Faster Bullet Projectiles

***Updated for 5.0 Patch***
- Now includes projectiles from new units, Including Dwarf Engineer, Landship crew, Hochland Rifles, etc.
- FIXED issues with high knockback. Lowered mass of all projectiles appropriately, both from new units and the old ones.


Doubles the muzzle velocity (projectile speed) of all gun bullet projectiles in the game.

Does not include any artillery units. Does not include any bow / crossbow unit.

The intention of this mod is to make the guns feel more like actual guns. This is a similar kind of speed on bullets that would have been seen in previous CA titles, such as Shogun 2.
This mod changes absolutely nothing else other than doubling bullet speed, so should not affect game balance too much. I do not foresee any compatibility issues with any other mods, as this only changes two variables on certain units, no new animations/textures/scripts etc have been added.

The units affected by this mod are basically every unit which uses the “musket” category of weapon, with some exceptions. This is any firearm which fires once and then is reloaded. This even includes units which ride other units. Blowpipe weapons also technically fit into this category. Special abilities which summon projectiles should work.

Some examples of affected units:

- Handgunners
- Thunderers
- Streltsi
- Warplock Jezzails
- Rotting Promethean Gunnery Mod
- Chameleon Skinks
- Sky-junk
- Chaos Dwarf Blunderbuss

etc.

There are some units which do fall under the “musket” category but are not included in this mod as they do not exactly fire one bullet or reload in the traditional sense.

For Example:

- Ratling Gunners (bullets are fast enough anyway)
- Irondrakes
- Warpfire Throwers

etc.

This mod was created as any other mod which changes projectile speeds also seems to change lots of other values, such as arcs, damage, reload time, etc, which is fine if that is what you want, however if you just want to change the FEEL of the guns rather than game balancing, something simple like this would be better.

Best paired with “Guns, Smoke & Spectacle mod” and the “Reloading Animations” mod to fully complete the feel of making guns feel like real guns.
