A device that lets you climb great heights, swing from building to building, or snipe from an unusual position. This device has 3 modes: normal (standard), spring, and double shot. Switch modes by opening the Pie Menu and selecting the AI Gold option.
Normal Mode:
Works like a grappling gun, allowing you to ascend/descend at a steady rate and swing.
Controls:
Hold Fire to launch the claw untill it hits something. Releasing Fire before the claw hits something will bring the claw back.
Release Fire and press Fire again to bring back claw and relaunch.
Triple-tap Crouch to release the claw and bring it back, even when holding a different device.
Keyboard or Gamepads - Hold Crouch and Up/Down to climb up/down the rope.
Mouse + keyboard - Hold Crouch and Scroll Up/Scroll Down to climb up/down the rope.
You could also switch to another tool or weapon and use it while hanging on the rope.
NEW
Swing Guide: Allows you to see where you will swing.
To disable the swing guide, open up "TF Grappling Gun.rte/Scripts/Standard/GrapplingGunStandard.lua"
You should see a box-like thing that is titled "Settings." Change the second-to-last setting to disable or enable the swing guide.
Spring Mode:
Quickly pulls you towards the claw when stuck to cross chasms or pass enemies.
Controls:
Hold Fire to launch the claw untill it hits something. Once it does, it will quickly but safely pull you towards it untill you are at its position.
Release Fire at anytime to bring back the claw.
Double Shot Mode
Works like the standard mode, but can fire 2 claws and you can move to the first or second one.
Controls:
Hold Fire untill the first claw hits something.
Release and Fire again to fire the second claw.
