I'd like to start off by thanking the mod dev P0k3r for his hard work in making the best in-progress gun mod I've seen on Ark thus far.
That being said, I'd like to hear your guys' ideas that might make the mod better.

Who knows, maybe the dev will like one of our ideas and add it some day!



And since I have nothing better to do while my giga is incubating, I put together a thick list of random ideas I had in the last half hour:
-Separating the gun cabinet into 3 parts; An ammo crafting station, a gunsmithing station (that looks like a milling tool), and using the gun cabinet for storing the items that are crafted
-Different ammo types, such as armor piercing for armored dinos, and hollow point ammo for extra damage to non-armored dinos, costing extra resources per special bullet so standard rounds still get used
-Have a metal gun cabinet (or gunsafe) for metal-tier bases
-Dropping the held weapon on the ground on death for realism (but with as long an expire timer as your inventory?)
-Bolt action rifles with higher-zoom optics
-50 cal firearms and rounds of high cost and damage, low damage to non-metal structures
-A tripod-mounted machine gun you can place/pick up as a structure
-Shotguns! Double barrel, pump, semi-auto, full-auto
-Shotgun ammo types: Slug (high damage, kicks smaller dinos back, one pellet), buck shot (a few pellets, mild spread, moderate damage), bird shot (many pellets, high spread, less damage), rubber slug (a single low damage pellet for torpor inflicting and/or a quick stun)
-A dedicated bolt action tranquilizer gun like real life animal control guns (with optional scope)
-KA-BAR bayonet attachment to bayonet-studded rifles that's usable as a standalone knife
-Change material of rifles (wood to polymer conversion kits, etc)
-Rocket launcher clone, except as an RPG
-Expensive M67 grenade that doesn't destroy structures and has wide area of high damage (another mod I used had pineapple grenades but it absolutely DESTROYED structures like it was C4, it was OP and defeated the purpose of grenades, which is room clearing)

Please share your ideas and discuss!
