All core systems are now essentially complete. What remains is fine‑tuning individual weapon settings, updating the UI, and adding the newly announced energy weapons.
In the video below, you’ll see a portion of the ongoing work on the framework, including the new craftable bow — shown here with temporary interface elements and debug widgets.
Supplementary details with illustrations can be found below:
New - the ability to shoot from the pseudo-hip, not only from ADS
New – a completely reworked shooting range with adjustable target distance, target perforation, and a separate hit preview screen. Available in the Training Center, and for now also as a custom map selectable at the start of the game and on Nesoi Island.
The shooting range has a back room with workshops for crafting/repairing weapons and a makeshift place to sleep (necessary for longer crafting sessions)
Unlimited hit decals. Max default now is 1000, you can increase/decrease this number in settings.
Different reload animations for weapons, colors and intensity of muzzle light, shot sound and effects for selected ammo.
Procedural spread for each weapon. Sway and fatigue are also in development. Ultimately, their strength will be tied to character progression.
Not just single shots. I've added burst and auto. Crafting will allow you to add new modes, such as auto for the pistol.
The Weapon Framework has taken a huge amount of work, but I truly hope it will be worth it. There’s still a bit left to finish, yet I’m optimistic the update is getting close.
