Hey Guys,

Here is a great opportunity for you guys to come up with some great new power ups for the server. I need a few things:

Name:
Corresponding Icon idea:
Description:

For example:

Fly Powerup
Picture of Bird
Makes you fly

I've already added a new powerup to the Development server. It is called the ghost powerup. It gives you level 2 sturdy on the gun you are holding, and it lets you walk through players and monsters. Let's see some cool ideas guys!

Don't have any icons yet but I'll work on that later, teaching mobster how to rust.

Cautiosness: removes self damage taken.
Image
Good to put on like a deemer and hopefully fixes the issues with heal PU not working at times aswell.


Sniper rifle explosive rounds: gives sniper rifle splash damage.
Image
Lack of sniper rifle PU's and sniper rifle isn't much of a viable weapon now, hope this PU can change that.


Sniper rifle incendiary rounds: sniper rifle ammo turns into incendiary rounds, burning targets you hit (burn ticks x times for y damage and each tick has a chance to proc vorp, much like combat shotgun alt fire but long range).
Image
Lack of sniper rifle PU's and sniper rifle isn't much of a viable weapon now, hope this PU can change that.


Chain lightning: lightning gun hits arc to nearby enemies.
Image Image
Lack of lightning gun PU's and lightning gun isn't much of a viable weapon now, hope this PU can change that.


Healing 5: same effect as 5 healing PU's.
Same as heal PU but with a 5 in it.


Resupply 5: same effect as 5 resupply PU's.
Same as resup PU but with a 5 in it.


Lucky 5: same effect as 5 lucky PU's.
Same as lucky PU but with a 5 in it.


Mini rocket launcher: turns your minigun into a mini rocket launcher light.
Image
Minigun has only 1 PU for it atm while most weapons have 2 or more (apart from sniper, shield gun and lightning gun).


E SR: turns a SR into an E SR light.
Image
Because inferno beam sucks and spamming shock combo's aint fun or always viable.


Laser rifle: turns your lightning gun into a laser rifle light.
Image
Lack of lightning gun PU's and lightning gun isn't much of a viable weapon now, hope this PU can change that.


Ball lightning: lightning gun shoots slow moving balls of lightning wich explode on impact, giving a deemer like explosion (half the size or so) with lightning.
Image
Lack of lightning gun PU's and lightning gun isn't much of a viable weapon now, hope this PU can change that.

I remember we already had a power up image for the Mini Rocket Launcher already (Not sure if we had an actual model for it). I remember it being on Joeys UT site but couldn't track it down.

Pretty cool ideas, hope Paint will be able to use them.

FYI, before the iron was made, I would put 3 single sturdies on a wop that I am not going to use. I still do this or I use the iron in the same way. I would prefer to use the slot for something else more useful. It's like the health and shield regen, you put it on another wop and it still works. Just make sure when you die you switch to it so it works when you are alive again. I wouldn't mind seeing a pullforward +5 or used with some other pu like the propulsion is with the knockback.

Laser Pu took less than an hour to create everything and modify code :)

Awesome man!

Those power ups look great too.
The Mini RL one looks better than that original one I was talking about before too.
