Why It's Good For The Game

I AM THE LAW

I was originally not planning on including a firing lock, however with the introduction of the audio to the lawbringer, i found it might be disruptive during conversations where words including "ion" or "hot" may be used. I have implemented a small catch) to the lock, that being the gun gets progressively angrier the more you trigger it with the lock on, eventually resulting in it occasionally ignoring the lock, drawing some power, and finally zapping you(or two other possible outcomes)

Changelog

add: The Lawbringer now has a lock, however, be careful using it, as it tends to make it upset.
fix: Bigshot no longer vents the station while blowing up doors/machines.
balance: Detain now does double the previous damage, as originally intended.
sound: The Lawbringer will now talk/yell at you.
spellcheck: fixed projectile name for clownshot.
code: Lots of code improvements for Lawbringer, redundant code is mostly gone.

It still has some issues I personally would like to see addressed

• You made clownshot not maim the clown to near death, but now it doesn't seem to do anything(?)
• The disabler function often just doesn't work great for me
• I still think it could use some sprite work so I can tell it's charging easier, you picked some colors for these modes that are really tough to see
• Some of the modes are just bad and obnoxious if the hos is new and bad. Take the fire shot for example, had a hos use this on a suspect and lit me on fire like 5 times (as an officer)

Also Idk about the firing lock that sounds like it'll get annoying fast, the clown is a frequent discussion topic on the station, and the gun has so many trigger words, and it triggers from partial words like "Champion" will trigger Ion mode

When I play HOS I mostly find myself using this gun for one of two things:

1. Keep it in my back pocket for the kill mode bullets
2. Breach shot

if this thing shocks me I'm deep frying it mark my fucking words

I made no changes to it, the clown you were shooting did not have the clumsy gene

• The disabler function often just doesn't work great for me

Ok, I might buff again later, I am happy where it is now. Try using it in tight hallways against single targets, I found that if used properly it only needs 1-2 shots to knock someone down

• I still think it could use some sprite work so I can tell it's charging easier, you picked some colors for these modes that are really tough to see

we have someone working on new sprites, not gonna make any changes until that’s done.

• Some of the modes are just bad and obnoxious if the hos is new and bad. Take the fire shot for example, had a hos use this on a suspect and lit me on fire like 5 times (as an officer)

this is a player issue, if the hos is insistent on using fire to kill people they are arresting, they would do it another way

my testing with the lock shows that it takes roughly 18 consecutive triggers of the lock to cause a failure, turning it off causes anger to go down pretty fast.

what if my target isn't in a narrow hallway and all the shots just go into the void
