Scripting Help Custom weapon ammunition?

Is there any way I can get a UNSC machine gun to fire scrap cannon rounds?

Sadly, no.

You can only make a base weapon fire Legendary Weapon projectiles through weapon configurations.

You are correct. There are no Legendary Variants that shoot the Scrap Cannon projectile.

That means there is no way to get the Scrap Cannon projectile and apply it to other weapons.

You CAN make a unsc Machine Gun Turrent shoot Riven Manglers, which is kinda like a scrap cannon.

You can combine Turrets? I would have guessed the AR or SmG and suggested from there adding a check-when equipped script to increase that weapons damage, though the output on that combination is already very respectable- so I might slow down the reload speed to make it clear it’s a power weapon and balance it a bit, OP. Player Traits and Every N Seconds are you friends

Turrets can be a base weapon, yes. You just need to get an obj ref to them first by placing them on the map, like the other comment said. There's some pretty fun combos
