But I can't find it on the wiki. Does anyone know where I could find it?

... Also, is there one for the rate at which shotguns lose damage? >_>

I'm pretty sure it's 5 points of damage per space away.

I'm pretty sure it's not, because shotguns aren't useless past melee range. That, and I know the Combat shotty decays less badly and the SSG decays more badly than the shotgun. It's likely based exponentially.

It might be 5% over a space.  And I'm fairly sure the reason that Combat Shotties seem to decay less is because they have a tighter spread, but that's my humble opinion.

Shotguns

Damage := Max( Roll * (1.0 - Reduce * Max( 1, DistanceToTarget )), 1 );

Reduce values for common shotguns:
Normal 0.07
Double 0.1
Assault 0.05

ToHit:

ToHit := Item.ToHit;
if target is running then Decrement ToHit by 4
if (SpecialRoll( 10 + toHit - (distanceToTarget div 3 ) + iToHit) >= 0) then Target is hit.

Special Roll is :
function Roll( Value );
begin
  DieRoll := Dice(3,6);
  case DieRoll of
      3 : Exit(30);
      4 : Exit(20);
     17 : Exit(-20);
     18 : Exit(-30);
  end;
  Roll := Value - DieRoll;
end;

Yeah, simple ;]
