Ever wanted to ban people, but couldn't or didn't have the chance? If the answer to that question is "yes", then Banhammer is just the thing you are looking for! So without further ado, I present to you:
---DOWNLOADS--- Stable[Last update: 05/09/2017] (Developed on dev build. Tested on dev build.) Development (Can be hella broken.)
MOD IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED!
Spoiler: The Manual. Only valid for Stable version.
Mechanics:
Hitting enemies replenishes health. It's the only way, excluding soulspheres. All health bonuses have been turned into armor bonuses.
Speed and jump height have been improved, due to moderators having inhuman strength. Use this to your advantange and unleash powerful attacks.
Berserk can really change your game! It turns you into a glass cannon. Use with caution!
Jumping is required!
Keys you'll need to bind for best moderating experience:
Primary fire: Swing the Banhammer! Slam the Banhammer! Can be comboed with dash. Slamming happens when you jump, which will lift the hammer. When lifted, press fire when almost on ground to slam. Needs right timing.
Secondary fire: Throw the Banhammer! Can be comboed with dash.
Reload: Dash. Can be done mid-air.
Zoom I: calls down a team of moderators specifically trained to kick anyone's ass. Void hammer required. You must also be outside, though that can be turned on/off in the menu. Has 90-second cooldown.
Zoom II: Nuke. Same as slam, but use Zoom button instead of Fire. Void hammer required. Has 120 second cooldown. For a cartoony feel, set particle style to Round in the GL renderer.
User1: Summon the spirits of the dead! A counter in the lower-right corner of the HUD increases sometimes when you kill enemies. Use this key to unleash those spirits to haunt your enemies and deal damage to them.
User4 (optional): Spray decal. Yes, this has been added, because why the fuck not. Not many decals, though.
Banhammers:
Silver hammer: It bans. Simple as that.
Gold hammer: Enables homing hammers. Nothing better than kicking someone's ass from right around the corner.
Platinum hammer: As if homing hammers weren't enough, this hammer throws EXPLOSIVE homing hammers.
Void hammer: The pinnacle of Banhammer™ technology. This hammer allows you to call down your fellow moderators, and they look really pissed! Oh, it also lets you to nuke stuff.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Having Fullscreen HUD scaling of 1 is HIGHLY recommended, otherwise the HUD will end up being huge. Unless you're on 4K.
LESS IMPORTANT NOTE: This mod was originally designed as a joke mod. Don't expect entirely new weapon sprites and whatnot. I'm by all means not a good spriter. The edits are kinda shabby, too. Mod might or might not get repetitive; depends on how much you want to ban stuff.
Spoiler: Videos. Caution: may contain outdated material!

Spoiler: F.A.Q
Q: Is this compatible with other PWADs?
A: Maps - yes. Monsters - yes. Weapons - no. Anything that adds weapons will not work or will work with unintended results. I give it 0/10. Not recommended.
Q: Is this compatible with other IWADs?
A: It should be, yes. The palette would not be causing any trouble.
Q: Is this multiplayer compatible?
A: Should be in GZDoom, not in Zandronum.
Q: This is too OP!
A: That's not a question. And yes, that's the purpose of this mod. Suggestions on how to make it balanced are welcome. Pull requests are also welcome. Keep in mind that I reserve the right to reject suggestions if they do not fit.
Q: This is too underpowered!
A: Well, then. Same rules as above. Suggest and/or submit PR.
Q: I don't like a feature!
A: Saaaame as abooooove.
Q: This mod rips off Fragtrak's HUD! Thief!
A: Check Fragtrak's credits.
- Added keys on HUD.
- Added an additional 25% damage resistance when berserked. This is to compensate lack of recovery.
- Added option to toggle whether to alert monsters upon firing or not.
- Updated manual. Forgot about the alt attack dash combo.
EDIT: I'll also make any future changes to a separate, development branch. Will merge when enough features have been added.
The only thing you forgot is the Kim Jong Lud nukes. And the poor Discord channels on the other side of them... that never again see the light of day...
I appreciate that we occasionally get temporary shitpost channels in the Discord server. Makes the total meltdowns of culture and dignity a lot of fun.
In an attempt to re-rail this thread, I can say that with the help of unRyker (bless this guy), the mod is now deemed FULLY MULTIPLAYER-COMPATIBLE! Well, stable version, at least. (Still no Brutal Doom compat., though.)
(There's a white pixel on this emoticon and it bugs the living fuck out of me.)
