:shock: ...That...is...AWESOME!!
You have my Download!

Edit: Really Fun to play around with, Doesn't work in bunkers though.
Also, if you could make it a Rebindable button to drop it, that would be nice.

Do not comment the code that prevents multi wielding:

Omg finally I can have stuff digging.
I love that the diggers themselves could probably do better than the AI Dig mode if placed right.

Wow, I must say that this is one of the most innovative mods I have seen in a while.

I'll have to learn how you did it. Time to study some code...

Good luck. I did a horrible job on commenting my code. I'll try to fix this later on.

@Grif: I have been considering using (self.owner.EyePos - self.owner.ViewPoint):SetMagnitude(500) instead of a raycast, but I wasn't sure what position was returned when an actor wasn't in sharp stance. I've been too lazy to test it, since I already have a working method at the moment.

I just dislike overusing raycasting and everyone seems to love it so much.

Personal prejudice I guess.

Post Re: [WIP]Telekinetic Wielder - Beta Release
@Kyred: You'll need to use
Code:
(self.owner.ViewPoint - self.owner.EyePos):SetMagnitude(500)
if you want to get a vector pointing away from the actor. And 500 is a bit short if you want to go dual-sniping.

I disagree with Grif on the superiority of using ViewPoint because you'd have to use sharpaim when shooting or you'd always shoot yourself in the head. Also, you wouldn't be able to use the extra weapon for sniping if you had a weapon with a short SharpDistance.

Are you sure it doesn't just dig through the roof until it gets above you?
That's still working :D

Could you please tell me what exactly I should not uncomment? I don't want to make that mistake, you understand...

I actually ment comment, not uncomment.

Anyway, do not remove this code from the lua file:
Code:
    for part in MovableMan.Particles do
        if part.PresetName == "Bullet TeleWielder" then
            if box:WithinBox(part.Pos) then
                self.bKill = true;
                break;
            end
        end
    end

When it goes into the Roof it dissapears, and when you go out of the bunker it is gone.

GibImpulseLimit probably.
(On the gun you picked up I mean.)

Maybe you should somehow make the code set the GIL of whatever you pick up with it to 999999999...

Okay, I need an opinion. What do you guys think is better for the Movable Mode? The current method, or this one:

Sorry for the jumpiness of it. It's hard to aim smoothly when your game slows during screen shots. It still has problems if you aiming crosses over your head while firing. I'm trying to work on that. It does work a little better in bunkers.

The floating gun's max distance is 1/2 the aiming distance of your sharp aiming.
