Enemy weapons.... is this a bug?

Post » Mon Oct 25, 2010 11:09 am

I wasn't sure which forum to post this in because I don't know if it's a bug, or if it's the way it was intended. Anyways....



I noticed that enemies will quite often have 2 of the same weapon. For example, if I kill a Raider who has an assault rifle, sometimes he'll drop the assault rifile on the ground, but still also have one in his inventory, allowing me to collect two of them.

It seems unlikely to me that this is the way it was intended to be. I can understand the concept of having a backup weapon, but it's a bit strange when a raider drops something like a sledgehammer, and then has another one on his corpse.

Is this normal, or am I experiencing a bug? Does anyone know of a mod that prevents enemies from having duplicate weapons?

As I am aware it is pretty normal (one of the said raiders mates could drop a weapon and he\she will pick it up)

It is not normal for a raider to have two copies of the same weapon. It is, as said, normal for them to collect dropped weapons so one raider could end up with all the weapons.

Normally, if a raider drops a weapon it will appear on the ground and still be listed in their inventory, but if you collect it from the ground it is removed from their inventory and if you take it from their inventory it disappears from the ground.
