Weapon Swap & Drop

Drops your old weapon on the ground when swapping weapons from pickups, instead of losing it.

Weapon Swap&Drop is a lightweight gameplay enhancement that fixes a long-standing logic issue in weapon pickups.

In vanilla gameplay, when the player swaps a weapon for another one that occupies the same slot, the previously held weapon is permanently lost. This mod changes that behavior: when a weapon is replaced via a ground pickup, the old weapon is dropped on the ground at the player’s position, making weapon swaps feel more logical and immersive.

Important: These changes apply only when the player explicitly swaps weapons using the pickup action (typically Tab on keyboard or L1 on gamepad).

Weapons obtained via cheats, scripts, shops, or other non-pickup sources are intentionally ignored.

To prevent the well-known infinite-ammo issue caused by slot-based weapon swaps, all dropped weapons are spawned with 0 ammo, ensuring balanced and bug-free gameplay.

The mod is fully configurable:

Simple, safe, and lore-friendly — Weapon Swap&Drop makes weapon pickups behave the way they always should have.
