Description
UPDATED TO 1.6

UPDATED TO 1.5

UPDATED TO 1.4

UPDATED TO 1.3

Sprite is now drawn larger on the ground to prevent shrinkage of the gun due to the added bayonet.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Enables you to make the bolt-action rifle with a bayonet

Very simple, light-weight mod that combines shooting and stabbing, making a weapon that gives you the best of both worlds. It is deadly at range! It is deadly in close combat! So until Rimworld introduce backup weapons for closes combat, this is my solution!

FIX BAYONETS!

In terms of melee damage it will do slightly less than a steel spear of similar quality which I found fitting. (But way more than using the vanilla rifle in melee alone)


A big thanks to Ushanka!, from which I'm borrowing the stylish winter uniforms in the picture.


Can safely be added to save files. If you want to remove it, make sure you delete any work orders for this item on the machining table first.

Let me know if you run in to any trouble!

(I have no experience with CE so it's probably not compatible)

Possible future changes:
- Vanilla assault rifle with bayonet

Does it seem 1.5 works well, @Kni7es?

Works fine in 1.5 so far.

Don't be a coward, fix bayonets!

@Gotcha! Probably not going to tinker with that as it would be such a huge undertaking and beyond my skill level at this point. It's a cool idea, but it is not this mod. :)

@Syila
If I could make a suggestion. I don't know if this is possible, but it would be really cool if instead of the bolt action rifle having a bayonet, you could make an apparel/gear item that would increase melee damage. That way it could work not with just all the other vanilla guns, but with modded ones too.

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it more, there probably would need to be some sort of check to see if the pawn has a melee weapon equipped, so that you couldn't just cheese it with extra damage for nothing. A spear with a bayonet seems kind of redundant...

@Diamond Appendix - I've done initial prep work for updating all my mods to 1.3 but I'll have to test them with the actual release of 1.3 before uploading. Prob be within the week.

@Tweetus - I'm not going to modify content from different modders in this one.

@Medic Olkie - Not going to modify a different modders weapon but I might do the vanilla Assault rifle some day.

Will this get 1.3 support soon?

Thanks, think you might slap some more bayonets on weapons from VWE? It's shocking they don't have them on the musket.
