Haas129 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 What do you want to see?: A scan dart, similar to that used in Star Wars Battlefront 2 being added to the server. Why should we add it?: Would add some fun RP, and from discussions with other users in the Staff Discord, it seems that it'd be good use for special operations. What are the advantages of having this?: Would allow people who are given the weapon to tactically plan out attacks, and use the scan dart as a form of reconnaissance, scouting out where hostile NPCs and players are before turning a corner. Who is it mainly for?: Based on my discussions, it would be for special operations, but in reality it could be for anyone, I just think the weapon idea is cool. Links to any content: This is the interesting part, as the scan dart weapon is something that I'm developing. After discussing with Name, he said that I should suggest the change, and see if it is accepted before completing the addon. This is because it would take me a small amount of time to develop the addon to the level that would be needed, and if the suggestion is likely to get denied after I finish all of this, it obviously wouldn't be ideal. Therefore I am coming to the community now with the idea of the suggestion, and two short videos of a prototype of the weapon to see what people think. If this is something that people would like to see, and it is accepted, I would finish work on the addon and provide the files to those who need it. Below you can see two early prototypes of the weapon, there is basically no visual appeal at the moment as it's only intended to show the functionality of the weapon, a finished version would look much cleaner. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/wyFiS8clpMD_u/d1337fPThOU0?invite=cr-MSxXWHksODgxMzM0MTgs https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/wyYWf0ALh9Vlp/d1337sCcUbLa?invite=cr-MSxNUlMsODgxMzM0MTgs Due to the fact that I would develop most of this after this suggestion is potentially accepted, any changes could be easily done too, so if people have ideas that would make the weapon better, please bring them forward!

Manager Beckett Posted August 18, 2022 Manager Share Posted August 18, 2022 DENIED Unfortunately, we do not feel that this suggestion is suitable for implementation. It appears to be a cool feature, but considering our recent addition with the hud radar, adding this seems redundant. However, we do appreciate your attitude towards trying to help us improve, please feel free to show us some more ideas! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
