2025-UNRELEASED

v2.0.2

• Affects Developers Only: renamed function for ACOG/SUSAT sights from "Telescopic Sight" to "Prismatic Sight"
  • Just if anyone (likely no one) reused this function for a personal mod, they'd have to rename it
  • The function to add the PU Scope is separate even though it's telescopic too
  • I may expand that into a broader group of classic telescopic sights (since prism sights are a subset of telescopic sights)
• Reworked Underbarrel Grenade Launcher fixes
  • Universalized helpers
  • Removed many of the positioning variants for performance (I really went ham with those lol)
    • Performance-wise these should be fine since it'll short circuit after the M203 and GP-25 checks, which is basically the same amount of checks as a few ACOG alignments
    • I made these based on barrel parenting, so changing it to receiver parenting means I'd have to recheck it... all (some were already like this so I was just making it consistent)
    • fuck that the M203 is supposed to stay near the magazine anyways
    • maybe GP-25 alignments can get redone since that has a grip

v2.0.1

KNOWN ISSUE: Crosshairs are NOT aligned for a vast majority of Holographic Sights and Telescopic Sights (ACOG/SUSAT). I only physically aligned them for this update. Helbores and Revolvers are likely fine.

I started repatching holosights broken by the refactor, and I took the opportunity to clean up some things as I saw them.

Which also led to me finding out that this also unaligned the Telescopic Sights. So I worked on that too.

Haha.

Ha...

• Reworked Holographic Sights
  • Allowed different parents
  • Realigned (physically) Holographic Sights
    • Autoguns, Bolters, Bistols, iLas, Helbores, Recons, CShotguns, Revolvers
    • Probably unaligned the crosshair parts. I'll get back to that later lol (see known issue)
  • Refactored fixes to be more optimized to make up for (unnoticeable) hit from universal fixes, so no real change in the end lol
    • Shifted dependencies for the Alternative Viewmodels checks to allow for faster short circuiting (more efficient for the game)
    • Merged positioning and crosshair alignment fixes, so it won't run the same checks twice
  • Adjusted rails
    • Combat Shotguns
  • Fixed missing side magnifier for short Vortex
• Reworked Telescopic Scopes (ACOG/SUSAT)
  • Allowed different parents
  • Realigned (physically), same as holos
    • Autoguns, Bolters, Bistols, iLas, Helbores, Recons, CShotguns, Revolvers
    • Did not fix crosshair positioning in relation to this (see known issue at top)
  • Refactored fixes to be easier to add to different weapons, with a bit of optimization to make up for the unnoticable yet present performance hit
    • Unified sight_2 helper positions for all affected weapons, so an ACOG would have consistent reticle sizes across weapons
      • By manually aligning it for each weapon, the reticle sometimes would be further forwards (and smaller) on a certain family
      • So for example, an Autogun with an ACOG may have had a reticle smaller than a Recon Lasgun
    • Unified lens positioning for all affected weapons
    • Shifted dependencies for the Alternative Viewmodels checks to allow for faster short circuiting (more efficient for the game)
    • Merged positioning and crosshair alignment fixes for efficiency
  • Adjusted rails for some idek but for sure:
    • Combat Shotguns
  • Increased size of front lens for SUSAT so it's more snug (you see less of the brass rim inside)
• Reworked Dreg Gunner Bayonet
  • Added bayonet lugs so they're not floating anymore
  • Restructured shape so it's easier to make patches
• Actually made reload callback no longer require Discord mode

v2.0.0

The primary goal of this refactor was to make development easier, mainly by making it easier to copy and paste things (and hopefully to do that less often in the future, enough to make up for the amount I had to do to implement this update lmfao). Unfortunately, this will come with "breaking" changes that require reequipping attachments. Your game will not crash, but it's gonna be annoying. That's enough for me to call it a breaking change, so I bumped the version up to 2.0.0.

While refactoring, I had the chance to notice a few things I could fix.

BREAKING CHANGE(S):

• Renamed owo_rear_sight_ak to owo_kalashnikov_rear_sight, for function AND attachment names.
  • AK Irons
  • Scuffed AK Irons
• Renamed owo_bayonet to owo_historical_bayonet, for function AND attachment names.
  • M7 Bayonet
  • Seitengewehr 98
  • Épée Baïonnette 1886

ALL affected attachments must be reequipped! Any patches and fixes will also need to reflect this change.

Why did I do this? Idk I thought it'd be funny :3c. Ok but really though, I just figured I might as well rename them while I'm here because it's been bugging me for months. rear_sight_ak made it harder to mass replace. The other was just annoying (wow I'm an ass).

Other Changes:

Added:

• Disk Crossguard (WIP)
  • I started refactoring in the middle of this so it's not done lmfao
  • DClaw, PSword
    • Dclaw just refuses to accept new slots. will be investigated (in 3 years)
• Invisible Muzzles
  • If Syn added it to a gun, I didn't (naively hard coded to affect: Autoguns, Autopistol, Bolter, iLasguns, Helbores, Recons)
  • Bistol, Laspistol

Fixed:

• Fixes for Flat DClaw (G) Blades had a typo that prevented them from being applied

Reworked:

• Lasgun Condoms: Now the same structure as suppressors so making compatibility alignments is easier (and to not affect the scale of the slot's children, namely bayonets)
• Helbore Plasma Mags: Helpers moved to using owo_magac1 to avoid showing up in the "Magazine Accessories" slot dropdown, for users who use Syn's Edits (slot for the shotgun shell racks I think)

Refactor:

• Made functions to simplify creating custom slots on the developer side
  • create_default_attachment: Creates an empty attachment for the given slot (owo_<slot_name>_default)
  • initialize_custom_slot_for_weapon: Automatically creates empty table for the slot, then create a default attachment so hiding unused parts has a consistent part to rely on
    • Removed now-redundant shotgun foregrip and sight_2 part initialization
    • Removed owo_empty_foregrip()
    • Adapted the "hide parts fixes" to use these new defaults
    • Removed now-redundant default parts from each attachment creation function
  • initialize_table_of_custom_slot_for_weapon: Batch execution initialize_custom_slot_for_weapon over all names in the given table, so I don't have to copy paste so much at the top of each weapon file. Because this creates an extra table for each weapon, there is some additional overhead. It was not noticeable to me, so I'm willing to take it in exchange for the ease of development
  • create_custom_slot: Creates a new (visible, selectable) slot, then make the localization for it (which is provided when called, so it's easier for translators)
    • All weapons have been migrated to this new system.
  • hide_slot: Fills out the hide mesh and auto equip for helper attachments. Needs to be fed the dependencies. Also takes the helper and sends it into fucking space so it won't hog up space when using modding_tools (yes this is a stupid solution but eat my ass lmao), although this might be irrelevant since I'm autoequipping an empty mesh.
• Remembered how key-value pairs worked in tables (applied this to generic fixes functions to make use of given_type). Accessing and injecting by ["key"] instead of [key]
• Modularized type identity (logic fix for the 'or type')
  • When assigning a value (=) and using a or b, if a is valid, Lua will automatically use its value (short circuiting) to avoid extra calculations
  • Attachments were created with their slot being something like "barrel" or type with type being a parameter for the function
    • This was probably so you can make it a different type just by passing in a variable, with a default to fall back on
    • Instead, the default was applying every time

    • Melee
      • Trench Dagger Finger Guards
      • Shovel Handles
      • Historical Blades
    • Ranged
      • Suppressor Muzzles
