Weapon Traits Fiddle
You defeated pirate leader and they dropped unique weapon. Legendary - awesome. But it has shoddy sights, is cumbersone and just does not have much going on. If only you could remove those shoddy sights and make it lightweight instead of cummbersome.
You got persona plasmasword, it has awesome traits, but your best mélee pawn is pyrophobic. What about transplating pesonality traits from this to that hammer over there.
Features
This mod allows you to salvage traits from unique and persona weapons. And then add then to different weapon.
[list]
[*] New item type - weapon upgrade, acquired by salvaging from weapons.
[*] New actions for unique/persona weapons - salvage upgrade, apply upgrade.
[/list]

On getting upgrades
They are avaialable only from weapons that player acquires from doing Odyssey content or from persona weapons from Royalty.
They are not craftable, goal of this mod is to make finding even poor weapon good experience - base weapon is legendary? Get rid of maluses. Base weapon is bad? At least it has upgrades that can be used elsewhere.
Note that by default, modifying weapon can damage it (20% of it happening with maximum 20% durability loss for pawn with 0 crafting, 1% change with 1% durability loss for pawn with 20 crafting). You can turn this off in settings, but if you run any repair or mend mod, it is suggested you leave this on.
Requirements
Machining needs to be researched to modify normal weapons, Machine Persuasion to modify persona weapons. You do need machining table for either.
If you turn off requirements for research, you can do either at crafting spot.
On stacking
In vanilla, unique weapn can generate with maximum of three traits (and persona weapons with maximum of two traits). Mod will not change this, but you can up the amount of traits that can be installed.
Rules that prevent generating weird weapons are being observed thou - you can not give weapon two scopes or have both tox and fire bullets.

Mod compatibility
Will work with mods that add new traits or new unique weapon types.
Adding to game should be safe, but removing is not.
