[DLTX] Luna's Master Disassembly List & Parts Fix v1.6.0
Sick and tired of finding gear that you can't disassemble? Wish you could replace the parts on your partless rare guns? Me too, so I fixed em.
The Master Disassembly List
When it comes to addons that add new weapons or outfits, it's inevitable that you'll find a few guns or outfits that you simply cannot disassemble, and this can be rather frustrating when it's a rather common item like an AK74-U or cheap gas mask. Thankfully for us all, I've already taken the time to go through the available weapons and add all the missing parts, letting you disassemble any and all weapons and outfits (Gauss rifle excluded for the time being).
The MDL includes the "Helmet Parts BaS" addon by Drathalis by default since this addon overwrites the same file. I absolutely love their addon, and it's what inspired me to actually create my own addon. Since we both modify the same file, I've included their changes to helmet parts with my addon so we can use both addons at once.
I personally use this with the "Weapon Parts Overhaul" addon by artifax. Their addition of the field stripping mechanic makes it easier to maintain rare weapons like the P90, letting you hot swap parts out as needed for individual repairs instead of either paying absurd prices at the mechanic or having to find and disassemble a second rare weapon solely for the parts.
The Parts Fix
The Parts Fix is a second aspect of the MDL that swaps around some of the weapon parts that may have been added with incorrect parts, like a magazine-fed sniper that uses a bolt carrier designed for magazine-less shotguns; addons that add a duplicate weapon with different parts than their counterpart, or just to match an ingame gun's parts with the real one. Weapons with the same base name should have the same or similar parts, with parts changing if it matches the lore of the weapon.
I've changed the major issues with some of B&S's weapons having interesting part combinations, as well as a few others that stuck out to me. I've also gone through and added brand new custom parts to weapons that didn't have appropriate parts, including the Gauss Gun. Over time I'll go through and inspect more weapons to see if their parts make sense or not and make updates as needed.
DLTX!
The addon has now been given the DLTX treatment and is available as a second version for those who want it. Upsides of the DLTX version means that if you no longer have to choose between this addon's parts or the ones for another weapon overhaul. It also should hopefully future-proof this addon for any updates from currently supported addons and other weapon additions, assuming they add their own parts. If they don't, I'll just have to add them myself!
The Normal version of the addon exists for those who are curious and want to look into the actual formatting and edits I've done and for those who don't have or don't want to use DLTX. Do keep in mind that should any supported addons get updated, this addon may need to be updated to stay compatible with any new items.
Installation
Mod Organizer 2 is required to use the FOMOD installer.
- Follow the installer's instructions

Suggestions? Questions?
Have an addon that you want supported by the MDL? Have a recommendation of a gun you want fixed in the Parts Fix? Leave a comment with the name of the addon/gun, and I'll see about getting it included. My end goal is to support as many addons as possible, so please send me as many as you want!
