PAWS or Personal Armor Weapon Systems is a mod that adds self-defense modules that automatically detect and shoot targets within range that are most vulnerable to that damage type. It implements a complete targeting and fire-control overhaul. MVP Modules: Slowdown launcher and the Artillery Remote.

Supports quality weapons and ammo (preferring the most damaging ammo).

Complete:

• Gun turret

• Shotgun

• Lasers

• Flamethrower

• Rocket Launcher

• Minelayer

• Grenade Thrower

• Poison and Slowdown Capsule Thrower

• Artillery Remote

Things to fix in future iterations

• Art for each weapon system

• Separating the slowdown module from the poison module

• Thumbnail for mod

• Code efficiency review

• Radioactive and toxic resistance modules

Usage:

• Install mod and start up game

• Build the personal defense weapon

• Insert into modular armor

• Grab sufficient amounts of ammunition

• Travel to an offending biter nest and engage in extreme diplomacy. In order to help be ups friendly the mod will wait for the player to be damaged or attempt to damage another target before awakening.

• Once negotiations break down self-defense them to death.

Mod State

This is currently in a stable state though I don't intend on expanding this right now. Maybe eventually I'll work up the energy to figure out why it gobbles UPS like starving wolf. So until I decide to work on that this is effectively abandoned.

Inspired by:

Personal Flamethrower and TurrentPod. They do great work, check them out.
