Burst Fire

[simmoheartskelly]

Hi, I am new to modding Fallout and I want to know, is there anyway to make a weapon have a burst fire rate?

 

For example, make a Handgun or an Assult Rifle fire in a 3 round burst with a single trigger pull?

 

I have already tried to do this, but the gun fires the 3 projectiles at the same time, not 1 after the other, which is what I want to do.

 

Anyone got any tips?

It will first need to be set to attack loop, as the attack animation, then change really the rate of fire on the first page. Be warned though that the relationship with VATS bursts is more weird. For small arms it's along the lines of 2 * number_of_bullets + 2. So to shoot 3 bullet bursts, you'd write 8 there.

 

But that's only for VATS shots, btw. There is no way to make it stop automatically after 3 shots the rest of the time, AFAIK.

So this would make the gun burst fire without VATS?

Yes, the gun would fire full auto outside of VATS.

Okay, I want to to be burst fire outside of VATs too...

As I was saying, I don't think it's even possible to make a gun stop firing after three shots. If you find out how to do that, please tell me too. I'd love a 3 round burst on some of my weapons.
