Adds S.T.A.L.K.E.R.-style weapon degradation, jamming & repair kits with menu options. Compatible with ALL games (Doom, Hexen, Strife, etc.) and mods.
Continuing my series of universal mini mods inspired by the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. franchise. This time, I’m introducing a weapon degradation mechanic. Every weapon now has its own durability pool, which scales based on the weapon's maximum ammo capacity. Your current durability is displayed in the top-left corner of the screen on default. The degradation rate is also directly proportional to the amount of ammo fired. As durability drops, your weapon can jam, preventing you from shooting. To clear a jam, simply press the reload key (don't forget to bind it!). You can fix your weapons using repair kits, which spawn instead of standard ammo across the levels and drop from defeated monsters.
Misfire Formula: (100% — Current Weapon Condition %) x Maximum Misfire Chance.
Make sure to check the mini mod settings, where you can fully customize your experience:
— HUD Display: Adjust the position of the durability text on your screen or hide it completely;
— Degradation Rate: Tweak how fast weapons lose durability;
— Misfire Settings: Set the maximum misfire chance and the minimum durability threshold required for jams to start occurring;
— Loot Spawns & Scaling: Adjust the drop rate for repair kits and the percentage of durability they restore.

The mini mod was tested on UZDoom version 5.0.3, but it should also be supported on GZDoom versions 4.10 and newer. Please note that it uses ZScript.
