How it works
The system monitors weapon usage and applies a chance for a jam to occur.
When triggered:
The weapon will jam
The player must take action (depending on setup) before continuing
All logic runs in the background and is handled automatically.
Configuration (How to adjust settings)
The system is designed to be simple to tweak.
Settings can be adjusted directly in the script:
Open the relevant AOTOW jam component file
Locate the configurable variables (such as jam chance or conditions)
Adjust the values to fit your server or gameplay style
If you want to extend functionality, use overrides instead of modifying the core system.
