Shotgun Speed Boost

Description
This time, it's a mod to boost shotgun. Features of this mod can give T1 shotguns faster fire rate, & faster reload speed on all shotguns. As this is also a simple mod, there are only 6 feature in "shotgun speed boost.txt" cfg file:
- Shotgun Chrome Fire Rate: This will increase shotgun chrome fire rate. Max value is 100. Max value 100= faster fire rate than auto shotgun.
- Pump Shotgun Fire Rate: This will increase pumpshotgun fire rate. Max value is 100. Max value 100= faster fire rate than auto shotgun.
- Shotgun Chrome Reload Speed: This will increase shotgun chrome reload speed. Max value is 100. Max value 100= less than 1 second for full reload.
- Pump Shotgun Reload Speed: This will increase pumpshotgun reload speed. Max value is 100. Max value 100= less than 1 second for full reload.
- Auto Shotgun Reload Speed: This will increase autoshotgun reload speed. Max value is 100. Max value 100= less than 1 second for full reload.
- Shotgun Spas Reload Speed: This will increase shotgun spas reload speed. Max value is 100. Max value 100= less than 1 second for full reload.

Notes:
- On the preview video that I'll upload later, I maxed value of all features.
- A known bug: You'll get slightly more ammo clip when using reload speed feature.
- If the mod conflicts with other mods (red texts on addon menu), try it first, as this mod should still be able to work together with the conflicting mods. For example, this mod conflicts with my "CS Sniper Special Buff", but both can still work perfectly without a bug.

i sort of feel like thats the case too with it being hardcoded into the engine and the only chance anyone'd be able to change it at all is an in to source code which is something valve themselves surely will be lenient on and wait which version of merciless bots? the complete one i bet beause i dont remember seeing the txt in the simple version, sure i'll see it out for myself

@something something house , Scar is a special case as its burst fire is hardcoded. I ever tested it before on my "Merciless Bots" mod (you can find "weapon damage boost.txt" in the "Merciless Bots" cfg folder that contains features to increase fire rate, & this shotgun mod was part of it), & there were some bug reports from people back then that somehow fire rate boost didn't work on scar only. You can also give a try, but my guess is that the scar problem is because the fire rate is already fast enough so the change on fire rate doesn't show up. & probably if the trick of the pause after shooting burst fire can be found out, probably it won't be impossible to make scar full auto.

can you do the same thing for the Scar? give it a speed boost perhaps full auto? the burst firing is cool and all and getting mods to slow the firing rate down to achieve full auto is getting a little too old

Okay cool

@Doomgamer9000 , actually all you mentioned are already available as some optional features on "Merciless Survivor Bots". I just haven't extracted any of them as standalone mods like this one yet. Probably later I'll extract the damage buff & more throwables as standalone mods.

I love this mod!! Could you make the same with other weapons such as m60 and throwables like giving us features to customize how many throwables we can have and damage buff?

actually great addon, its nice to know that I get to at least look forward to using T1 shotguns instead of throwing them off the moment the Director spawns in a T2 weapon

@gameluna , I hope that you can solve the problem soon. Alternatively you can try to make a request to people on alliedmods to port this mod as a plugin. It should be very easy to port, as I only used few netprops functions & my scripts are easy enough to learn & understand (I don't like complicated things so I also made scripts as simple as possible).

& thanks for your supports for my mods :steamhappy: . I appreciate it.
