A couple of months ago, I wrote a report for a bunch of minor bugs, the last one of which regarded weapon group priorities. These priorities are used to sort the weapons within their respective categories, but due to some of the unusual values, this leads to ordering issues. A couple of examples I have heard of are:
My suggestions regarding this issue:
- An MP7 grabbed from a pickup having priority over the M16-M203.
- The HM-101 Medic Pistol having priority over Tier 2 single pistols (1911 and Spitfire) and maybe even higher tiers depending on acquire order (Desert Eagle and AF2011).
- The SPX/Dual .500 Magnums loadout varying in group order depending on acquire order.
My suggestions regarding this issue:
- Go over the weapons listed, start them out at pure tier value (25 for T1, 50 for T2, 75 for T3, 100 for T4, >100 for T5), and adjust from there.
- Add a perk modifier to the default priority when initially adding the weapons and when changing perks. To throw out some arbitrary values, on-perk weapons get a +5 modifier, cross-perk weapons get +2, and off-perk get +0.
- (Optionally) add a +25 modifier per tier for upgraded weapons. Some weapons (like the 9mm/Dual 9mm) could opt out of this via a new per-weapon variable
