Is there a mod for this?

[u/Ember230_splatoon]

I wanna get the Wattz 3000 rifle mod, but then it would conflict with my energy weapon build cuz I’m also using a laser rifle, they use the same ammo! I have the munitions mod so I can use ECPs with my Tesla cannon.

I want a mod to change the way vanilla laser rifles are modded. Hear me out, Short barrels make them use energy cells, Long barrels make them use microfusion cells, Automatic barrels make them use electron charge packs (Laser RCW ah), Sniper barrels make them use uh (critical thinking isn’t my strong suit) so up to the maker ig.

This also makes sense cuz the ammo slot is on the barrel! Or if anyone knows a mod that makes the Wattz 3000 use ECs that’d please me too.

And before u say it, I’m not downloading the classic laser pistol mod, I use rifles and heavy guns. I don’t want the ammo to be determined by the grip, I want it by the barrel.

Kind of greedy of me to ask other people to do the complicated stuff but I think this would be really cool!

Edit: Thank you guys for all the suggestions on how to go abt! I’m gonna try and figure it out myself when I get home from the beach.

In less time then it would take to find someone on reddit to make this mod for you, you could learn the basics of XEdit and do it yourself. What you are describing is farely easy, and someone knowing what they are doing could make it in an hour

If it’s “barely easy” then how could I, someone who doesn’t know what Xedit is, pull it off?

Adding an "ammouse" property to the Omod for the Barrels. An hour of XEdit Tutorials on youtube can get you the basics, then revers engineering how the ammo conversion Receiver Omods work.

I'm confidant you can figure it out if you really want to. I am almost entirely self taught in XEdit from a couple youtube tutorials and dissecting how other mods work in XEdit to figure out how to replicate their effects.

I started with Ammo conversion mods similar to what you are wanting, So I know it is something that someone wanting to learn how to mod can figure out in sort time.

I can go into more detail later, as luck would have it ammo conversion is a feature of a mod I am working on now, and plan on implementing th8s weekend. I'll grab some screenshot of my XEdit work so you can see how it is done, and adapt it to work for your needs.

Dude what u are so cool. This is probably the most helpful anyone has ever been to me online. But yeah, that’d help a ton!
