Non-Lethal: Re-Examined

Sometimes, less lethal violence is the answer, however I wish we had some more options. I guess that’s how we ended up here.

I haven’t changed much since the existing content is in a good place so all it just needed a few tweaks and some new content.

The taser now has better range, the rubber pistol hits harder, and both got an accuracy buff.

For new content, we’ve got:

• A rubber shotgun for non-lethal close-quarters takedowns.
• A wall-mounted taser turret to handle prisoners and drop pod raids by stunning and eventually downing pawns.
• A tear gas launcher that applies a debuff to support the rest of your defense.

I highly recommend:

• Prisoners Should Fear Turrets – So your taser turret actually keeps prisoners from escaping. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2602436826
• Setting the death on down chance to 0% – So downed enemy pawns don’t have a chance to just die.

Full list of changes:

Taser:
- Range 6.9 -> 7.9
- Accuracy short 0.89 -> 0.90
- Accuracy medium 0.78 -> 0.82
- Accuracy long 0.6 -> 0.68
Rubber Pistol:
- Cooldown 1s -> 0.8s
- Accuracy touch 0.8 -> 0.95
- Accuracy short 0.7 -> 0.85
- Accuracy medium 0.4 -> 0.6
- Accuracy long 0.3 -> 0.5
Non-lethal Weapons research:
- Cost 1400 -> 1600 (To account for all the new addtions)
- Renamed to Non-lethal solutions
