About the PR

Increases the shell capacity of Shotgun Shell Dispensers from 12 to 30, to match with their weight.

Why / Balance

The capacity of shotgun shell dispensers is significantly less efficient than either storing the shells raw in your backpack (1:1), or inside of shell drum magazines (1:1.6), or even inside of Survival Boxes.

I think dispensers should be an efficient method of storing shotgun shells, as they're boxes specifically meant for storing those shells. It being a 1:1 ratio for organization seems reasonable, if only because of the parallel between them and Survival Boxes.

AN alternative would be reducing the weight to 20, and bringing the capacity up to match, or going down to 12-12. The reason for that would be avoiding excessive ammo storage by individual people buying it from the Libertyvend, though ultimately the price of shotgun shells from that vendor is negligible, so all this would do is increase the total stock of shells within the vendor.

TLDR: Even if the price of shell dispensers within the Libertyvend was tripled to over-match the new capacity, it would still be the entirely negligible price of $666.

Technical details

.yml change.

this feels recent, i recall the boxes holding more than 8. although, 30 is a bit much as well, i like the 20 or even 16 would be better

Updated to 20 capacity, 20 weight for a nice round number.
