This is error?  
DEBUG : ammo type puntshot has invalid default ammo punt\_shot\_basic

FUNCTION : static void ammunition\_type::check\_consistency()  
FILE : src/ammo.cpp  
LINE : 69

Fix is simple, on your file punt\_shot\_ammo, the ID of the item is shot\_punt\_basic, when should be punt\_shot\_basic. An easy overlook error, I would find this a lot happen to me when I started my first mods.

Game normally tells what is broken, this one can be tricky it doesn’t say why the error, just throws error. Mainly happens on multiple entries of items in other places, ammo is big cause of this.

Alternate shots are simple, just remember not to change ammo id on both file ammo and ammo\_type, or game will throw the error. Recipe are hard, but follow simple pattern as item entry. When large amounts of items exist in mod, spawn lists become new nightmare.

Punt-Gun… that same gun used by our old man from the times where shooting 100 duck with a single shot was a normal, possible hunting…

now with this gun… one can tell a story of a man being poured by bloods and body parts outta nowhere.
