Oh, cool.  Abstracted calibers are almost always better than real ones.  Is there any distinction in the game between rifles/pistols/shotguns, etc?
Are you going to run this game at some point in the near future, or is it just one of your game projects which never sees the light of play eventually grows boring, and gets abandoned?

Mostly it's the strength of them, but there are some things. Full auto weapons can hit up to 3 times in a turn, though each subsequent hit gets harder to pull off.

A lot of the difference will be outside of explicit mechanics; Ie, shoot someone with a shotgun up close and the damage will be higher.

And I hope not. A lot of my projects get 80% done before I realize "oh, this would be a lot of effort to run and ER already takes that effort."

But this is aiming to be heavily automated so hopefully I can avoid that.

Hm.  I wonder if creating a new VR program would earn monies.

Depending on how you go about it, I guess it might earn you sounds of ax sharpening.

Nothing to worry about, it is just a sound and sounds can't hurt you.

And don't bring the soundworm into this discussion.

Oh that was funny! It took me the better part of a minute to stop laughing, and my face still isn't fully under control.

@M24
Ooh, NJW just got trapped in a doorless metal room when he leapt through a door hoping to find safety.  Maybe your desires can alter what you find on the other side of a door.  Somebody with good mind should focus on wanting a door that leads back to the Sword, and then open that.  Maybe that's the solution to what is obviously a logic puzzle.  Even if it isn't, the worst that can happen is that you don't get exactly what you want and don't notice.

New Years resolution for you on ER, is it?

Mine... not to mess with anomalous stuff inside other anomalies...?
