Just One or p0sition posted the lua for adding damage drop off for weapons in discord under #suggestions if you want to take a look. I and some others just feel as though shotguns should not do full pellet damage at range (like a pellet hitting for 11 from across the map assuming only 1 pellet was benefited by the spread). Maybe smgs and others, but the general idea is to allow weapons besides like snipers to do less damage at range.
