Removing firing mode in .rul

[x60mmx]

I am working on a mod to rebalance the weapons and need to know how to remove a firing mode from a weapon in the mod's .rul file.  Here is the Laser Pistol section from the default ruleset.  What would I need to do to remove the Pistol's Aim mode for example?  Thanks.

  - type: STR_LASER_PISTOL
    size: 0.1
    costSell: 20000
    weight: 7
    bigSprite: 5
    floorSprite: 5
    handSprite: 112
    bulletSprite: 5
    fireSound: 11
    hitSound: 19
    hitAnimation: 36
    power: 46
    damageType: 4
    accuracyAuto: 28
    accuracySnap: 40
    accuracyAimed: 68
    tuAuto: 25
    tuSnap: 20
    tuAimed: 55
    clipSize: -1
    battleType: 1
    invWidth: 1
    invHeight: 2

just remove the lines that define it:

Code: [Select]

    accuracyAimed: 68
    tuAimed: 55
If it has neither of those attributes, the weapon doesn't have an aimed shot. If it has only one of them, things might get weird. Since they both default to 0, I assume you would get either a TU cost but 0% accuracy, or a free shot with whatever accuracy.

Tried simply deleting the lines but it doesn't do anything strangely.

just remove the lines that define it:

that will not work if you change an existing weapon like laser pistol that already has existing values in that position
setting the values to 0 should do the trick

We have a winner!  Thanks!

New problem.  I changed the Accuracy of the Heavy Laser and ran into a strange problem.  The new Snap accuracy worked perfectly, but the Aimed Accuracy is not only incorrect ingame, it changes from soldier to soldier.  Any ideas?    Also having this issue with Plasma weaponry, but not the Laser Pistol or Laser Rifle.
