Gun Statsheet Rebalances (Part: 2 - Weapon Handedness)

[GrahammerTek]

Changes

• Reworked mounting into 4 main categories "Handgun", "Handgun/Stocked", "LongGun", and "LongGun/Stockless". (Bipods and fixed guns still separate.)
• "Handgun" mounting works like OneHanded as before but with slightly reduced sway.
• "Handgun/Stocked" mounting works like OneHanded but with TwoHanded sights efficiency and recoil, and slightly reduced sway.
• "LongGun" mounting works like TwoHanded as before.
• "LongGun/Stockless" mounting works like TwoHanded but with OneHanded sight efficiency and recoil.
• Greatly increased the handling penalties for using a shield with a ranged weapon.

Reasoning

• Gives more flexibility for certain guns which don't fit the typical one/two handed categories. Examples being the Mac-10 which currently uses one-handed stats, giving it insanely high sway and lower sight efficiency despite having a stock, or the Sawn-off Shotgun from Armory which uses two-handed weapon stats, giving it normal sights efficiency and recoil despite having no stock.
• Moves the idea of weapons with the one-handed tag to refer to guns which can be used one-handed, instead of always used one-handed. Pawns will now be assumed to hold all weapons with both hands, giving pistols a buff to sway, but will switch to one hand when using a shield and will suffer much greater penalties than before. This gives more flexibility in determining which guns can be used with a shield. Currently discussed examples include lightweight SMGs such as the P90, Charge SMG, AM-180, etc. but may also extend to small carbines if determined to be feasible.
• All shields will give a flat -1.5 weapon handling penalty to represent the general loss in effectiveness from using one hand (about half for an 8 skill shooter). The additional shooting accuracy penalty will vary depending on how cumbersome the shield is, same as before.

Alternatives

• Idk, not doing it?
