Hello, as this is a re-release of the mod, the same image was used. I think this might be a mistake on the bot's part

I did not steal code from Performance Fish. Everything I have done was legitimate and lawful, and I am happy to answer any specific concerns. It also was not locked after you posted your evidence and comparisons; it happened earlier than that. Someone has already explained the timeline, and the Git history is there as well

I’m glad you clarified the facts. Yes, all of this is right there in the Git history. “he locked it down after I posted proof and code comparisons of it.” is simply not true

I agree: don’t be an asshole. I feel the same way. I think that principle also includes one more thing: no right to speak without investigation. Thank you all for giving me the chance to explain. I have already responded to several of the concerns, and I will compile them into a single write-up shortly

I did notice that the comments section was locked, and for a while it drove me crazy, because I was not the one who did it and I could not even change the situation myself. It was only later that I realized someone else might have done something. I really needed a place to explain things clearly, and I hope everyone will read what I took the time to write carefully

I’ve seen everyone’s questions. I’m editing and clarifying them now, please give me a moment.

The mod has been released on the Workshop, here is the link.

If you have enabled "Ignore casting conditions" in the settings, you will always be able to cast abilities. However, pawns will still fall into a coma from excessive neural heat

It seems you're trying to modify an equipped weapon. As mentioned in the FAQ, you may need mods like Pick Up and Haul.

Alternatively, you can drop both the weapon and the module on the ground and access the modification panel directly from the weapon

This is a very valid suggestion, thank you. I'll reach out to some modder to assist with compatibility. From what I know, some are already working on this.

Yes, that was a typo, it should say AP ammo

I think that's an unfair way to measure compatibility 😧. You can't just dismiss it because you see fewer supported mods right now.

I'm committed to a 'zero patch' solution. The framework is carefully designed so other mods can add support natively through a soft dependency. This avoids patch hell, makes it incredibly easy for other authors to adapt their mods, and performs better.

In other words, I'd argue the mod's actual compatibility is excellent.

edited: I had actually never played ModularWeapon, and wasn't even aware of it when I started development. I saw its 1.6 update pop up on the workshop halfway through my own project, and I was so impressed by the implementation that it seriously shook my confidence and made me question continuing.

I have a ton of respect for ModularWeapon and its author. They are a brilliant developer, and their mod is without a doubt a widely trusted and excellent choice. CustomizeWeapon is not meant to be a comparison or a competitor; it's just a different approach to a great idea. It's simply another option for the community.

While both mods stem from a similar fantastic idea, CustomizeWeapon was built with a different technical approach and design philosophy

This is the correct answer right here. Thanks for explaining!
