, despite the game updating multiple times.

[Mako]

I'd expect it to be pretty safe. Most of that code has been same since UG

[Fail_Knight]

Does the stat export for naval guns include their penetration fallof rate or something similar?
