an ordered list of reloading states used by default_controls.

the default reload states for a magazine operated weapon, copied from the m4.

Example

{action="charge", time=.5, anim="charge", sounds={sound="ar_charge", delay = .2}},
{action="unload_mag", time=.25, anim="unload", sounds = {sound="ar_mag_unload"}},
{action="store", time=.5, anim="store", sounds = {sound="ar_mag_store"}},
{action="load", time=.5, anim="load", sounds = {sound="ar_mag_load", delay = .25}},
{action="charge", time=.5, anim="charge", sounds={sound="ar_charge", delay = .2}}

table (optional) a table {x1,y1,z1, x2,y2,z2} specifying the bounding box of the model. The first 3 (x1,y1,z1) are the lower of their counterparts. This is autogenerated from the model when not present, reccomended that you leave nil.

string overlay on the item to use when infinite ammo is on

int=3 how many rounds in burst using when firemode is at "burst"

table containing a list of actions for PC users passed to Control_handler

table containing a list of actions for touch screen users passed to Control_handler

the size in meters to render the gun in it's inventory opened with /guns4d_inv

the image of the gun in it's inventory opened with /guns4d_inv

table of firemodes and their overlays in the player's inventory when the gun is on that firemode

string (optional) inventory image for when the gun has no magazine

string inventory image for when the gun is loaded. This is added automatically during construction as the item's wield image.

Ammo_handler the class (based on) ammo_handler to create an instance of and use. Default is Guns4d.ammo_handler

part_handler Part_handler class to use. Default is Guns4d.part_handler

Sprite_scope sprite scope class to use. Nil by default, inherit Sprite_scope for class (documentation needed, reccomended contact for help if working with it)

Dynamic_crosshair crosshair class to use. Nil by default, set to Guns4d.Dynamic_crosshair for a generic circular expanding reticle.

vector the offset of the gun relative to the eye's position at hip.

float the horizontal offset of the eye when aiming

the time it takes to go into full aim

vector the offset of the gun (relative to the right arm's default position) at hip.

the ratio that the look rotation is expressed through player_axial (rotated around the viewport) rotation as opposed to gun_axial (rotating the entity).

sway speed multiplier while at hip

sway angle multiplier while at hip

float TL:DR higher decreases recoil at expense of smoothness. 1/value is the deviation of a normalized bell curve, where x is the time since firing. this means that increasing it decreases the time it takes for the angular velocity to fully "decay".

float Correction of recoil offset per second is calculated as such: target_correction_factor[axis]*time_since_fire*recoil[axis]

float The maximum rate per second of recoil offset as determined with gun.properties.recoil.target_correction_factor

float caps the recoil velocity that can stack up from shots.

vector {x=float, y=float}, defines the initial angular velocity produced by firing the gun

vector {x=float, y=float}, ranges -1 to 1. Defines the probability of the recoil being positive or negative for any given axis.

float angular velocity multiplier when firing from the hip

float maximum angle of the sway

float angular velocity the sway

float maximum angle multiplier while the gun is at the hip

float velocity multiplier while the gun is at the hip

float=1.6 the cycle speed multiplier

float=1 decay factor when walking has stopped and offset remains.

table containing angular deviation while walking in the same format as an offset vector. Acts as a multiplier on the figure-8 generated while walking.

bool defines wether the draw animation is played on swap (when loaded). Default true.

string "none" bolt will never need to be charged after reload, "catch" when fired to empty bolt will not need to be charged after reload, "no_catch" bolt will always need to be charged after reload.

float the time it takes to swap to the gun

string name of the animation to play from visuals.animations. Default "draw"

string name of the sound to play from sounds. Default "draw"

bool wether the gun only uses a magazine or accepts raw ammunition too.

table a list of accepted bullet itemstrings

table a list of accepted magazine itemstrings

string the mag the gun starts with. Set to "empty" for no mag, otherwise it defaults to accepted_magazines[1] (if present)

name of mesh to display. Currently only supports b3d

list of textures to use.

scale multiplier. Default 1

objects that are attached to the gun. This is especially useful for attachments

Example

my_object = {
    textures = {"blank.png"},
    visual_size = {x=1,y=1,z=1},
    offset = {x=0,y=0,z=0},
    bone = "main",
    backface_culling = false,
    glow = 0
}

toggles backface culling. Default true

a table of animations. Indexes define the name of the animation to be refrenced by other functions of the gun. should be in the format {x=integer,y=integer}

Example

animations = {
    empty = {x=0,y=0}
    loaded = {x=1,y=1}
    fire = {x=10,y=20}
    draw = {x=24,y=30} --DEFAULT of charging.draw_animation.
}

There are other animations which are variable which are not listed here, these are usually defined by properties such as: reload, draw_animation

sound player when firing the weapon

frequency of keyframe samples for animation offsets and

default max hear distance when not specified

fps=60 animation fps i.e. during firing when no length is specified

bool

bool

bool

bool

bool wether the gun rotates on it's own axis instead of the player's view (i.e. ironsight misalignments)

wether animations create an offset

whether the idle animation changes or not

general gain multiplier for third persons when hearing sounds

the root bone of the gun (for animation offsets)

string="magazine",the bone of the magazine in the gun (for dropping mags)

string="right_aimpoint", the bone which the right arm aims at to

string="left_aimpoint", the bone which the left arm aims at to

table version of 4dguns this gun is made for. If left empty it will be assumed it is before 1.3.
