Non-Lethal Weapons

# NonLethalWeapons
A RimWorld mod by Abaddon16. Does what it says on the tin. Updated for 1.2, should support 1.0 and 1.1 (worked on my machine sooooooo). I want to get back into updating this and expanding it a bit, but with my degree, work, life, and an impending career change... it's been hectic.

### Disclaimer
This mod is in development. There are some WIP items (Pepper Spray) that are in no way balanced or even fully implemented yet. It might work, but it also might not.

## Summary
This is a mod intended to solve one issue - the inability to knock a colonist out without doing major damage. You have a colonist on a rampage and they are about to break your cooler in the summer but you don't have any healroot? These non-lethal weapons will be your saving grace.

## Items

### Tranquilizer Gun
If you don't care about the catharsis buff, but can't manage to withstand the mental breaks and beatdown that would need to occur to get them straight again, the tranquilizer gun is your friend. There is almost no downside (currently) to using the tranquilizer gun on anything - except mechanoids, it straight up does not work. The base body size of the target is taken into account - it takes more darts to drop a thrumbo than a colonist. However, you can kill someone with this if you continue to shoot them past unconsciousness, so beware.

### Bean Bag Shotgun
This gun will eventually kill someone but your Pawn may die of hunger first. This weapon does super low blunt damage but is known to amplify the effects of pain due to the beanbag impact hyper-sensitiszing the nerves. The impact will proportionally slow down smaller Pawns more than big Pawns. The "Pain" stat won't go up much, but every hit from there on will be make it go up more than normal. Eventually, a single punch will likely knock someone out, if the beanbags don't do it first
