nice

In the case of something like this, having a range config would also be perfect, along with an option to use it underwater. I understand *why* a lot of things don't work underwater, but it's also strange that you can't do something like make an underwater version that has slower fire rate and damage like you can IRL. You would think a video game would allow more crazy options rather than limit things more than IRL does lmao.

Oh, ya, I saw the other test mod, but I typically don't touch test mods since they aren't typically meant for public use :o Especially since we already have like 41 mods on the server
As for the ini config, realistically the basics should generally be durability cost for actions (i.e. the Cybertek Gen 2 stuff has a config to enable/disable durability use and the how much per shot and how much per melee hit with gun it costs and you can change those values), recharge/overheat/ammo use (some tools and guns overheat super fast and take to long to cool down, like mining drill etc, while others use up chunks of "ammo" like the railgun does), and damage values (because some weapons genuinely have low damage for no reason while others have ridiculously high damage, honestly seems arbitrary and forces the use to focus on the Longneck Rifle and sword).

the ini should be working and customisable on that mod

but in the meantime i would recommend testing https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3469864107 the railgun from this mod and see if there is anything else you would like to have added as config and i will see if its doable (im a rookie modder). If you do please read the discussion thread on it beforehand as the mod has a few bugs with config settings

yea that was the reason i even started ''modding'' i only play pve and railgun is most useless lategame weapon and all the railgun mods are wierd (i think a few of them are forgetting to change weapons range along with xray range that was how i got it working ok...ish). I should be done with the update mid next week i hope

Surprised, and happy, to see a fairly old mod actually got noticed by its creator when something was brought up about it lol. I first found these mods just looking for more underwater weapons and tools options. I don't want "unlimited ammo/durability, insta kill, yadda yadda" I just want stuff that's usable underwater. But in terms of stuff like the railgun, it needs the extended range and a damage buff XD Thanks for noticing the comment btw, looking forward to maybe testing this mod on my server.

That works, and honestly it still doesn't make sense to me how something called a *railgun* has less range than the longneck rifle to begin with... That just never made sense to me. Hell, using a different mod (Cybertek - Gen 2) the railgun has been really unreliable for killing things as it seems to have a smaller hit box and way less range than any other firearm. Even the Tek Rifle has more range, as the flying plasma orbs just keep going till they hit something or despawn. It also has a config, and I had to basically add an entire extra digit to its damage to make it even remotely worth using. And even then a lot of dinos will take multiple shots and be fine.

i will updates this mod so it has the config options, but i need to rebuild it from the ground up (this is a very easy task, its not a very complex mod) so it wont cause problems for people using this mod

vanilla railgun has 10k as range, 29.4k range is the same as longneck i could prob increase it a bit but its very close to dino renderrange so might cause problems. ini is added https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3469864107 but this mod has flamethrower, reailgun, tek sword and electricprod added also

So in terms of adding an ini set for customization, I'd definitely recommend it so that players who use this mod will be able to tweak and balance fix for w/e other settings are being used. This is entirely my opinion, but a high tech end game rifle that uses "railgun" logic should always have high range and damage. I can almost understand high energy use making it use an element per shot, but with how annoying it *can be* to get Element to begin with... It's super wasteful if it doesn't have the damage or range available to it.

I have to ask, for the sake of clarity and clarification, is the first stat the vanilla vs what you did? Like the 10,000 unit range vs 29,400 range, is the 10,000 vanilla? Or is the 29,400 vanilla? In which case, why is the railgun the same range as a long neck rifle? It should most definitely have longer reach than a standard gun powder based bullet lol. I'm mostly looking for mods that let me use weapons in water, and I found this one and it has specifically that... But I also don't want some end game high powered rifle to get nerfed into the ground.
