Why? (there is Graf's ZDoom with custom weapons support.)

Ahahaha... Haha... Ha...

Trust me, no amount of decorate support is going to allow one to make a gravity gun. :mrgreen:

I forgot that a victim cannot be an activator of a projectile special.

It would provide interesting teamplay and coop results, at the least. Lift a player to a hard-to-reach platform, hide him near the roof of a room to keep him safe from deathmatchers, etc. Plus, it would be amusing to toss enemies in deep pits to trap them!

Open up the source and get cracking. P_ThrustMobj is a good place to start.

What does the Gravity Gun do? I don't know HL2 (and thanks to Steam I might never. ;))

It pulls things in to you, makes them hover in front of you until you press fire, then it sends them flying, causing damage to anything they hit.

Steam is a vile abomination. I had to wait 5 minutes for it to update crap before being able to grab this. How the feck did Valve think this was a good idea or that people would be OK with it? It is bad in so many ways I don't know where to begin.

Aaaanyway... gravity gun in action

Never thought of using those buzz saws before... Manhacks are fun to use as a weapon, too. This is really funny results! Maybe I WILL make a gravity gun of some sort.
