The ability to unload weapons - Danger Noodle - 07-24-2025

Personally I just think this'd be a neat addition to the game, you could unload a firearm by [Exact input to be determined, probably something like shift+click] or right clicking and pressing the button for it, this puts the magazine/shells/etc in your other hand or if it's two handed ejects it below you, kinetics are instant while cells have the action bar like with swapping ammo. Mostly a flavor addition with from my point of view minimal abuse potential, in almost every other case you're better off just using that gun you have instead of disabling it but this does allow for some mind games. This might increase the amount of small cells in rotation but with minimal effort you can get something better than the standard 200u cells anyway as long as mining exists.

This would actually be helpful since you can't unload two handed weapons or energy weapons without other ammo with you, but you can with one handed weapons.

i feel this would be very helpful even as a right click option, salvagers have to either empty out or void their bullets whenever swapping mods on their survival rifles and unloading just sounds intuitive
