how would you go about changing the damage and armor penetration on support weapons like the autocannon for example?

this is genuienly amazing. i still have one gripe, there is not a singular example on how to give more than just one change to a weapon. something something field no exposed. how to expose? what does expose even mean? idk. i need an example. im never going to just change a rate of fire or just change a damage.

edit: gonna try the mod builder it might be my answer

You can absolutely make multiple changes in one mod. For fields on the same underlying object, you basically use a transaction with multiple changes. and ofc for unrelated fields/targets you just add more hd2.ensure(...) operations.


Example:

Code:

local hd2=require('mods/skyeshade/hd2runtime')

local operations={}
operations[#operations+1]=hd2.ensure({
    transaction={
        id='gui-object-56b8e30bb15bf8c7d388ee40',
        target=hd2.weapon('AR-23 Liberator'):attack('primary'):projectile(),
        allow_shared=true,
        changes={
            {field=hd2.fields.damage.ap_direct,expect=2,value=3},
            {field=hd2.fields.damage.ap_extreme,expect=0,value=1},
            {field=hd2.fields.damage.ap_large,expect=2,value=3},
            {field=hd2.fields.damage.ap_slight,expect=2,value=3},
            {field=hd2.fields.damage.player_standard_damage,expect=90,value=100},
        },
    }
})
operations[#operations+1]=hd2.ensure({
    patch={
        id='gui-object-f20713ef4d7a5cb02017983d',
        target=hd2.weapon('AR-23 Liberator'),
        field=hd2.fields.weapon.fire_rate,
        expect=640,
        value=900,
    }
})
operations[#operations+1]=hd2.ensure({
    patch={
        id='entity-784e355dc80f63d32faff4eb',
        target=hd2.weapon_attachment('weapon-attachment/v1/magazine/rifle-5-5x50mm-extended/bfc7127000978692'),
        allow_shared=true,
        allow_unverified_effect=true,
        field=hd2.fields.attachment.magazine_capacity,
        expect=45,
        value=60,
    }
})
return operations

That changes the Liberator’s damage/AP, fire rate, and extended-mag capacity in the same mod.


I’d also recommend checking out HD2Runtime ModBuilder, i linked it in this mod page. it can generate this structure for you and makes it much easier to see which fields are currently available.


As for “exposed”. it basically means a field has been mapped and proven enough for Runtime to let mods write to it safely. Some game values still aren’t writable yet because I haven’t finished identifying/proving their native data or behavior, so Runtime intentionally blocks those instead of guessing.

now i have another request in the future can you look into allowing the removal of certain weapons from the list? or strategem deleting or even adding some support weapons into the primary list?

peyman3507 said:

these are very very expansive and impressive but i wanna see if you could allow any normal weapon to apply status like stun. i saw someone on reddit give minigun stun so i wanna do that too
