Question on weapon modding

[thorfrog]

I want to give torpedoes a plus 15% to hit bonus in a weapon tweak mod I'm working on. What's the best way to add this in?

[Phoenix-D]

I foresee a lot of questions from you in the near future.

Anyway, you want to change this line:

Weapon Modifier := 0

Higher = better bonus.

Do you mean change from Weapon Modifier := 0 to say Weapon Modifier := 15 for a 15% boost to hit?

[PvK]

Yes, he does.

Also it helps to add a note about it in the description, because otherwise players won't know the weapon has a bonus to hit.

You could give the weapons a dud ability (like Star-unstable) to put the description of the bonus to hit in the section at the bottom of the in-game display that lists the descritpions of abilities. That is probably the best place to put it, because it is the most noticable.

Speaking of duds, which other abilities can be used for this purpose?
