[Z-DAY] .44 Magnum Revolver Versión 2.2

Z-DAY PRODUCTIONS

.44 Magnum Revolver, Official User Manual

UPDATE 2.2:

MAJOR overhaul of all scripted components. Script memory cut down to 288kb from about 750kb, while keeping the same functionality and reliability.

Added three new skins: 'Mixed,' 'Snow,' and 'Patton.'

Shotgun shell rate-of-fire reduced oh-so-slightly as a result of the new scripts... but now operating on a mere three rezzers. All other firing modes operate exactly the same.

OVERVIEW:

When you're fighting to stay alive, sometimes you gotta work with the basics. There's a lot of reliable guns out there, but nothing screams simplicity (not to mention class) like the venerable revolver.

BACK STORY:

"We started coming up on the edge of a small town just as the sun began to disappear over the horizon. Being closed in amongst the buildings could be a potential deathtrap if we got ourselves surrounded, but with daylight quickly running out, there wouldn't be any time to go around. One of would have to scout ahead, and as the only uninjured member of the group, that meant me. I rigged up a flashlight to my trusty revolver, took a deep breath, and started walking into the blackness."

CONTROLS

Weapon uses standard mouselook controls with arrow keys. Revolver is semi-automatic. Cylinder capacity is fixed at six rounds. Upon emptying the cylinders, click again to reload, or use the reload gesture. You'll also need to reload in order to swap ammo types.

GESTURES

The .44 Revolver is a secondary weapon. Using the included gestures, it's mapped to the 2 key. If used with a primary weapon (such as the M24A2 Sniper), pressing 2 will automatically safe the primary weapon and deploy the secondary weapon. CTL S to safe (using included gestures.) Gestures may be modified to use this weapon-swapping functionality with any secondary weapon.

ATTACHMENTS

Holosight - A 1x magnification weapon sight with a holographic red dot reticle.

Suppressor - A handmade flash and sound suppressor. Uses a gas seal between the cylinders and breach to effectively suppress weapon report and flash.

Flashlight - A tactical flashlight zip-tied around the revolver's barrel. Crude, but effective.

STRATEGY

Within its effective range, the revolver is highly accurate, however with only six shots it is not particularly effective against large groups. Instead, focus on engaging single targets.

Reloads are lightening-quick, so don't be afraid to simply dump all six chambers on someone. Especially when using the shot-shell rounds, this can be devastating up close.

When using the explosive darts, keep in mind that there is a substantial delay between impact and detonation. The blast radius for each dart is somewhat small, however if you use all six shots, the potential combined blast area can be much greater. Also keep in mind that hitting someone directly with a dart will stick it to them, granting them an inevitable death within the next 4 seconds. Enormously satisfying.
