Aftershock: Add ETC firmware gunmods to Caseless military weapons.

[John-Candlebury]

Summary

Mods "Aftershock: Add ETC firmware gunmods to Caseless military weapons."

Purpose of change

Aftershock ceaseless weapons use ETC technology lore wise. Until now this wasn't represented in game although allows justifications for interesting (if somewhat exaggerated) weapon mods to ballistic weapons that heavily adjust their behavior.

Describe the solution

Add an ETC firmware modslot that can fit a single firmware mod. Filling up this slot radically alters the behavior of the base weapons. And the mods are craftable only. The current options are:

• Overpressure: A flat damage bonus for the gun. Will cause your gun to get damaged and break eventually.
• Subsonic: A large flat damage penalty with an accompanying large reduction in gunshot noise.
• Overheat: A large flat ballistic damage reduction accompanying by a small heat damage boost. Also allows bullets to set targets on fire. Will also cause your gun to get damaged and break eventually.

Testing

Fired the modified guns.

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.
