Huge thanks for lordician and Taboo for helping the fixing efforts.

Riotshield not being able to be picked up after being ungrounded because of: "Item not part of minigame"

Riotshield blocks explosions and lowers the radius impulse from the explosion.

Too much knockback (needs feedback, not sure how much it needed to be nerfed)

Zombies or other melee attack bots which use the new default bot system can hit through the shield, ignoring the shield completely. (Found this while testing fixes, is now fixed. :D)


A lot of people have been asking for this to be re-toasted.

So here it is. It works fine, apart from a couple bugs that prevent me from posting it on RTB.
If you find any extra bugs, let me know.

It's features;

1. Blocks bullets in-front of the player when equipped
2. When not equipped, but in the inventory, blocks bullets from behind
3. Can be planted into the ground with a right click, and picked up again.
4. Is a melee weapon in itself. It does very low damage to players and knocks them backwards.

That's really cool how you can plant it, would be useful for teaming against a sentry.

You know, have one person plant it and draw its attention, another guy takes it out from afar.

Neet, I remember this from way back

People used to box me in, throw flak grenades in the opening, and watched me suffer.

I have a download link on mediafire that's nearly as old as this, do you want me to remove it?

I don't care, I just made this topic as a "offical" place if you will.
This way I have control over it if I choose to update it. Which I will be updating this.

is it still totally invulnerable, or was that a different one i have in mind?

The wearer is protected from bullets. Can still be damaged by explosive effects such as rockets or spears.


Red areas mark where the player is still vulnerable.

If people want the shield to have a limited health, i can make one like that too.


How did you make the shield block bullets? Just a collision box on the DTS model?

yesssssss
being able to drop riot shields is amazing.

but yeah they should have a damage limit.

Can you bash people in the face with it?

I like how its invulnerable
because i can't host c:

Yes.

The model bears no collision mesh.
All the magic is in the script.

EDIT:

I have added a poll. I will let the community decide the update.
