This is a mod that adds a book for enchanted bullets. It programmatically looks through all bullets and makes enchanted variants of factory loaded non-variant bullets.
Not balance tested.
Updated to support stable 0.F-2.
Inspired by https://github.com/YASUYASUYASUYASU/magiclysm_addon.
Magiclysm-MagicBulletsMod into your Mods folder.saves/{WORLD}/mods.json and add magiclysm_magic_bullets to the modlist.If you don't care to tweak or modify the mod, you can delete everything outside of Magiclysm-MagicBulletsMod.
If you do care, then since CDDA looks for the modinfo.json, you can put this entire directory into your mods folder.
All base bullets will have 10 ammo types:
| Enchantment Type | Class | Description |
|---|---|---|
| fire | Kelvinist | Ignites and sets enemies on fire for a few turns. Massively decreased bullet damage. |
| ice | Kelvinist | Freezes them in place by stunning them. Moderately decreased bullet damage. |
| earth | Earthshaper | Fragmentation effect on hit. Moderately decreased bullet damage. |
| nature | Druid | Blinds if a headshot is landed, and slows them down. Mildly decreased bullet damage. |
| lightning | Stormshaper | Chain lightning on a bullet. Massively decreased bullet damage. |
| emp | Technomancer | EMP on bots. Massively decreased bullet damage. |
| light | Animist | Creates a flashbang effect on hit. Massively decreased bullet damage. |
| mana leech | Animist | Gain 3 mana on hit. Note: It takes 5 mana to make a bullet so this is not infinite. Slightly decreased bullet damage. |
| pierce | Magus | Laser on a bullet. Adds armor penetration once the code for armor penetration parsing is fixed. Decreased bullet damage. |
| black hole | Magus | Generates a black hole suction on a random enemy. Items and enemies are pulled towards it. Massively decreased bullet damage. |
| acid | Biomancer | Splashes acid on hitting. |
Since the bullet definitions are programmatically generated, customization is easy. After making tweaks, just run
python generator.pyfrom this mod's directory.
I have intentionally left out certain bullets (like grenades, paper cartridges), but anyone can add bullets into the src_data directory and rerun the script themselves.
The script assumes a bullet is a non-variant if it is not copy-from something else. Modify the extract_bullet_data function to change the behavior and rerun the script.
All bullet templates are in templates/ammo and all recipes are in templates/recipes. The syntax for templating is <id> for the bullet's ID, <sentence> for a sentence from the bullet's description, and <name> for the human-readable name of the bullet.
If this mod gets out of date and I don't update it, feel free to send a PR. Since there's no manual labor involved in changing the templates, it can fairly easily be brought up to date.
Note: Using "extend": {"effects": []} inside the JSON is better than overwriting, but it doesn't work in the latest experimental.
