Another Generic Weapon Modpack (ALPHA)

Description
My first mod for starbound.

I'm new to this whole modding shenanigans so please bear with me. This is something we've been working on for the past week, to be totally honest we could have waited and upload a more polished version but due to this thing called "real life", i just thought to myself: "Aight, screw it, i'll just upload the files and call it alpha and then add more stuff to it later".

So, anyways, as for the pack itself, it currently features 14 new weapons with custom sprites and custom animations (immersive recoil and such):

I will never make the melee weapons amiable

  • Lever-action Rifle
  • Ranger Shotgun
  • Snubby Revolver
  • Glok-40 Energy Pistol
  • Survival Knife
  • Loose Cannon
  • Fire and Forget
  • Demon Hanzō
  • Broken Claymore
  • Medic Pistol (disclaimer, due to how enemy types are bugged, this pistol will heal both allies and enemies, so aim before you shoot)
  • HEAV SMG
  • HEAV Shotgun
  • HEAV Compact
  • HEAV Pistol

You can get these from a lvl 2 anvil/treasured trophies. Or if you're too lazy you can just use /spawnitem and spawn these in:
  • leveractionrifle
  • horselimp
  • snubby
  • glok
  • darkcutter
  • zerecycler
  • moretard
  • nipponsteel
  • duesvultz
  • medic
  • vector
  • knockback
  • knockback_sawnedoff
  • usp

Most of these can be upgraded at the weapon upgrade anvil.

It's alpha so there might be bugs and stuff, also balancing issues but it's not a priority right now. Hopefully these are somewhat entertaining to use.

I will add more weapons and polish the pack more with custom particles and custom sounds once i find spare time and when i level up my code-fu :/

I'll also be taking suggestions as to what weapons will we be adding next, but please keep in mind that I'm a noob at modding so don't go crazy with the suggestions lol.

Note: Animating for starbound is very tedious and limited(maybe it's because i'm a lazy asshat whose code-fu is that of a beginner) so that's why it's taking forever to add new weapons :/

Upcoming weapons:
  • Gun Blade (maybe)
  • Maglev
  • Hidden Blade
  • Custom armors
To-do list:
  • Get better at code-fu
  • Tweak the particle effects
  • Get better at code-fu

Hi! Can i get a permission to use some .lua scripts from this mod? Especially i need the "increasing rate of fire" script.

what's making you lunge forward and stay airborne when you melee combo in the "polishing old mods" video?

In the beginning, I found this mod by pure chance and I loved it because of the survival knife, because it behaved like a "fist weapon" which allowed me to do some combos with other weapons of the same type (such as the claw or the fist star) were spectacular, but currently I installed it again, I was surprised that the weapon has been updated and now works more like a dagger with a combo, yes, it allows up to 6 hits, but it has lost that charm of power combined with other weapons, which is a shame.

I can't craft demon hanzo and broken claymore on my replicator. Any ideas?
Reebs  [author] Nov 12, 2019 @ 5:37pm 
I'd rather move on from this and release other things tbh.
