[Og] Real Charged Shots

What is charge weapon?

"Build weapons which fire pulse-charged munitions for extra damage."
"Pulse-charge technology charges each shot with unstable energy as it leaves the barrel. Released on impact, the charged energy greatly increases the damage done "

It sounds powerful, doesn't it? But in actual use, you will find out what is called false advertising. The so-called "unstable energy" cannot cause extra damage, and I don't know where the "greatly increases" is coming from. This mod enhances charge weapons to make them more in line with the text description.

• All charge weapons will produce electric arcs due to the release of "unstable energy" when hitting targets, resulting in additional burns (and temporary stun effects, for some weapons). Electric arcs can penetrate shield belts, but cannot penetrate shield backpacks or other shields which have a protection radius.
  
• Sniper-type weapons (charge lance, charge sniper rifle added by vanilla weapons expanded) also cause a large amount of EMP damage (40/30, 20s/15s) in addition and can control mechs and break shield belts, but have no effect on shield backpacks or other shields which have a protection radius.
  
• Burn damage is half of the bullet damage, and stun time is 1s, only take effect on single-shot weapons and shotguns .

Yes, this mod affects mechs, including the secondary gun of the boss.
In the vanilla environment, this is a mod that increases difficulty - but if you have the mod Vanilla Weapons Expanded or Rimsenal - Augmented Vanilla Pack , it will be better. And the setting of electric arcs penetrating shields also weakens the ranged shield belt from vanilla apparel expanded - accessories. Those who have used it should know how powerful it is.
If you don't want a certain weapon's modification, you can directly delete the file named after the weapon in the folder.
If you have any suggestions, feel free to bring them up!

Make changes to Vanilla Weapons Expanded, Vanilla Factions Expanded - Deserters, Vanilla Factions Expanded - Pirates, PLA-Armory and Rimsenal - Augmented Vanilla Pack.
This mod will not make any changes to weapons added by other mods, unless they use the projectile def in vanilla or mods above.
I think that it may not be compatible with CE.

Remove "stun" damage from all of the high firing-rate weapons, to keep balance.
1.5 update ---- change package id so might need reactive in mod list.
