Realistic APW-1 anti material rifle (AMR), heavy weapon damage overhaul mod. 1.0

A Mod for Helldivers 2
Realistic APW-1 anti material rifle (AMR), heavy weapon damage overhaul mod. akl_mod_preview_image
Installation instructions
download the files and drag the zips into the arsenal mod manager, ensure runtime zip is below the main mod zip in standard order for arsenal.

Realistic damage values for the anti material rifle, based on the fact that you know... its a 12.5mm rifle with HEI rounds, just the round alone should be at least ten time as powerful as the stand in for the 5.56x45 from the liberator. (not accounting for the explosive inside) The mod makes it do far more damage and less recoil (due to the heavy weight of the rifle). decreases bullet drag and spread, its now AP5 upon a direct hit AP4 for angled hits and still do AP2 when the bullet bounces (its a heavy bullet still). the explosion now stuns enemies and pushes them harder.

specific values changed (pre>overhaul)

muzzle velocity (880>1600)
drag (.3>.05)
rate of fire (400>550)

damage (450>1600)
durable (225>650)

armour penetration
direct (AP4>AP5)
bounce (AP0>AP2)
stagger (25>40)
push (25>40)

Status applied (none>stun)

Could you please also make the bounce ap 5? Having it all be AP 6 too would be great but I would imagine that changing the bounce to ap 5 would be simpler for you to do,
If a bullet bounces, most of the KE is not transferred onto the target as the round diverts, so AP2 is mostly blunt force trauma.

Could you please make an optional version of the mod in which the bounce ap is also AP 5 then please?

Can you make a version with everything at ap5 ? it is hard to have a consistent way to blow up bot building using this mod.

I'm not sure why, but after downloading this, my halo pistol started using twice as much ammo. I need to do some more testing to confirm, but this was the only change I made and it was working before. Love the mod though!

That's the point, its a rifle at the end of the day, it wont be able to just go through everything.
