[Bombastic Perks] Two gun-related perks

[GuardianDll]

Summary

None

Purpose of change

Little revolver-related perk that i thought about

Describe the solution

Add perk, add required infra
Also added second perk, that benefits .22 guns

Testing

test of weakpoint enchantment:
no weakpoint enchantment

with wp enchantment (numbers are inflated for test purposes)

no AP and AP enchantment applied

Additional context

Also thought about perk that gives bonuses for using .22, as a tribute to Holli

That does what? +AP 🤔?

> That does what? +AP 🤔?

honesly i'd like something more interesting, more engaging, not flat bonuses
but my brain is smol and fails me to make something interesting
armor pen could work

Make it "bounce around the targets internals" (stun/extra bleed)
Give it the best stopping power (knockdown on hit)
Tactical tininess (make it much more likely to hit weakpoints)
Low power let down (All shots do 20% less damage, with a 20% chance to deal double/triple damage)

[GuardianDll]

when i meant "something more engaging" i mean it in literal sense: "make a headshot to deal 2x damage" or stuff like this, something that gonna force player to make decisions: do i want to continue and increase the score, or i'll better retreat?

Your ideas are cool tho, i may implement them

Yeah that'd also be a nice. An issue with .22 LR is that it doesn't deal crits because it doesn't cross a damage threshold

I apologize for this unsolicited name suggestion but "Rimfire Rebel" has been stuck in my brain

[TheShadowFerret]

I don't think altering vanilla weakpoints for mod content is considered kosher 🤔

[GuardianDll]

I didn't alter them tho, i added new field, it may be used later for different purposes

Hints for adding a new word to the dictionary

• If the word is normally in all lowercase, such as the noun word or the verb does, add it in its lower-case form; if the word is a proper noun, such as the surname George, add it in its initial-caps form; if the word is an acronym or has special letter case, such as the acronym CDDA or the unit mW, add it by preserving the case of all the letters. A word in the dictionary will also match its initial-caps form (if the word is in all lowercase) and all-uppercase form, so a word should be added to the dictionary in its normal letter case even if used in a different letter case in a sentence.
• For a word to be added to the dictionary, it should either be a real, properly-spelled modern American English word, a foreign loan word (including romanized foreign names), or a foreign or made-up word that is used consistently and commonly enough in the game. Intentional misspelling (including eye dialect) of a word should not be added unless it has become a common terminology in the game, because while someone may have a legitimate use for it, another person may spell it that way accidentally.

Looks great! I wish there was some excuse to have a 22 revolver with the OLD_GUN tag so one could really triple down on boosting something silly with perks, but using a modern 22 revolver will have to do.

[GuardianDll]

just add some revolver in vanilla, that fit our inclusion criteria, that can be considered OLD_GUN in the mod, and here you have it
