There is a big big problem about weapon spread, i'll explain with an example:
The classic formula for Weapon Spread is the following, right?
Spread = PerkModifiers(IronSightsBonus * CrouchBonus * (ConditionPenalty + SkillBonus) * (WalkPenalty + RunPenalty) + ArmPenalty)
Okay, so it means that with 10 skill we have a spread of 0,1575 using Ironsight, standing still, not crouched and with healthy arms.
This would mean that the formula is NOT changing a thing, and that the spread is only related to the min spread value of the weapon sheet. Why? Consider a 10mm pistol, it has 0,5000 min spread so even at 10 or 100 skill, the result of the Max(weap spread = 0,5000, spread = 0.1575) should always be 0,5000.
Naturally, we know that it's impossible.
To be sure of it, I did a little test: with vanilla settings I tried shooting at a wall carefully watching where the bullets were going to hit: the difference between 20 skill and 100 skill is noticeable.
What's wrong? oO
