I am aware that the Fast Shot trait gives you a "hidden" bonus of +5 to total damage per attack. Likewise, Heavy Handed gives you a "hidden" +2 to damage with unarmed attacks. However, in the same conditional this piece of code remains:
if(attack.Attacker.Trait[TRAIT_ONE_HANDER] != 0 && (!valid(realWeapon) || FLAG(realWeapon.Flags, ITEM_TWO_HANDS)))
totalDmg += 5;
It appears what this was aiming for was for one handed weapons to give another "hidden" +5 bonus to damage per attack - but the condition suggests the opposite. For example, I rolled a character with both Fast Shot and One Hander with the intention of making a one-handed gunslinger, but when I used the BB gun against the rats in the tent quest, I was doing an abnormally high amount of damage. Later I confirmed this on a bluesuit with no toughness perks that the BB gun with a base damage of 8-13 and no ammo modifiers was doing 18-23 damage purely from the two traits. The -40% accuracy hit was still in place.
TL;DR, the +5 damage bonus intended for One Hander users applies to two-handed weapons only, and this strikes me as a bug. Might I suggest a strategically placed exclamation point?

huh?> whatr u tryin 2 say brother? these boys no what theyre doin man this is a fine game and id aprieciatie it if u didnt go around sayin stuff 2 slander them just becuz you thank ur funny and the best internet TROLL (ur not( ur no larry my friend but listen brother you com around here agin talkin that sh***** and u see laryfan ingame ur gona get a good SOUTHERN A$$ WHOOPIN u fell me brother? thasnk you

its a feature

I'd rather remove this piece of code because it looks like an obvious bug or some stupid idea.
-
Oh, I have no doubt that it's an obvious bug. In fact, we established that in my first post. As for it being a stupid idea, consider the following:
Two-handed weapons generally have superior range to one-handed weapons.
Two-handed weapons generally have superior damage to one-handed weapons.
Two-handed weapons generally have superior magazine capacity to one-handed weapons.
The Fast Shot trait all but ensures that two-handed weapons generally take the same AP to single shot as one-handed weapons do.
Could it be that maybe, just maybe - whoever haphazardly shoved this code in was trying to give one handed gunslingers a leg up against obviously superior weaponry? Food for thought.

Agreed with Mars on this.

Makes sense, at least P90 bursters would be useful, again.

What could it possibly hurt to give one-handers the trait as it reads? A buff for the underpowered wouldn't be the end of the world.

You guys serious?
Obvious bug is obvious deal with it.
No boost needed. Seriously guys get a grip on common sense.

In case you couldn't tell Perteks, the bug seems to be that the code for the extra +5 damage was put in for two-handed weapons on the one-hander perk, rather than for one-handed weapons. A small typo with a missing exclamation mark.
The effect's existence on the other hand was intended by the 2238 developers from what I can tell, much like Fast Shot's hidden +5 damage bonus and Heavy Handed's hidden +2 melee damage bonus.
There is nothing at all wrong with wanting a tiny buff (not that this is even a change, but a fix to a bug in the code) to the One-Hander perk (and one-handed weapons in general by association) considering how useless it is currently.

Just tested on my one-hander character.
Was shooting my slaves with BB Gun (2-handed weapon) and Mauser (1-handed).
Both weapons have 8-13 as base damage, both ammo modifiers are the same.
With BB Gun i was able to do ~5 dmg more than with mouser.
I expect after fixing this bug Mouser and BB Gun should do the same amount of damage in this test.

Was fixed.
