dzn Extended Jamming

Description
Mod is not compatible with ACE for now
Mod adds weapon jamming to vanilla A3 or extends ACE jamming (from ACE Overheating) with additional logic.
Client-side, but when installed on the server - settings may be forced.

Version: 2.7.2

Features:
- Primary weapons may suffer 5 types of malfunction (feed failures, dud, extraction and ejection failures) and each requires correct user actions to be fixed.
- Unjamming from UI or "blind", using the hotkeys
- Jam chance and Malfunction frequency may be configured
- Specific guns may have specific jam chances and malfunction type frequency
- Compatible both with ACE and Vanilla

Usage:
- Bind hotkeys at (Options -> Controls -> Configure Addons)
- Check mod settings in the (Options -> Addon Options -> dzn Extended Jamming)
- When weapon got jammed - use Inspect Weapon keybind or (Self-interaction - Equipment - Inspect Weapon) action to open extended unjamming interface. Or use hotkeys for "blind" fixing
- Use "Subsonic magazines" settings to set up subsonic mags which should cause penalty; also you can use this setting to make high-capacity mags less reliable (just like IRL!)
- If you want to make scenario strictrly dependend from EJAM - place: Modules - Misc - 'Extended Jamming - Require Addon' in 3DEN

Note:
- Currently loaded magazine will be dropped to the ground on Magazine Detach action if there is no space in player's inventory
- Mod can override ACE unjamming logic if forced in the settings
- Weapon from different mods may behave differently (e.g. some guns doesn't hide detached magazine)
- For testing you can set jam chance to 100% at Addon Options

> I just get a box that says "Weapon functioning normally" and a gun that is perma-jammed
No idea. Need more details - what happened before problem occured? Did you respawn or used zeus before? Did you switched weapon by some script?

> What's worse, when I Zeus in a copy of the gun that jammed, THAT gun is jammed too.
Mod is not compatible with remote units (zeus controlled), so it will check jammed weapons against actual player unit.

I have to second what others have mentioned. I've not once been able to actually get the Weapon Menu to appear. I just get a box that says "Weapon functioning normally" and a gun that is perma-jammed. What's worse, when I Zeus in a copy of the gun that jammed, THAT gun is jammed too.

I downloaded the Raven Fix, but that yielded no results either.

ACE3 =) If you are using ACE, please try fixed version like this https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2920001073&searchtext=jamming

For some reason the Inspect Menu will not open. I suspect it could be a conflicting mod, do you have a list of incompatible mods?

Oh okay, I've figured it out. Apparently this is incompatable with Zeus, which is unfortunate to be honest.

Does this work for all guns? i have it set to a 10% jam rate (playing as rebels in myanmar, so realistic), and it seems to never jam. or is this an issue with it not being compat with Zeus?
