Western Sahara CBA Compatibility Patch

Description
Have you ever wanted to put that nice CUP Meprolight sight on Western Sahara Velko R4 for maximum IDF experience? Or maybe mount BW Mod fancy sights on the XMS to feel like Bundeswehr Soldat of 22nd century?

NOW YOU CAN!

What this mod does?

This mod makes weapons from Western Sahara cDLC fully compatible with CBA Joint Rails, Joint Muzzles and Joint Magazines systems. While previously you could use WS accessories on CBA-compatible guns (like WS RDS sight on CUP M4), it was impossible to make it the other way, and use accessories from other mods on WS weapons. With this mod you can finally use those accessories on WS guns, and even share magazines between guns of the same type from WS and other mods (for example WS SLR and CUP FN FAL).

Affected Western Sahara weapons include Galat rifle, all Velko variants, all SLR variants, XMS family of weapons, GLX standalone grenade launcher, SA-77 variants and AA40 select-fire shotgun.

Known issues:
- none.

Addon 'lxws_cba_compat' requires addon 'Weapons_F_ixWS'

Western Sahara updated their mod to version 1.1.3., which adds new SLR Para rifle. Hence this mod now adds CBA JR and JAM compatibility for this gun too!

Maybe.

In October 2023 update for CBA, CBA team decided to introduce at least partial compat for cDLCs on their own: JAM magwell compatibility patch (no Joint Rails). However for Western Sahara, they are missing some guns (Galil/Velko and AA-12/AA40), and some of their decisions are weird. For example CBA allows loading of double drums into XMS bullpup, and it's impossible to load single GLX 40mm WS grenades into single-shot launchers like M203.

As it stands right now, in regards to magazines, my CBA-WS compat is a bit at odds with CBA own WS compat. So before doing anything with new cDLC, I'd prefer to see what CBA guys do themselves, especially since I'm pretty sure there ain't CBA magwell classes for Desert Eagle or ASh-12/ShAK yet. But this will probably take months for CBA team to do in their pipeline/work schedule.

So I guess I could just do a Joint Rails compat (accessories only, no JAM magazine compatibility) for the new cDLC. I'm not sure yet.

any plans for the new CDLC?

@krzychuzokecia Thanks a lot for the fix :)
And additional thanks for being as quick and responsive!

Also I didn't notice as much that their accessories were already compatible, but yes, you are 100% right, they did that by themselves already.

And also yes, BI has so far indeed missed out on integrating a joint rail feature and we are probably never going to see that in the game, but I hope they have an eye out for that in their next title! Can't speak for Reforger since I haven't tried it yet.

@Moloti: yes, same with WS Velko and CUP Galil. Mags/proxies are in different position, happens quite often with guns made by different authors.

I think there's some weirdness with the Western Sahara SLR magazines on the CUP FAL and vice versa
