ImprovedCrossbows
Improves crossbows and makes them more fun to use, without turning them OP:
- Running pauses your reload instead of cancelling it.
- Reload progress shows as a ring around your crosshair.
- The last crossbow you put away stays loaded, even after logging out.
- Bolts fly toward your crosshair instead of landing low.
- Recoil is halved.
- Holding Block zooms in 2× with a loaded crossbow. You move at half speed, zoom faster with higher Crossbows skill, and zoom out when you shoot.
- While zoomed, a red X warns you when a nearby obstacle would block your shot.
- Zooming softly muffles sounds.
- Sneak attacks with any weapon show a big damage number with the multiplier.
Settings
Every feature can be turned off, and the recoil, zoom strength, zoom move speed and ring opacity can be tuned: in-game with a config manager (F1) or in BepInEx/config/Iteravio.ImprovedCrossbows.cfg. The host's settings apply to everyone, except the muffle, reload ring and sneak number, which each player picks.
Compatibility
- Everyone needs the mod, or they can't join.
- Works with modded crossbows too.
- Conflicts with other mods that change crossbow reloading, recoil or zoom.
