Pistols Use Medium Range

Converts all the base game pistols from SHORT range weapons to MEDIUM range weapons.

-= WHY? =-

Because if you put a close range accuracy bonus for the Shotgun, it also applies to the Pistol (and a penalty for firing from afar would also apply).

I don't want that. Pistols should behave like Rifles for range penalties.

-= DEFAULTS =-

- All 3 basic XCOM 2 pistols are affected

-= SUPPORT FOR OTHER MODS / PISTOLS? =-

V2.0 Expanded support for 3rd party pistols and customization for the basic pistols. You can specify the pistol name and then assign any of the regular ranges in the game, plus ONE custom range you can define in the INI file!

-= CONFIG FILE =-

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\708886757\Config\XComMediumRangeWeapons.ini

-= COMPATIBILITY =-

No overrides. Changes only 1 variable in each pistol template.

-= LW2 COMPATIBILITY =-

The mod is compatible somewhat, but I recommend it ONLY for the vanilla game. Avoid due to balancing.

-= ALIEN HUNTERS COMPATIBILITY =-

They fixed the gun ranges in the DLC2 so you can use this to make the Shadowkeeper a Medium range gun again.

-= TROUBLESHOOTING /LOGGING =-

I implemented extensive logging capabilities for this mod. If you have any problems, go to the LAUNCH.LOG file after exiting the game, look for "PUMR" and then read it from up to down. You will see all steps. If something looks fishy, take the text and show it to me.
