Editing Modding (section)

== Reference: weapon stats ==

New weapons are added in <code>gml_GlobalScript_bStatInitLevel1</code> by copying an existing weapon's block. Increment <code>gunnum</code> (<code>gunnum += 1</code>) above every new weapon.

Most stats are arrays of two values: <code>[gunnum][0]</code> applies '''without gem high''', <code>[gunnum][1]</code> '''with gem high''' (typically slightly stronger).
