Khall's Carbines & Shotguns

This mod adds the carbine weapon type back into the game to fill the gap between rifles and shotguns. Carbines use existing carbine assets (which are currently used for shotguns in vanilla), and the existing shotgun role now uses new assets.

Carbines are lighter, shorter range versions of rifles, trading effectiveness at longer ranges for higher rate of fire and mobility. The old shotgun's 1.5x reaction modifier has been reassigned to carbines. Carbines use new sounds and current carbine sprites in ground combat.

Stats (brackets are rifle stats)Weight: 3kg (5kg)
Reload cost: 20TU (25TU)
Ammo: 20 (20)
Range: 15 (20)
Only 3 Aim modes: Snapshot TU 22% ACC 40% (Snapshot TU 28% ACC 45%)
Normal TU 30% ACC 70% (Normal TU 40% ACC 80%)
Burst TU 40% ACC 40% (Burst TU 55% ACC 45%)
Damage: 5/6 of equivalent rifle damage
Has 1.5x reaction modifier


Shotguns are largely the same except:

Pellets: 6 (from 3)
Damage per pellet: 3/5 of original damage
Weight: 4kg (from 3kg)
Has 1x reaction modifier (from 1.5x)

This means an overall increase in damage and reliability, at expense of 1.5x reaction modifier and slight increase in weight. Upgraded shotguns now use the new assets and sounds, using the equivalent rifle sprite in ground combat.

Regarding the new sounds, the carbines were made by modifying the sounds of the equivalent tier pistols (which also have an unused burst sound) to make them sound different than the pistols, more what shots from an automatic would sound like, but less powerful than rifles, so they sound unique. The upgraded shotguns's sounds consist of two components. A heavily modified version of an equivalent rifle shot, so it sounds more powerful, and a short sound similar to the "pump" of the ballistic shotgun. This was done by modifying and mixing in reload sounds, e.g. the plasma shotgun has a "latch" sound to simulate the plasma stream being cut off, and MAG has a charging up sound after it fires. This makes the shotguns have their own identity and feel powerful to use

Other changes:
•AK47 now replaces ballistic rifle, with modified sound and using the AK47 ground combat sprites
•M16_short is used for the ballistic carbine, with modified sound and using the default rifle ground combat sprites
•Incendiary grenades have been added, using modified art and projectiles of stun grenade
•New rocket projectiles for upgraded rockets
•New xenopedia images for each weapon tier
•Alien weapons now use different projectiles depending on type
