Is there any way to do this?!

I've got an idea for two weapons, but have no idea if its possible for them to do what I want; The first is a mine that can attach to anything; walls, ceiling, floors, and spawns five identical mines around it when the secondary fire button is pressed.

The second weapon is a gun similar to a Rocket Propelled Grenade Launcher that fires normally with primary fire, but when secondary fire is pressed, the missile randomly teleports the target, instead of killing them! (and if the level has cliffs in it, the target CAN appear in the air and suffer falling damage)

Question #1: Are they possible?

Question #2: Do they sound like good ideas? I sort of got the idea for the respawning mine from the JHS level. The idea for the teleport attack came from a BGJ game I was in that got `invaded' by two hackers.

yes, they are possible, entirely possible

I don't know if it would be a good idea though
I like the first one, but the second one sounds not so cool, but that's just my opinion.

I know nothing about cogging, so dont ask me, but about that teleport gun, sounds like you'll have to make a cog that works with both the gun and level, cuz you'll have to make the player teleport to a ghost position over the cliff, meaning its gotta either be an edit or your own level. So hopefully your planning on a TC instead of just a gun mod right? Atleast thats how I see it, but then again, I aint no cogger.

The Bible is the only religious book to actually state that it is the truth and the only way. Thats why I'm a Christian.

In my mind I can see your face, as Your love pours down in a shower of grace. Some people tell me that Your just a dream, but my faith is the evidence of things unseen.

Once upon a time God spoke to me, and then I was never the same again.

Nope, not a TC. Guess I'll have to scrap the Teleport attack, because I planned on using the mod in JHS and all the versions of the Oasis out there. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

I'm not a cogger, either, just a thinker; I was just asking, because I know someone that I'm thinking of asking to make the weapons, who IS a cogger (but primarily a builder, not a weapons-maker).

I've already thought of concussion grenades (Thermal Detonators that release a Concussion Rifle-type blast) for the mod, and I know those can be done....

The way I have the mod designed, the only weapons unchanged will be the rail detonator (my favorite gun) and saber. I call the mod "Sneaky B*stard", because it has an invisibility mode, activated by using the IR goggles, and the mod is designed to be played NF, but the name will probably change.

Hey,

I'm pretty sure the teleport "attack" can be done. I can't go into the deatails because the one I've created is a OMG dare I say it HACK. So it can be done.

Later,
