Rifle with M203 (Vscript)

"Is it possible to create a rifle mod with m203? A real m203?"

& the answer is:

"YES..."


This mod allows the use of m203 on rifle when using scope/ aim (yes, rifle can aim with this mod). As the base explosion effect from "env_explosion" was kind of too normal, I changed it to an explosion from particle effect, while still maintaining the gib effect of the explosion. & special for the m203 on SI & tank, there's knockback effect.

List of available features on "rifle with gl.txt" cfg file:

1. Rifle GL User: Which type of survivor can use the m203 grenade launcher (bots/ players/ all). For bots only, they can use without using scope/ aim, but they only have 5% chance to shoot m203 on each shot.

2. Rifle GL Explosion Radius: How far the explosion radius is. The default radius is 250, the same as the grenade launcher radius.

3. Rifle GL Damage: How much the damage of the explosion is. The default damage is 500, same as grenade launcher damage.

4. Rifle GL Shot Count: How many normal shots until you get a grenade launcher ammo. The default shot count is 40 (shooting 40 bullets of rifle = gain 1 GL ammo).



Here are the mechanisms of the M203:
- Keep shooting with rifle until you get a notif about "GL Ammo" on the bottom left of the screen. How many shots you need to do are based on "Rifle GL Shot Count".

- Press "AIM/ SCOPE" button or "WALK + FIRE" buttons to aim.

- Shoot when you're still aiming to trigger m203. The rifle fire rate will be greatly reduced when using m203 (you'll get 1-2 seconds of delay before you can shoot. You can switch weapons to skip it though). & the aim/ scope mode will be cancelled when successfully shooting with m203.

- M203 projectile will go straight to the center of crosshair (no volley effect, as I'm still not familiar in launching the projectile in curve angle yet).

- The projectile explodes in 1 second after shot.

- Survivors are immune to this explosion (for now, maybe?).



So, this becomes another weapon customization & at the same time a proof that vscript can make one of your dream weapons come true. I think I just got an idea about Robocop's special Barret with explosion bullet, but maybe next time when my crazy idea dominates my mind again.



NOTES:
- The explosions on the video were without sound because the video was made before I added the explosion sound.
- a known bug: Only for SI & tank, the explosion can bypass walls or objects.
