Modding a variety of guns into Barotrauma

Right now, I am trying to direct and create mods for a game called Barotrauma. The scripting is pretty straightforward, it is in XML but there is a LUA for it as well (which may or may not be better?) I can help with the coding though my own knowledge in scripting is not perfect. Anyhow, right now, I am looking to partner with someone to create a gun set mod that will add about 50 or so new guns with their own magazines and a variety of ammunition to the game that will directly work with a economy mod I have already worked on. The process itself is rather straightforward and most of the work is going to be copy pasting template code and editing values to differentiate the items. (This includes accurate gun recoil and reload animations where applicable.) I will attach below an image with an example of a gun, a magazine and the specific ammunition used in it. I am currently working with an artist and have some photoshop skills myself, so you wouldn’t have to worry about sprites or visuals, just the coding and integrating of sprites. The ultimate aim is to create a excellent mod and so I am not just looking for a coder but someone who can also work with me on a conceptual level. That means help thinking through the design process and taking initiative too, of course I reserve the right to final decision. If this is a gig that interests you, I’d love to talk. Let me know what you think is a fair price for your time and efforts as well as the ETA of delivery. I will walk you through the further details and intricacies of the job afterwards.
