Weapon Mod Rules - MeridiusIX/Modular-Encounters-Systems GitHub Wiki

Weapon Mod Rules Profiles in Modular Encounters Systems are used by mod authors to restrict their weapons from appearing on grids during weapon randomization. Some reasons they may want to do this is because a weapon is not suitable to use for combat (designator turret), or a weapon doesn't fit well with the rest of the grid when randomly placed (turrets with passage/crew areas beneath them).

These profiles are not attached to SpawnGroups, SpawnGroup Conditions, or Manipulation Profiles. If they are detected in the world, then they will apply to all grids spawned with randomized weapons.

Here is an example of how a Weapon Mod Rules Profile definition is setup:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Definitions xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
