Patch [K4G] Empires of Old - Core & Factions

[N7Huntsman]

Additions

• Patch new apparel, weapons, and factions from the [K4G] Kingdoms of Old mod series.
  • Wherever possible, used patches from existing equipment as templates. Should be reasonably balanced.
• Patch factions added by the various K4G submods, adding ammo to pawnkinds and adjusting the Sultanate traders.

Reasoning

Many of the items were already patched in other places, or were comparable enough to patch with a few stat tweaks. Tried to stick reasonably close to vanilla balance.

Switched the 'bolter' from basically a very crude dart gun into a crude 9mm pistol, since the single, crappy weapon wasn't really worth making a whole new ammoset for.

Have to load the Sultanate faction before CE, because it otherwise adds a duplicate weaponTag field to the vanilla Bolt Action Rifle.

Alternatives

• Could take a different balancing approach to make mod equipment more unique.

Testing

Check tests you have performed:

• Compiles without warnings
• Game runs without errors
• (For compatibility patches) ...with and without patched mod loaded
• Playtested a colony (specify how long)
