Adds wearable rifle slings for Build 42 with multiple worn poses, dual-sling support, optional two-hand melee support, and cleaner multiplayer behavior.
Model note:
This mod currently uses the same sling model basis as Noir Rifle Slings while reworking the gameplay flow around it.
What this mod does:
- Adds wearable rifle slings with visible worn models.
- Lets you wear two separate slings at the same time.
- Each sling can hold one supported weapon.
- Each sling can be adjusted between multiple visual poses while worn, including front, back, and waist-side variants.
- Sling items can spawn naturally in police, military, and gun-related loot.
What is new in this version:
- Supports wearing two slings at the same time (I limit it by 2 because using 4 sling at the same time is bad for visuals).
- Each sling can carry one weapon.
- Each sling can now be adjusted between six visual poses.
- Front and second sling systems are handled separately, so each sling can keep its own weapon and pose.
- Multiplayer request handling has been tightened so sling actions behave more reliably in MP.
- World loot spawning has been added for police, military, and selected gun loot tables.
- Added right-waist and left-waist pose variants.
What makes this version different:
- Focuses on a cleaner player workflow for Build 42 instead of only adding a single cosmetic sling.
- Lets you manage two independent sling setups instead of choosing just one carry point.
- Keeps pose switching tied to the sling itself, so repositioning the sling changes how that specific setup behaves.
- Reworks older Lua behavior with cleaner shared logic and less duplicated handling.
- Improves on older and less optimized Lua code paths that were harder to maintain and extend.
- Fixes and reduces Lua error cases found during item, tooltip, pose, attachment, and workshop testing.
- Built as a practical gameplay mod first, with room for more polish and balance tuning later.
Current scope:
- Build 42 item and hotbar integration.
- Two-sling support.
- Six pose options per sling.
- One weapon per sling.
- Police, military, and gun-store style world spawning.
- Multiplayer-safe server/client request flow for pose changes and sling actions.
Optional addon:
- A separate optional addon mod enables two-handed melee weapons on sling slots.
- Keep only the base mod enabled if you want rifle-focused sling behavior.
This is still being iterated on and may continue to receive balance, UI, and multiplayer refinements.
