Contact CBA JointRails Compatibility

[NorXAengell]

Could you add Contact weapons to use CBA JointRails classes.

I'll never understand why people don't just make a pull request, but instead go to the effort to make a full sub-mod that does the same.

Yeah, now I am stuck here unable to look at the code, because the workshop doesn't work for me and I never used it before.

Also, isn't this the same as #1190?

No, that one is for magwells and this one is for rails.

And where's the difference? Practically I mean?

[jonpas]

That you need to add different classes? 🤔

@NorXAengell
I checked ingame and the Promet ("contact weapon") can use all base game items.

If you have a 3rd party mod that has optics that are incompatible with the weapon, then that is because the Promet uses the MuzzleSlot_65 and CowsSlot_MSBS65 attachment classes. That 3rd party mod author has to add their optics to those classes as well as the CBA JR classes.

The addon you posted (from the Steam side) in fact breaks all addons that correctly add their attachments to the MuzzleSlot_65 etc. class and don't bother with CBA.

The issue is basically the same as this: #1258 (comment), except that these weapons are obviously not covered by the legacy component.
