Summary

SUMMARY: Balance "Changes the volume and weights of the ferromagnetic rails to be more realistic."

Purpose of change

The values for the volume and weights of the rail projectiles were unrealistically high. This is a fix for issue #30750.

Describe the solution

Simply tweaked the values in the JSON to better represent the actual volume and weights of a realistically sized projectile for a handheld railgun.

Describe alternatives you've considered

None.

Additional context

Source for the volume of the projectiles is here. I used dimensions of 6mm in diameter and 76.2mm (3 inches) in length.

cyl

Using a value of roughly 2 cm^3 or 2mL, I calculated the approximate weight of these projectiles using the density of steel given here.

Nothing wrong with the PR itself, but the title was a little scary until I realized you were only adjusting one or two items. The title of the PR implies a much greater scope. Might be worth changing it.
