After trying to put in a flintlock musket and pistol, I have run straight into a brick wall. My original plan was to replace the bullet ammunition type for... gun bullets... and heavy crossbow with a flintlock musket and the sling with a flintlock pistol. But Unfortunately, I discovered that I cannot switch the ammunition type of the heavy crossbow to use bullets no matter what I do. It will either use bolts or won't work at all.
Now while I can still replace the heavy crossbow with the flintlock musket and make it use bolts as a separate ammunition from the bullets anyways, the issue with doing it that way is that shooting a wooden stick out of a gun is not very fun at all. Not only that, but it would use the same sound effect as the original bolt. I could switch the bolt over to use more bullet-like attributes, but that would mean the light crossbow would also be shooting bullets!
And so, through this frustration, I thought perhaps replacing both crossbows or both bows instead would prove to be a better idea. This way, we would have two separate weapons using the same ammunition type and still have all proper sounds, projectile models, etc. Personally, I would choose to have both bows replaced since they seem so inferior technology-wise but I put up a poll for you guys to decide.
