About this mod Author’s original text

RS-422 Railgun (from Helldivers 2)

An experimental weapon with extremely high penetration, the high-tech RS-422 Railgun is designed to poke holes in the largest xenophobes known to mankind. This extreme single-shot damage, however, comes at the cost of rate of fire - besides being single-shot, the RS-422 must be charged for roughly a second before it can be fired. For maximum firepower, an "Unsafe" mode can be toggled, which enables the user to charge the Railgun up far beyond the normal limit; at max overcharge, the projectile hits approximately six times harder! Just make sure not to overload the railgun, unless you want to eat a facefull of energy...

Features

  • RS-422 Railgun (charge it up, just watch those bars! Stick a scope on the top, the optic will disappear. Found under Anti-Materiel rifles in the item spawner)
  • RS-422 Railgun Cell (good for one shot... as if you'll need more than that anyways)

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
