 How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? I searched for an answer, and did not get one.
So my question is, how do I make a Gun, a normal Gun, fire something like, a laser, or something like that? I know I can change the color of the bullet, but, is there any other way?

Re: How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? If you mean a laser like on my Uber Cannon, that's just a muzzle flash that looks like a laser, the gun really shoots hundreds of invisible bullets.

Re: How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? No, I mean like a Rifle kind of thing, is that JUST color change?
And also, there were mods where someone fired a block, how do I do that? Is that just a Muzzle Flash with weight added to it?

Re: How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? It's where the gun shoots an MOSRotating.
I don't think you can fire a muzzle flash.
I reserve the right to be completely wrong.

I reserve the right to be completely wrong. I reserve the right to tell you that you are wrong. Attachables are pretty much MOSRotatings with joint code. Pistol2 literally fires a muzzle flash. Pistol3 fires a modified muzzle flash (you'll see why I modified it after you fire Pistol2). Attachment:
File comment: Fires a freakin' muzzle flash.

Re: How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? SWEET. But, which Color Code do I change in the Gun.ini to get color change? Code: AddAmmo = Round
InstanceName = Round Gun Template
ParticleCount = 1
Particle = MOPixel
InstanceName = Particle Gun Template
Mass = 0.008
RestThreshold = 500
LifeTime = 1500
Sharpness = 250
HitsMOs = 1
GetsHitByMOs = 0
Color = Color
R = 143
G = 143
B = 143 This one we'll call Number 1
Atom = Atom
Material = Material
CopyOf = Bullet Metal
TrailColor = Color
R = 155
G = 155
B = 155 Number 2
TrailLength = 25
Shell = MOSParticle
CopyOf = Gun Template Casing
FireVelocity = 80
ShellVelocity = 10
Separation = 5
AddAmmo = Round
CopyOf = Round Gun Template
InstanceName = Round Gun Template Tracer
ParticleCount = 1
Particle = MOPixel
CopyOf = Particle Gun Template
InstanceName = Particle Gun Template Tracer
RestThreshold = 500
LifeTime = 1500
HitsMOs = 1
GetsHitByMOs = 0
Color = Color
R = 247
G = 247
B = 147 Number 1A
Atom = Atom
Material = Material
CopyOf = Bullet Metal
TrailColor = Color
R = 255
G = 255
B = 159 Number 2A
TrailLength = 45
And what do I change them to to get a Blue color? Maybe the Blue Glow even.

Re: How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? 1: pixel color of the regular round
2: trail color of the regular round
1A: pixel color of the tracer round
2A: trail color of the tracer round
Blue glow is
R = 220
G = 250
B = 240
for general blues
R = 0 (increase for brighter)
G = 0 (increase for brighter)
B = 255 (decrease for darker)

Re: How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? All you have to do is change the ammo to a MOSRotating, and give it MOSRotating properties. So, where it says AddAmmo = Round, change it to AddAmmo = MOSRotating, and since you seem new, copy in the properties of another MOSRotating over the previous properties, and change them to your needs.

Re: How do you make a Gun fire something besides a Bullet? It's a bit different than that if you want to define the MOSRot like you would a MOPixel round.
Open base.rte/ammo.ini
Go down to the test head round.
That would be an example of a MOSRot round, defined in the way regular MOPixel Rounds are defined.
And in the copying of an independently defined object way, using Addammo is also unnecessary, it can be defined as an effect, actor, whatever, and still be designated as the round.
