Here's a quick look at a couple of new ammo types coming to Munitions 1.1- 4.7mm caseless rounds and BB pellets! 4.7mm caseless rounds were last seen in Fallout 2 while BB pellets have been in every previous Fallout title.

Here's the full list of all ammo types you'll see in this update. Items in blue are new in version 1.1.

In addition to the new ammo types, I've changed the way ammo is injected and handled by the holotape to allow players to toggle each ammo type on or off. In version 1.1, all ammo types are automatically injected into the game. However, each ammo type is now controlled by a corresponding global variable. Each ammo type's global is used to tune the Chance None field on their respective leveled lists. By default, all ammo globals are set to 100, which means that by default, there is a 100% chance to return nothing from the leveled list.

This allows you to effectively add or remove an ammo from appearing throughout the game by changing the global (which can be toggled in the holotape). The only caveat is that you'll need to wait up to 72 in-game hours so that vendors and containers can refresh with the changes.

There are also a few other new features such as a totally reorganized holotape menu, a holotape crafting recipe at the chemistry station (just in case you lose the original), and probably some other things I can't think of at the moment.


No release date yet as there's still plenty of work for me to do.



Merry Christmas!
