Purpose​

The increase in Ergonomics from 25 → 40 to compensate for the reduced ammo.

This buff is very nice since in HD1 MG-42 is shooting very nicely compared to HD2. That's my favorite weapon in previous game, thank you for returning it's previous identity!

I think this mod has stopped functioning?
Did it ever work for you though? I hope you can get to play it eventually. If you mean about updates, I will make updates for this one when I deal with other mod.

It did work for a bit, I loved it, but I don't see why it was given medium pen, don't get me wrong, I'm not the kinda guy to necessarily want nothing buffed, but it was fine being light pen :p

You mean the MGX. So, as I played the first game, I like to make weapons to feel like in HD1. And MGX in that game is basically Machine gun but expendable, makes up with every chaff unit on front.
Now, on bots this gun kinda sucks so I decided to give it a bit more usefulness on them too, to not feel weak.
P.S. it appears that I typed in the wrong mod chat 😅 thought this was my mod but it's Ice's, sorry. Can I toggle to not auto watch mods that you bookmark?
Damn, even an answer to coolmen is in here too. It's so confusing!

Yeah, I kinda wanted to make it the expendable MG-43, but if you don't like it, you can turn it off in mod options.

Is this mod broken? After I enabled it, only Armor Piercing upgraded to Level 3; nothing else changed.
