I suggest looking at the DarkStorm lasers and making the lasgun/laspistol
First of all, this is a very professional community.
We don't just steal other people's mods. :]
We ask first.
ohmygodlol
I'm not saying "rip them off 100%". I'm saying "Darlos has pretty awesome lasers that look a bit more like lasers right now compared to the current las weapons, which just shoot very fast red bullets. Looking at how he does it could help improve the las weapons".
Sure, ask first, but there's no point reinventing the wheel if it can be avoided.

Also, asklar said it himself, he's not going to be doing alot with this, if anything.
I'm aware - I was referring to Kettenkrad's offer of help mostly, assuming that goes anywhere.

You can learn, just look around in mod making.
QFT. It can look daunting at first, that's why there are plenty of tutorials. Start with, say, tweaking your favourite guns first. Examine bits of code here and there, try giving a gun the ability to swap between two types of ammo using the pie menu or something. Work your way up towards actors and such from there.
For example, I've been experimenting with some tweaks to this very mod that add an armour-piercing shells option (for those rare enemies that are immune or highly resilient to the standard explosive shells) to the four bolters, using the Coalition Grenade Launcher ammo swapping scripts and new round/magazine types.
