Author Topic: Raycast laser cannon  (Read 1249 times)

Its your basic overpowered one-hit cannon, except It has some MAJOR exceptions:


1: If you're holding it you get a slower playertype that cant jump

2: When you fire, theres no knockback but it hurts you by 5%

3: The raycast fires THROUGH things, giving piercing damage

4: chargetime.

5: The raycast has an emmitter, so it appears as if a "Laser" has been shot at lightspeed

Haha someone has been playing to much James Bond Nightfire...this is the closest thing we have to that:

Or maybe the FKT20 plasma cannon:

Hope you like them, but don't think that anyone is going to be jumping at this idea...

^Neither of those are any good at all.^

Plasma is, and who are you to talk never seen you release anything...I am just trying to help him, so don't down the add-ons if you can't even make one...

That loving plasma cannon is one of my least favorite of all the rediculous gun add-ons.

Reiterating on Xoax's post,

Both of the weapons are extremely powerful (e.g. OVEPOWERED) and the fact that AffGuy always releases his weapons without a weapon icon which in turn makes it disadvantageous to the player.

You realise neither of those do anything that he asked at all right? Neither of them even fire a laser. :/

Why not just have a projectile so it is easier to make a laser and entry damage?

muahahaha

and i saw an old "vortex gun" or something like that in v9, i forget exactly what it was called, but it would make all bricks go away in a spiral pattern, and come back a while later.

Can't be done like that. You can emit particles at the start and end of it with an explosion/muzzle flash, but it's really hard to get it to appear along the line.

You could display a non-colliding laser-like model, though, from the start to the endpoint, if you hacked around vectors a lot to get the right angle for the model.

Still think it should just be a projectile.
