Change in removing cells from energy weapons - MrMagolor - 10-17-2018

You should be able to remove power cells from guns by screwdrivering them, then clicking them with an empty hand while it's in another.

Not only would this make extracting cells from guns (namely artguns) easier, it would also make it harder to have reserve power cells that you can instantly switch to in combat.

This could also progress into a modular energy weapon system, maybe being able to remove and replace lenses/coils as well.

The main reason I found this was an issue was because its rather hard to get a power cell out of an artgun, without somehow getting a security officer's cell.

I know that, but usually I prefer to use those cells for more conventional energy weapons.
