T2 Cog Weapons Pack

Description
A custom weapons pack, but for the baddies!


Despite the T2 weapons supposedly being based off of Cog designs (Ex: The Marshal), the Cogs don't actually use anything similar. Indeed, the primary weapons the Cogs gain at T2 are the Hand Mortar and the SMG. This pack gives them their own examples of the Mauser, Marshal, and LMG, tuned to T2 stats. The weapons' stats are modified along the lines of the player's own T2 weapons relative to their earlier or later counterparts.

Specifically:
In all applications where T2 or T3 Cogs of Blue, Green, or Blacks types would spawn with a revolver, they spawn with a Cog Mauser instead. The Cog Mauser is based on the T1 Cog revolver but fires twice as fast out of a 10-shot magazine. That's it.
T2 Green and Black Cogs will often spawn with Enfield Rifles instead of SMGs. Enfield Rifles are nerfed snipers. They have shorter range, reduced damage, and worse accuracy but they do benefit from a greater rate of fire.
T2 Black cogs and T3 Black cogs in the T2 underground may occasionally be equipped with Cog LMGs, though theoretically less often than they will sport Rifles, SMGs, or Tesla guns. The Cog LMG is a roundly nerfed Gatling gun (sporting only a single water cooled barrel) which is nonetheless capable of large amounts of damage if allowed to close the range.

This pack does not affect Refinery cogs (who, in fairness, usually have the least valuable loot and are more defined by what they don't use than by what they do).

Should be compatible with other mods which use drillship crew modifiers, though I haven't checked exhaustively to be sure. I know it is compatible with the Cog Giant mod. If installed new on an existing save, it will take 1 eruption cycle before the new cog types start spawning.

Looks like some of the cogs can't be looted. Maybe mod conflict, or i don't know...

Appreciate it! Let me know if you run into issues, it looks like the recent update broke at least one of my other mods.
