CompOversizedWeapon

Gist

Make your weapons look bigger when equipped!

In unmodded RimWorld the drawSize value in graphicData in ThingDef does not apply to equipped weapons. This component forces RimWorld to use the drawSize you select for your weapon.

Example Component (Use this!)

Here is an XML example (parts have been removed with <...>s) of a simple weapon with a working drawSize due to adding CompOversizedWeapon to its list of <comps>.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Defs>
   ...
  <ThingDef ParentName="BaseWeaponNeolithic">
    <defName>LotRE_Bow_Galadhrim</defName>
    <label>galadhrim-elf bow</label>
    <graphicData>
      ...
      <drawSize>1.5</drawSize>
    </graphicData>
    ...
    <comps>
      <li Class="CompOversizedWeapon.CompProperties_OversizedWeapon">
      </li>
    </comps>
    ...
  </ThingDef>

</Defs>

Advanced Example (For fancy graphic manipulation!)

    <description>A true weapon to match the Elves. A tall curved yet slender blade with a hilt decorated with precious metals. Useful for graceful sweeping strikes.</description>

Explained Lightly

::Note:: Characters that use this component do not use the lifestage graphics. Here is the current list of parameters in CompOversized.CompProperties_OversizedWeapon and what they do.

• northOffset - Sets with three values, (x, y, z). This setting adjusts the position of the weapon graphic when equipped by a character facing the north.
• eastOffset - Same as northOffset, but for the east.
• southOffset - "
• westOffset - "
• verticalFlipNorth - When set, this will turn the weapon's graphic turn 180 degrees when the character is facing north.
• angleAdjustmentWest - When facing west, this is the number of degrees the weapon's graphic will be rotated.
• angleAdjustmentEast - The same will happen as with the angle adjustment for the west, except when the character faces the east.
• angleAdjustmentNorth - "
• angleAdjustmentSouth - "
• verticalFlipOutsideCombat - When set to true, outside combat, the weapon's graphic is turned 180 degrees.
• isDualWeapon - When set to true, the weapon's graphic is duplicated to give the illusion of two weapons being equipped at the same time.
