Post [Mod Contest Entry: Balanced Wep + Not Fancy] Trident Rifle
*Disclamer: gun doesn't actually shoot tridents. It's just a name.

This is a complete rebuild of an old project of mine. While it didn't require any new spriting work, 90% of the code was tossed and redone. Now it does more with less! (although it doesn't change fire-modes from burst-to-single like I wanted...) Honestly I think it would have been easier to just create an entirely new project, rather than trying to make this one work.

It fires in bursts of 3, and while it may not lay down WALLS of bullets; it gets the job done and looks GOOD doing it!
(Makes use of a triple-sprite, to give it the illusion of lighting-effects when firing, as well as the having a functioning cartridge ejector...You can kind of see this in the first photo.

Submitted at 12:45 am...then edited for photos and formatting.

I would have got this in by the deadline, but as I was testing it just before uploading I realized the AI never fired...so it took a few hours to fix that and now the AI uses it just fine.

Regardless of whether or not this even makes it in the competition, I hope you all enjoy! It was fun to learn how to make it.

*And yes the store icon is a re-hashed version of Bear Federation. I made it years ago because I needed something for CrazyHorse. If too many people think I should change it I will

To be fair I don't think it's exactly on-par with all the rules. I just thought it was a great excuse to get back into modding and bring an old project up-to-snuff. I think there were rules to not use old projects though, and it IS somewhat complex for a "Not Fancy" competition. Glad you like it though!
