Riot Launcher Suggestions.

[Silvercloud29]

A thought: with the mousewheel() thing ErikHanson posted, it could be possible to load up one of those goofy Milkor-style MGLs with a bunch of different ammo types and cycle through to the one you want for a specific task - or just use attack_self() on it the way tasers switch modes. Would it be too much counterstrike/mport to have one of those in the armory?

It's funny you mention a MGL system when in the last post an admin said that we would NEVER get a MGL system. I have an idea. I think that maybe we should keep the riot launcher for sec only, and make a MGL as a traitor item.

With your suggestion, instead of different grenade types (We can still have boxes laying around that are set to only that type) there is a box of Universal grenades that spawn with them. You load the grenade into the launcher and use the mousescroll to choose what grenade type you want, instead of needing different grenade types. The difference is, the sec GL needs to be loaded 1 at a time out of a box of 12. Whereas the traitor version can load 6 at a time out of a box of 12. Then you scroll what you want the grenade to shoot out as. Set box types cannot do this, only universal grenades.

Here's the kicker though, the sec or the traitor versions wouldn't have explosive rounds by default. Or any rounds that can do major harm to multiple people. They would mostly be utility launchers. Flares, smokes, flashbangs, stuns, cleaners, nets. Would be examples of what you can set the grenades to. However if you emag them you can get them to shoot acid and incendiary shells. If you want explosives, you still need to find/buy them as a traitor. Or somehow get your 6 shot MGL emagged (It should cost enough that you cannot buy a emag for it. so you need to find another traitor or a emag. This is to help balance it out from being too OP) with for a traitor, the 6 round MGL should make the grenades stronger. Like cleaners drop space lube. nets shock people. get explosive rounds etc.
