Wait a minute, either I got this whole thing totally wrong, or something's fishy in "items.xml".
Take <Handling> for instance: Reading the post and checking the existing weapons, I was under the impression that it was a handicap, smaller value means more precise, bigger less precise.
Now check the stance modifiers for the "Combat Knife" (item #37):
<STAND_MODIFIERS>
<PercentHandling>10</PercentHandling>
<PercentMaxCounterForce>-10</PercentMaxCounterForce>
<PercentCounterForceAccuracy>-10</PercentCounterForceAccuracy>
</STAND_MODIFIERS>
<CROUCH_MODIFIERS />
<PRONE_MODIFIERS /> 
BTW same applies to the "KCB Knife" (#594), but not to other handheld knifes.
On the contrary, the "Rocket Rifle" (#55) is more precise when you're standing:
<STAND_MODIFIERS>
<PercentHandling>-10</PercentHandling>
<PercentMaxCounterForce>30</PercentMaxCounterForce>
<PercentCounterForceAccuracy>30</PercentCounterForceAccuracy>
</STAND_MODIFIERS>
<CROUCH_MODIFIERS />
<PRONE_MODIFIERS>
<PercentHandling>0</PercentHandling>
<PercentMaxCounterForce>0</PercentMaxCounterForce>
<PercentCounterForceAccuracy>0</PercentCounterForceAccuracy>
</PRONE_MODIFIERS>
(Same setting also applies for the "Auto Rocket Rifle" (#65), and a number of normal assault rifles (too meany to list), but not all.
Inconsistency is all over the "items.xml" file. Let's take two sniper rifles of same caliber, which conveniently are adjacent in the file:
The "DSR-1" (#639), and the "SR-100" (#640).
The first has this:
<STAND_MODIFIERS>
<PercentHandling>20</PercentHandling>
</STAND_MODIFIERS>
<CROUCH_MODIFIERS />
<PRONE_MODIFIERS>
<PercentHandling>-75</PercentHandling>
<PercentMaxCounterForce>70</PercentMaxCounterForce>
<PercentCounterForceAccuracy>30</PercentCounterForceAccuracy>
</PRONE_MODIFIERS>
One might think that one has been translated to NCTH and the other not, but no, they both have a <Handling> tag (12 and 13). It's just one is way more precise when prone.
Enough about weapons, now here is a really astonishing attachment, the "Sniper Suppressor" (#592): Not only does it reduce noise, it also makes a rifle slightly more precise and seems to affect burst recoil - But only when standing!
<STAND_MODIFIERS>
<PercentHandling>-3</PercentHandling>
<PercentMaxCounterForce>20</PercentMaxCounterForce>
<PercentCounterForceAccuracy>10</PercentCounterForceAccuracy>
</STAND_MODIFIERS>
<CROUCH_MODIFIERS />
<PRONE_MODIFIERS />
What gives? Have I missed something, or do I start a huge "items.xml" cleanup?
