H.A.I. Laser Weaponry Pack

"Because a standard-issue shovel is no longer sufficient for corporate survival."

Welcome to the future of asset protection. Hoplit Armament Industries (H.A.I.) is proud to introduce our state-of-the-art energy arsenal, designed specifically for independent contractors facing extreme hostile environments.

Equip your crew with cutting-edge thermal energy solutions, featuring fully custom mechanics, bespoke animations, and dynamic VFX.![Showcase Image] (

🤖 Developer Note: Transparency on AI Usage

To be fully transparent about the development process of this mod, I want to clarify how AI was used:

  • 🎨 100% Manual Work: All 3D models, textures, animations, and Unity visual effects (VFX) were created entirely by me from scratch. A lot of time and passion went into the visual and technical design.
  • 💻 AI Assistance (Coding Only): I am a designer first. I used AI strictly as a programming tool to assist with C# scripting and navigating Lethal Company's complex API. It was used to automate systematic coding tasks and learn backend intricacies.

Every line of AI-assisted code was manually reviewed, modified, and rigorously tested in-game. I believe in using neural networks responsibly as a tool to save time and bring an artistic vision to life, not as a replacement for human creativity.

🔫 The Arsenal

Our initial rollout provides your crew with the essential tools for pinpoint threat elimination and sustained suppression.

H.A.I. Compact Laser Pistol

A lightweight, highly reliable sidearm. Fires concentrated thermal energy beams instead of physical projectiles.

  • Semi-Automatic: Fast and responsive, perfect for quick encounters.
  • Overheat Warning: Watch your trigger discipline! Spamming shots will cause the internal heatsink to fail, forcing a cooldown cycle.

H.A.I. Laser Emitter

When precision isn't enough, bring the heat. A heavy-duty weapon that fires a short laser beam.

  • Continuous Suppression: Melts through targets rapidly.
  • High Consumption: Drains battery life and generates heat at an alarming rate. Use in controlled bursts.

⚙️ Core Mechanics & Features

We didn't just add glowing guns; we built a complete energy weapon ecosystem from the ground up:

  • 🔋 Universal Laser Cells: Both weapons run on proprietary H.A.I. Laser Cells. Check your exact battery percentage directly via the scanner or HUD tooltips. Tactical reloads are supported (swapping a partially empty cell for a fresh one).
  • 🔥 Dynamic Heat System: Weapons physically heat up during use. You can hear the heatsink hissing and see the barrel glowing red-hot.
  • 💥 Advanced Visuals (HDRP): Fully dynamic HDRP laser beams that illuminate dark corridors.
  • 🖌️ Impact Decals: Laser impacts leave behind glowing scorch marks and dynamic smoke that realistically fade over time.
  • 🎬 Custom Animations: Fully integrated first-person and third-person animations for firing, tactical reloading, and weapon inspection.

💻 How to Purchase

H.A.I. hardware is highly classified and will not appear in the standard store. You must access our exclusive corporate partner network via the terminal.

  • Open the ship's Terminal.
  • Type corporate or help to view partner catalogs.
  • Type hoplit (or the hai alias) to enter the Hoplit Armament Industries network.
  • From here, you can order the Laser Pistol, Laser Emitter, and Laser Cells.

Note: All purchased items will be delivered via the standard hourly drop pod at your approximate location.

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:
