To use any of the values from the table, prefix them with BaseStats., e.g. BaseStats.RecoilDir
| BaseStat | Description |
|---|---|
RecoilDir
Direction the camera sways in when shooting. +180 Degrees will make the recoil be completely opposite.
RecoilAngle
Affects recoil angle variability. Extremely hard to observe in-game.
RecoilHoldDuration
Sets the time before recoil begins to recover post-firing. If set to 1 second, recoil will hold it's position for one second, then begin recovering.
RecoilTime
Influences the time taken for the weapon to reach its maximum recoil distance. If adjusting RecoilKickMin or RecoilKickMax, adjust this value accordingly for a natural feel.
RecoilDelay
Determines the delay between firing and the start of the recoil effect. If set to 1 second, gun will hold it's position for 1 second before recoil begins.
RecoilRecovery
Controls the speed at which the weapon returns to its original position after recoiling. Opposite of RecoilTime.
RecoilEnableLinearX
Toggles horizontal recoil on (1) or off (0). Affects both ADS and non-ADS; no recoil means no camera/weapon sway, but bullet spread is still present.
RecoilEnableLinearY
Toggles vertical recoil on (1) or off (0). Affects both ADS and non-ADS; no recoil means no camera/weapon sway, but bullet spread is still present.
RecoilEnableLinearXADS
No observable effect in-game.
RecoilEnableLinearYADS
No observable effect in-game.
RecoilKickMin
Minimum recoil distance (camera movement/weapon sway)
RecoilKickMax
Maximum recoil distance (camera movement/weapon sway)
MagazineCapacityBase
Magazine capacity for a weapon
ReloadTimeBase
Governs the speed of which the reload animation plays (no effect on time before one can fire again)
EmptyReloadTime
Governs the speed of which the reload animation plays when magazine is empty (no effect on time before one can fire again)
ZoomLevel
Zoom level of a weapon
AimFOV
FOV in ADS (Gives the illusion of zoom)
HeadshotDamageMultiplier
Damage multiplier for head shots
HeadshotCritChance
Crit chance only for headshots
EffectiveRange
Range after which damage drop off begins
MaximumRange
Range after which bullet will despawn/not hit
WeaponNoise
Does not change weapon audio volume. Affects how enemies react to bullets landing near them, a high weapon noise will make enemies instantly detect you where as low weapon noise means enemies will just look around/ completely ignore the shot
Range
How far you can hit enemies from when using a melee attack. Most melee weapons have a range between 1.5 - 2
Weight
Weight of item in inventory (Set it to 1000 to annoy users 🤣).
ThrowRecovery
Time taken by throwable weapons to return to owner once thrown
CanWeaponIgnoreArmor
Misleading name, as this is not a boolean. Value of 0.5 will mean that the weapon can ignore 50% armor.
DPS
Damage of the weapon as shown in Inventory when the weapon is Tier 1
