Some people have implemented the realistic blueprint weapons but its not easy. I feel the firing mechanics are encapsulated well enough where if you wanted to change how the tracelines worked you could, but if you wanted something like ballistics over multiple frames, that might get pretty involved and definitely not easy.

I know it works up to 32, haven’t tried pushing the engine beyond that.

Dedicated servers are a bit more involved, especially with Steam. As a 100% blueprint asset I can’t do much to help you ‘out of the box’, but I’m hoping to have tutorials about this soon. The beginning of this can be found here: How To Set Up Dedicated Servers for Windows and Linux For Your UE4 Game (using Windows) and can be applied to any UE4 project.

My system doesn’t have any restrictions regarding if its an indoor or outdoor scene. Any issues you have will be the issues that anyone making a large scale game would experience.

There is a lot of stuff I want to do prior to release

Generic Shooter just hit 1000 units sold on the UE4 marketplace! Huzzah!

Congrats, good work and well earned!
