| How upgrades work | ||
| 1 | weapon_upgrades.xtbl lists, per weapon, fields to change at each upgrade level. | weapon_upgrade_parse 00d72a20 |
| 2 | For each level the game copies the weapon's base stats and patches the listed fields. | weapon_upgrade_apply_overrides 00d6d5c0 |
| 3 | Each change has a mode: OM_REPLACE (set), OM_ADDITIVE (add), OM_MULTIPLICATIVE (multiply) or OM_REMOVAL (remove), and one <Value> per level. | |
| Tip | To change one upgrade level, edit weapon_upgrades.xtbl rather than weapons.xtbl. | |
