Various Gun Ideas

[Raeiphon]

I've had the idea for a while of armor piercing - high velocity bullets (e.g travel a certain length through walls, ignore armor)

Basically, piercing strength determines how many tiles the bullet can go through a wall or a not usually pierceable surface. Piercing strength 4.15 would represent a 4 tile pierce through all walls, .15 *100 would equal 15, meaning it'd completely ignore up to 15 armor. Automatic weapons have the advantage of being able to shoot 4 bullets per ammo unit, while semi-automatic is stronger and more accurate, but consumes ammo at a faster rate. It's just the way Era works.

Automatic has double the delay of semi-automatic (which is the default delay)

SA(i) being semiautomatic, A(i) being automatic. The sg117 has around .75 spread, so base it off that.

m4a1
Spread: SA(.10) - A(.45)
Velocity (speed of bullet): high (2.4tps, car speed)
Piercing Strength (rate through walls, how much armor): 2.15 (2 being wall tiles, 15 being armor ignored)
Delay: .05 (k180 delay)
Features: Fires in automatic or semi automatic bursts of 3 or 1, automatic doing 6.5 damage, semi automatic doing 8 damage. Uses .90cal ammo (or uzi ammo)

scarL
Spread: SA(.35) - A(.35)
Velocity: high (1.9tps, skateboard speed)
Piercing Strength: 1.45
Delay: .10
Features: A slightly cheaper version of the m4a1, with more armor pierce and less wall piercing capability. SA does 7.5 damage, A does 6.5 damage.

f20GL
Spread: SA(0) - A(.70)
Velocity: 2.4tps
Piercing Strength: 4.05
Delay: .15
Features: SA shot is a grenade type bullet, which explodes for 14 damage after passing 7 tiles. Ignores walls (shot in an arc). A shot is particularily vicious - it can easily surpass most barriers. A shot does 7 damage. Has a high advantage because of it's bulletspeed.

Steyr
Spread: SA(.05) - A(.10)
Velocity: 1.9tps
Piercing Strength: 3.75
Delay: .15
Features: An armor users worse nightmare. SA has a higher wall piercing strength (5.05) while automatic has a higher armor piercing strength.

I like that, that would be nice if staff encorperated it

great idea
