Additional Notes

I decided to include STW weapons as well because they share the same issue

FORT-916103 changed to ‘Needs More Info’. We’re missing information that would help us determine the source of the issue.

I’m not sure how this isn’t abundantly clear, a few seconds of looking through these weapon actors should immediately point to a very very obvious problem. The holding animation proxy table reference is set wrong on these items. This step by step guide should help you “determine the source of the issue”.

-Find the associated FortWeaponRangedItemDefinition for all items listed in this report.
-Open the referenced WeaponActorClass.
-Search “ProxyTable”.
-Every single one of these is currently using AR_PT, switch them all to Pistol_PT.

Congrats, you fixed this bug!

Grapplers were fixed a few updates ago but the rest of the list still has this issue :slightly_smiling_face:
