Custom Gunbuddies - UrsulaMejor - 10-12-2014

Gunbuddies you create should spawn with no guns in their GUN SLOT.

"Hand me a weapon, private!"

You can hand them any gun and they will use it at the expense of battery-charge proportional to the weight of the ammo in the gun.

Squirt gunbuddy
Shot gunbuddy
Zip gunbuddy
silenced 22 gunbuddy

etc.

You can switch the guns if you have SU access. The ones in research will still spawn with tasers by default, obviously.

Pros:
-> Customize your guardbot with explosive shotgun rounds!
-> Will give people a reason to create more bots, which is good!

Cons:
-> Might be hard to code
-> Might be outright unbalanced (?)

Discuss/Leave reasonable suggestions below

(sorry for making two threads in such short suggestion, maybe I should make a "Ursula's Dumb Ideas" thread since i post so many)

Some guns should just not work... I really don't want a RPG buddy, or a teleport gun buddy.

Sorry for double-post, but if this does get added, it should be restricted to guns that spawn on the station, or else the mentioned happens.

Tranq rifle = Safari-Buddy.

artifact gun(god forbid someone gives a guard buddy one) = WorstNightMare Buddy.

I was more referencing the time that the admins gave us all guns to fight off the massive hordes of wendigos they spawned in... only to discover the guns fired wendigos.

So in other words, the admins played the best prank on the station.

I wrote a thing that does this thing! Plus, you can hot-swap out buddy tools if they're unlocked!

Now we just need a way to use guardbuddies for anything worth noting. Maybe an easier way to set them to body-guard?
