i think there might be some issues with profiles not activating correctly. i've noticed this most with uniforms (the training room familiarity bonus levels applying to weapons not in my uniform) and hybrid skills (the templates in the hybrid menu not matching the templates in the profiles menu)
i have an idea for a new sword. basically it's a medium length metal cylinder that you can put gunpowder and a small projectile inside, and when you light the gunpowder, the projectile is shot out of the cylinder very fast. other than that one weird mechanic, it functions as a blunt weapon
