Attachments and dispensers overhaul

[qDan]

Summary: transfer all combat 'shooting' attachments into armory from RO

Benefits&Details: marines will be able to use different weapons and 'replenish' ammo freely instead of sticking to in-built grenade launchers, also preventing gLaucher's looting from spare rifles and boosting the queue at RO as well. Additional /-/barrel attachments will still be available in RO but w\o combat ones thus helping marines not too waste their common limit on underbarrel attachment changing if they simply want shotgun or flamethrower instead

Also It might be a good idea to transfer bayonets and flashlights (attachment version) as well because its totally common things for absolutely every soldier of every era.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): simply remove things from RO vendomate (but with possibility to order more via crates) and add specified attachments into armory's dispensers.

Lolwut? SLs and specs the only one who can get chargers which in limited quantity btw and standard marines cant get'em, while free granade lauchers from spare rifles still may be acquired and theres no whine about that way of FF from grenade spam. Anyway how my idea about shooting attachments affect anything else? Please learn to read before comment.

Bayos still popular because they help to remove resin crap fast and usually the only thing to get for lately joined players while already screwdrived flashlights can speed up preparations due to the fact the only screwdriver available for standart mehrins lie only at briefing and usually some lazy ass taking it with himself or dropping in far halls.

I could get behind this. Making your own bayonets can be a pain in the ass. But why are people still using flashlight attachments when we have an armor light?

Basically theres 2 reasons 1) in-built flashlight has shorter range then standart one (if this not changed in last updates), 2) if RO out of dots and maghars its the best option

Flashlight attachments add nothing statwise though. There's literally no point to putting it on your gun.

There's always throwing your gun when you run out of ammo to have it illuminate the area.

If you want to automate vendors, I'd rather have it use the money mechanic already present in the code. Basically: A marine starts with enough money on his bank account to buy two attachments and a laptop. SLs and Specs get one more. Attachment vendors take a sum of money when you swipe your ID.

I know dude, it's really hard to click a knife while holding coil, huh?

-1. RO lines is the only moment most marines can cooperate and follow semi-military rules.

I was thinking about suggesting making attachments have a price. We have EFTPOS device for some reason, isn't it?

Yeah, lets make marines buy guns using their money and turn it all into a merc sim.

-1 from me

The RO line (besides RP of getting equipment issued from a Quartermaster), serves an invisible balance purpose. It gives the aliens some preparation time to set up the battlefield, and the commander time to set up briefing.

On top of this, giving marines unrestricted access to attachments trivializes them a bit.

It's not that hard to ask for some. Don't be shy! MTs are your friends.

I don't think this is happening.
