if the spread is a cross with some variation it would look like those patterns

the question is, why would you make the spread like that and not just a circle? maybe to make the shotgun a little more effective as it would prefer to hit the torso, limbs, and head at close range? only reason outside the obvious that i can think of. though someone digging through the code/files could confirm if the spread is actually based on a swastika

That makes sense. My money is on it being a cross, (because the optimal spread for damage is a very tall cross) with inaccuracy being a product of distance from origin to prevent the frustration of missing every pellet of your shot. This would result in the average distribution of pellets looking like a cross potent, which has a chance of looking like a swastika. I don't think this was intentional now that I think about it more.
