IrRegular's Large Bore Rifles

Description
Adds several rifles over 14.5mm in bore, in both industrial and spacer tech levels, and the research projects neccesary to unlock them.

Industrial (Precision rifling, Plasteel tooling):
- Anzio 20mm
"Absurdly large and heavy ancient bolt-action anti-materiel rifle. Its 20x102mm autocannon shells combined with a high-magnification scope makes it quite effective at extreme ranges."

- Anzio 14.5mm
"A large and heavy ancient bolt-action anti-materiel rifle. Its "smaller" 14.5x114mm anti-tank rounds make it slightly lighter and more wieldy than its 20mm counterpart, while still providing excellent stopping power and ranged capability."

- Anzio 20mm Modernized
"Absurdly large and heavy ancient bolt-action anti-materiel rifle made lighter and slimmer by the replacement of its pressure bearing components with plasteel. Its 20x102mm autocannon shells combined with a high-magnification scope makes it quite effective at extreme ranges. The cut weight makes it almost practical, but also makes the recoil much worse. Ice packs recommended after use."

- Anzio 14.5mm Modernized
"A large and heavy ancient bolt-action anti-materiel rifle made lighter and slimmer by the replacement of its pressure bearing components with plasteel. Its "smaller" 14.5x114mm anti-tank rounds make it slightly lighter and more wieldy than its 20mm counterpart, while still providing excellent stopping power and ranged capability. The cut weight means it can actually start competing with smaller .50 BMG anti-materiel rifles, but the recoil is worse."

Spacer (Spacer ballistics):
- Rimworlder 20mm
"An enormous bolt-action "scout rifle" carried by spacer explorers in mechanoid infested rimworlds. High tech plasteel-based alloys lets it contain the immense forces from firing its 20x102mm autocannon shells while remaining relatively lightweight, it can fold down into a smaller package for transport, and it features an ion charged muzzle brake so it can be fired from the shoulder without knocking the user clean off their feet. Designed for faster target acquisition at the expense of extreme range capability."

- Rimworlder 14.5mm
"A huge bolt-action "scout rifle" carried by spacer explorers in insectoid infested rimworlds. High tech plasteel-based alloys lets it contain the powerful forces from firing its 14.5x114mm cartridge while remaining relatively lightweight, it can fold down into a smaller package for transport, and it features an ion charged muzzle brake so it can be fired from the shoulder without potentially losing footing. Designed for faster target acquisition at the expense of extreme range capability. it's been lightened and its recoil dampened so much compared to other rifles in the same caliber that it can almost be used as an infantry rifle."

- Deathworlder 40mm
"A gun too large to be called anything but a cannon. Liberal use of high tech plasteel-based alloys and composites are the only reason that this thing can even be lifted, and it features a small Johnson-Tanaka drive to stop the recoil from its 40x311mmR cannon shells from tearing your shoulder loose."

all sprites were kitbashed from CE guns

Would absolutely love a non-CE version of the mod! I really wanna punch beach ball sized holes in my enemies!

the spacer rifles are intended to be a partial compromise on long range for close range firepower.

Is there a particular reason the industrial rifles have better sight efficiency at higher quality than the spacer rifles? I haven't done the math yet so I'm not sure how much it affects accuracy, but I was just curious. An excellent Anzio has like 500% sight efficiency while the Rimworlder at legendary quality only has 280%

Just put a tag of 1.5 and call it a day.

Make them 30% bigger :D

Don't get me wrong, it gets the job done with blunt damage alone, I just want a universal pink mist machine😭

use AP-I or something the single shot 40mm is already moderately OP and ridiculous
