I'm looking for some assistance in Archetyping and providing Readable Alternate Names to all the Weapons of Squad. All further discussion can happen in: #weapon-discussion in the MySquadStats Discord.
There are currently 4,833 Weapons in the MySquadStats Database. (My list will include weapons from Galactic Contention and other Mods that would also have to be accounted for)
In terms of SquadJS and MySquadStats, a Weapon is anything that a Player has been wounded and/or killed by. There are some odd ones that pop up such as wreckages of vehicles being a weapon.
I would like to keep classifications and naming as close to Vanilla as possible, Galactic Contention being an exception obviously. I'm pointing towards a SquadWiki article for some reference as far as Archetyping: https://squad.fandom.com/wiki/Weapons#Weapon_Archetypes I would like to keep the list of all Archetypes as low as possible while still covering all options adequately.
Getting Weapon Names done will make this tab on each Player's Stat page more readable: https://mysquadstats.com/search/76561199482222969#weaponStats Getting Weapon Archetypes will allow for adding Ribbons based on Weapon classes.
The JSON of all the MySquadStats Weapons and the data that needs to be filled is here: https://github.com/Ignis-Bots/MSS-Weapons You are welcome to work on this and create Pull Requests to submit your work.
