have you ever wanted to draw attention to you in a mildly wasteful manner amongst an endless crowd? why not do like the movies and shoot your gun upwards?
What?
well, it's fairly self-explanatory. firing your gun in the air would: remove a round, make a big message in chat with your name, firearm of choice and bold red text, alongside an eye-catching visual to draw attention to your position so people can gasp and point at the right person without having to fish a name out of a crowd.
Why?
holding out or even *raisehanding a firearm has a chance to just flat out go ignored until you're either awkwardly repeating yourself or waiting for someone to notice you're armed and scream "OH MY GOD THEY HAVE A GUN". firing your gun in the air would solve this obviously, by making it very apparent (and loud). or, you know, just doing it for the Rule Of Cool as the detective unloads their revolver into the ceiling and puts on a fresh new pair of sunglasses
How?
originally i thought something along the lines of using *raisehand with a gun in hand while being on harm intent, but that might cause some accidental misfires even though it's the best i could come up with
easter egg: doing this with a suppressed pistol does not work, making an even smaller than normal message in italic displayed only to the people directly adjacent to you, with the message saying something along the lines of "John General fires their suppressed pistol in the air like a dork! Isn't that thing meant to be silent?"
