Upgraded Gun Names - Borderlands-like gun names! 1.0.1

Overhauls the gun naming system. No more gibberish names!

  1. Battle Bee
    [​IMG]

    Starbound's weapon name generation system has gotten much better since the beta. However, it's still lacking, with nonsense names such as "Pixeltosser", "Perfectplugger", "Howlpump", "Psigun", "Moonphaser", etc.
    Not only that, but there are only 8 possible prefixes for these names! If you're wondering why you keep seeing the words "Teklacki" and "Rotix" on your guns, it's because there's a severely low variety in terms of prefixes.

    This mod is here to fix that, by improving the name generation with coherent and sensible words!

    (Some of the text you see here will be repeated twice. This is so that people using brighter/darker forum styles can read stuff. Decided to go with this because yes.)

    Currently, this mod only affects ranged weaponry. I might be doing a melee version in the future!

    So how does it work?
    So how does it work?

    Each gun type - that is sniper rifles, shotguns, pistols, etc. now has 40 available prefixes and 20 available nouns - that's 800 possible, unique names for each gun type!
    All words that have been chosen to fit that gun type. Some are serious, some are silly, but all of them are fun.

    A lot of inspiration was taken from the Borderlands and Borderlands 2 weapon naming systems! If you're familiar with these games, you might enjoy this mod.

    Can I see all the prefixes and nouns?
    Can I see all the prefixes and nouns?

    Sure you can! Or you can choose to surprise yourself by not knowing any of them - the choice is yours.

    Amazing I'm a big fan of borderlands so this MOD is like the salt and pepper and other delicious spices on my steak.

    Any mod that both removes the silliness AND is inspired by Borderlands is worth every star.
