Weapon Range Mod (Is there one?)

[noone025]

I'm looking for something to assist with issues around weapon range when sniping.

 

My interpretation of the issue relates to the damage fall off when the target is out of weapon range. I don't use the medium or long scopes as the short scope is plenty when coupled with the fall-off off effective range on rifles.

 

I would like to know more around if this can be adjusted with the current tools and if I'm missing a mod that already addresses this topic.

 

If it can be adjusted, I would like to see a longer range for rifles, possibly with suitable mods. Not sure if the change of caliber should help or hinder this, There seem to be plenty of gun / projectile / ballistic enthusiasts modding the weapons on F04 to give some guidance on that.

 

Its a little frustrating to get clipped at range (very low damage) from a pipe-rifle, but I think all rifles would nee to have the same ability for range or enemies would be target practice and the game would be less engaging out doors.

It should be pretty easy to do with FO4Edit by simply increasing the MaxRange properties value on the weapon's mods, mainly barrels that seem to be most commonly used for adjusting the range. I'm not certain on what effect the MinRange has, specifically whether it reduces the damage on close ranges or vice versa, but you'd might need to adjust that as well.
