The following is based on Fallout: New Vegas Test Cell Content TestJoshWeapons is a test cell in the game files of Fallout: New Vegas.
Layout[edit]
The room has the same layout as the Test Cell for Traps but instead of traps, they have been replaced with "testing dummies" (raiders) standing at various distances. There is a ruler on the floor measuring the distance of in-game units, which is equivalent to approximately 33 yards.
Each "testing dummy" is rooted in place and can not move, although they turn hostile if close enough to the player character, in which they will begin punching. Each "testing dummy" has Raider Armor with a DT of 4 and 95 Hit Points.

Notes[edit]
If one is to save in TestJoshWeapons, the save file becomes corrupted due to the cell not having a location name.

- In his talk for GDC Europe 2011, Joshua Sawyer mentioned that he used this cell to run time trials for various weapons, which allowed him to catch some obvious errors with how he balanced weapons, though not all of them.[Ext 1]
