This is a set of 4 weapons, 3 of which are combi weapons, and one of which is an offspring. All of these weapons appear on the same loot table as the other special boltguns, meaning that the more missions you run, the more likely you are to collect them. The combi weapons use standard ammo for their "primary" (read: most visibly dominant) weapon, and pistol-sized ammo for their "attachments" (to reduce capacity, and not power). The bolt-firing mechanism on every weapon is considered the base weapon, so even though the combi-melta's "primary" weapon is the meltagun, it will react-fire with the boltpistol attachment. I made the hand flamer partially due to my desire to sword-and-flamer, and partially due to the need for a pistol-sized flamer ammo for the combi-flamer. All combi-weapons use the same script the other boltguns use in order to re-color the magazines.
Combi-Flamer: Performs identically to a boltgun, with the addition of an attached flamer. The flamer performs the same as a normal flamer, except it takes a new "small fuel" item as ammunition. This limits it to 3 uses.
Combi-Plasma: It's a boltgun but with a plasma attachment. The plasma attachment performs identically to a plasma gun snap shot. It uses plasma pistol charges as ammunition, limiting it to 6 single shots, but keeping the same power as a plasma gun.
Combi-Melta: Unlike the other weapons, this is a combination of a melta gun and a boltpistol. It performs identically to both a melta gun and a bolt pistol, although it is a two-handed weapon.
Hand Flamer: Sororitas, rejoice! A lighter, one-handed version of the flamer. It fires faster and in smaller bursts. Hand flamer fuel is identical to standard flamer fuel, although it comes in a smaller capacity. It shares fuel with the combi-flamer. This is the only weapon that doesn't appear as random loot, and is instead purchasable.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- I don't know if I can set an individual max range for the combi-flamer attachment, so it can technically target across the map. It is a flamer, so that's a big technically.
- I didn't make custom images for the UFOPedia - the combi-weapons appear as boltguns, and the hand flamer appears as a flamer.
- I wasn't sure how to modify the loot table without overwriting the terrain file, so I didn't package it as a mod.
- I am not a talented artist
Update - I've re-attached the file with some improved graphics (bigobs and handobs). It's most noticable on the combi-flamer.
