Title: [WIP] DartPistol
Post by: ivandogovich on July 27, 2014, 04:16:10 am

Edit:  The latest and greatest on this modpack is now in "complete mods" here: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php?topic=2789.0  ;)

Yeah, I know... Why?  :o

Who would want the Dart Pistol from TftD?  under powered, etc...
Especially, when a Dart Rifle is already available (Thanks Solarius).  ;)

Well, Solarius inspired me, and got me thinking about setting this up for my Pistols/Grenades Only "Up Close and Personal" series that I'm planning.   So I pinged him and Dioxine, (who was kind enough to gin up the graphics) and thought, what the heck.

And... I learned a ton about rulesets after messing up a bunch in my attempt to mod Solarius' DartRifle ruleset.  (Thanks a ton for the patience of the stellar devs on the openXcom irc channel) :D

But I got it working. ;)  Tests out in Geoscape and Battlescape. 

I wouldn't mind if others tested it, and or used it as they saw fit. :)

If I ever get feedback from another human that it works, I'll post it in completed mods. ;)

I kept the three tiered research/clips. :) Thanks for all your awesome work.  Feel free to incorporate this back into your Dart(Weapon) pack.

Cheers, Ivan :D
