'''Fallout: New Vegas''' introduces additional functionality to ammunition, including allowing users to choose between multiple ammunition types for weapons. A [[Weapon]] specifies which ammo types are acceptable by using a form list. | |||
In addition to the settings listed above, the following settings are introduced into the Ammo dialog in the Vegas Edition of the GECK. | |||
*'''Weight:''' The weight in pounds of a single round of ammunition. Up to four digits of decimal precision are allowed by the editor. | |||
*'''Projectile:''' The projectile used when this ammunition is selected, overriding the normal projectile of the weapon. If left blank, the default projectile type for the weapon is used instead. | |||
*'''# Proj per Shot:''' If set to zero, the weapon's default projectile count is used. If non-zero, this overrides the number of projectiles produced per shot when this ammo type is loaded. Note that the weapon's damage figure is divided amongst all of the projectiles, so increasing the number of projectiles will reduce damage per projectile, while decreasing the number of projectiles will increase damage per projectile; higher projectile counts may not be able to bypass Damage Threshold. Note that any value from 1-255 will work but high values may cause lag when the weapon is fired, especially in rapid-fire weapons. | |||
*'''Abbrev.:''' The abbreviated name displayed adjacent to the ammunition counter on the user's HUD in game, to inform the player which ammunition type is being used. Although it will accept several alphanumeric characters, the normal HUD only has room for 3 to 4 letters to display without overlapping other elements. | |||
*'''Effects:''' The list of [[Ammo Effect]]s associated with this ammo type. | |||
*'''Ammo Consumed (Percentage):''' The object type, and the percentage odds, that will be randomly created in the user's inventory every time the weapon is fired. Used in the default game to collect shell casings for hand-loaded ammunition. The name of this setting is something of a misnomer as it represents items added when the ammo is consumed, not objects that are consumed themselves; the name may simply be vestigial from earlier development. | |||
