Rimworld Run And Gun Combat Extended |verified| 【QUICK • COLLECTION】

When combining RunAndGun with Combat Extended (CE), you are merging two of the most impactful tactical mods in

. This combination turns the often static "cover-to-cover" combat into a fluid, high-intensity firefight where positioning is as lethal as the ammunition itself. Mod Synergies & Mechanics

Tactical Mobility: RunAndGun allows drafted pawns to shoot while moving, but at the cost of accuracy and speed. In Combat Extended, where suppression and ammo management are vital, being able to retreat while laying down cover fire is a literal lifesaver.

Suppression Management: Under CE, pawns being shot at will hunker down. Using RunAndGun allows you to keep an enemy suppressed with a light machine gun while your flankers move into position without stopping their own fire. Ammo Weigh-in

: Movement speed is heavily influenced by the weight and bulk system in rimworld run and gun combat extended

. A pawn with RunAndGun enabled will move even slower while firing, making light loadouts (SMGs, Carbines) much more viable for "kiting" strategies. Suggested Loadouts for This Combo

The Skirmisher: Equipped with a high-capacity SMG (like the P90 or MP5) and light armor. Use RunAndGun to bait melee enemies into open ground while backpedaling.

The Pointman: Heavy armor and a shotgun. Ideal for aggressive room clearing where you don't want to stop moving when turning corners.

Covering Fire Specialist: An LMG wielder who can stay just behind your frontline, moving forward to keep up with the push while maintaining a steady stream of suppression. Essential Tips for Success When combining RunAndGun with Combat Extended (CE) ,

Watch the Accuracy: CE makes shooting much more realistic; firing while running will tank your hit chance. Only use it for suppression or against massive targets (like Centipedes) unless your pawn has high Shooting skill.

Toggle Is Key: Don't leave RunAndGun on by default. Use the hotkey to disable it once you reach high-quality cover to regain your full CE aim bonuses.

Check Compatibility: Ensure you are using the 1.5 (or latest) version of RunAndGun and that it is loaded after HugsLib to avoid UI glitches during combat. RunAndGun [1.5] - Steam Workshop

Combat Extended Settings

• Enable ammo system: Yes (this is CE's core)
• Suppression while moving: Keep default (moving pawns are less suppressed, but still vulnerable)
• Friendly fire: Keep at 75% – moving fire increases accident risk

---

Known Behaviors (CE Specific)

• Pistols & SMGs – Best for run-and-gun (low recoil, fast handling)
• LMGs / HMGs – Nearly useless while moving (accuracy drops to <10%)
• Shotguns – Moderate effectiveness; tight spread becomes erratic
• Sniper rifles – You can move-shoot, but don’t (effective range drops massively)
• Melee – Not affected (Run and Gun only affects ranged)

Toggle Options (Mod Settings)

Inside Run and Gun mod settings (in-game → Options → Mod Settings):

• Enable Run and Gun (global on/off)
• Enemy AI can run and gun (recommend OFF with CE – AI can’t handle ammo suppression well)
• Moving accuracy multiplier (default 0.5) – CE patch overrides this partially
• Ammo consumption rate while moving (CE adds +25% ammo use if moving & firing – adjustable in CE ammo settings)
