RimDark 40K - Mankind's Finest: Armory Patch

[Jawnner]

Additions

• Patched weapons added by Mankind's Finest: Armory.
• Primarily used a pre-existing patch and the already made patches for the Grimworld series of mods to balance initially.
• Removed native ammo switch found in base mod and will instead use the different ammunition provided by Combat Extended.

Changes

• None, first pass of this patch.

References

• Used RimDark 40k - Mankinds Finest Patch #4432 as reference for code and some balance

Reasoning

• 40K weaponry is very advanced, specifically those used by the Space Marines.

Alternatives

• Wanted to patch the guns to be able to use melee, but ran into multiple failures. Pretty sure something is funky with the xpath, as the patch method has been used before with no issues in various other patches.

[MysteryShades]

Hello, this is my first time using GitHub and posting a comment. I successfully fixed the issue where the Bolter's melee function was not working. The original mod's Bolter used Core40k's custom ammo system, which caused a conflict.
