    Is there a way to make a gun cycle from an assault rifle to a sniper, then a grenade launcher, and back to an assault rifle? It would switch when you right click and change sprites, and make a sound. Is it possible?

    i don't think that's possible but i clearly see a Vanquish reference comming

    I've never heard of Vanquish until now so no. But I wanted to make a DC-17M blaster rifle from Star Wars.

    Could I replace it with something else every time I right click?

    I don't think this possible, you would have to modify the player's inventory for that

    Is there a way to make a backpack thing be a jetpack? Or at least give you a jump boost effect?

    i know the devs at one point tried to add a techModule element to armors to give the special tech abilities, but it doesn't work in the current stable build, it might work in nightly but i don't think it's possible without a tech,
    what you could do though, is if the jump boost is a actual effect like glow, tared, burning, poisoned and what ever, just add the effect name in the status effect array of the backpak
    eg:
    Code:
    "statusEffects" : [
        {
          "stat" : "powerMultiplier",
          "baseMultiplier" : 1.2
        },
    
        {
          "stat" : "protection",
          "amount" : 2
        },
    
        {
          "stat" : "maxEnergy",
          "amount" : 2
        },
    
        {
          "stat" : "maxHealth",
          "amount" : 2
        },
        "glow"
      ],

    Thanks, I figured it out. But I didn't think about the power level of the effect so this should help.

    I took the xenon pack files and replaced the xenonglow status effect with jumpboost. Now I can change the rest of the stuff to make it look like a jetpack.

    Ok, this thing really doesn't relate to modding, but for some reason whenever I start up starbound now it pops up with this

    I have no idea why. I tried taking out my mod stuff but it doesn't change. Is there any way to fix it?

    Pick apart the adaptable crossbow that would give you what you want.
