does durability correspond to the gun condition?
If durability meant condition, it would say "Condition". Durability means exactly that: How durable the weapon is. A weapon with high durability will degrade slowly. A weapon with low durability will degrade quickly. This is explained in the readme.The value displayed for Durability is 100.0 - Reliability->Degrade Rate (%). So Durability: 99% means the weapon has a Degrade Rate of 1, and will degrade by 1% every shot.
Like it or not, in literally every other game that exists with item degredation, "durability" means the items current health.
I would just use "Degredation Rate" and not display Durability at all.
You cannot have Durability with a completely different definition and expect people to understand.
Oh but I can, because the definition I'm using is WHAT THE WORD ACTUALLY MEANS. Just because a bunch of semi-literate ESL game developers decided to use "durability" to mean "condition" doesn't make anyone beholden to that. Durability means "the ability to withstand wear, pressure, or damage". It does NOT mean how damaged something currently is. That's as weird as if someone decided to call hit points "endurance".
