Weapon Condition

[RickL]

I'm trying my hand at modding, but I've ran into a little problem. If i edit my test weapon like this:

item HCB{AmmoType = HCBBolt,ImpactSound = null,MaxRange = 5,WeaponSprite = Handgun,SoundVolume = 1,MinAngle = 0.95,Type = Weapon,MinimumSwingTime = 0.5,ToHitModifier = 1.5,NPCSoundBoost = 1.5,KnockBackOnNoDeath = TRUE,Ranged = TRUE,SwingAmountBeforeImpact = 0,ProjectileCount = 1,ConditionLowerChanceOneIn = 0.1,Weight = 2,SplatNumber = 3,PushBackMod = 0.3,MaxDamage = 1,SubCategory = Firearm,ConditionMax = 999,ShareDamage = FALSE,MaxHitCount = 1,IsAimedFirearm = TRUE,DoorDamage = 1,UseEndurance = FALSE,SwingAnim = Handgun,WeaponWeight = 2,DisplayName = Hand Cross Bow,MinRange = 0.01,SwingTime = 0.5,MultipleHitConditionAffected = FALSE,SwingSound = HCBDFire,SoundRadius = 1,MinDamage = 1,SplatSize = 3,KnockdownMod = 2,SplatBloodOnNoDeath = TRUE,Icon = HCB,RunAnim = Run_Weapon2,CriticalChance = 25,        AimingPerkCritModifier = 10,        AimingPerkRangeModifier = 1.5,        HitChance = 45,        AimingPerkHitChanceModifier = 15,        AimingPerkMinAngleModifier = 0.05,        RecoilDelay = 20,        SoundGain = 1.5,        ClipSize = 1,        ReloadTime = 20,        AimingTime = 40,        BreakSound  =   PZ_MetalSnap,}

 

It does show up in game and works, until I reload the save, then the weapon shows as broken.

 

I'm not too sure, as I`m not a coder and I could not find any info about it, but it may have to do with either of these lines;

 

ConditionMax = 999,

 

or

 

ConditionLowerChanceOneIn = 0.1,

 

 

If I edit my file to be;

 

ConditionMax = 30,

 

and

 

ConditionLowerChanceOneIn = 1,

 

the weapon shows and works in game even after a reload.

 

 

What I would like to know is, what is the max condition and degrading, for weapons before I get this broken weapon thing on reloads?

That's 1 condition point lost per use, so, the pistol would break after 30 shots, I think.

 

Edit: Rereaded, I've seen my comprehension fail, sorry. Don't know what are the min/max values.

[RickL]

Ok... I think I figured it out.

ConditionMax =

should never exceed 100 or the object will be broken (at least in my tests).

ConditionLowerChanceOneIn =

The higher the number, the slower it degrades, ie... 

ConditionLowerChanceOneIn = 75

will last longer than

ConditionLowerChanceOneIn = 25

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
