1. Introduction
An original design, the Ganymede Missile Launcher is a multi-projectile, customizable weapon to satisfy your need for explosions! Geckonaut Gadgets weapons are not meant to be hyper-realistic, and are instead designed with more of a sci-fi, comicbook, and even video game feel to them. They are designed to be fun to fire and easy to mod. They are not designed to excel at capturing or pushing avatars.
I hope you have as much fun using this weapon as I did making it!
2. Version History

* Added 15 second auto-check for lost mouselook controls.
* Added "smart projectile" logic, default projectiles detonate/self-destruct when entering no-object land.
* Default projectiles will not longer detonate if you attach them to your avatar directly. I'm not sure why you'd want to do this, though.
* Brand name change to Geckonaut Gadgets!
v1.5

v1.4
* Fixed a bug with the gestures introduced in version 1.3, as well as a bug with the updating feature.
v1.3
* Additional optional gestures to cycle through all projectiles.

3. Features
There is a fair amount of scripting in the Ganymede Missile Launcher! Included features are:
* DESIGNED TO BE MODABLE

* Fully Scripted
Shoot missiles, cupcakes, and whatever you want all over!
* Multiple Projectiles
This weapon comes with four included projectiles. Included is:
I. The standard missile, it is titled "Missile" in the menu, and explodes big and boomy!
II. The lightning-enchanted missile. It is titled "ElecMissile" in the menu, and it has been enchanted with lightning magic in an unholy fusion of magic and technology. It explodes into a vibrant swirl of smoke and electricity!
III. The Shield Generating Pod. It is titled "Shield" in the menu. When it impacts another object, or the ground, it turns 180 degrees and then spawns a temporary, spherical shield! If the shield pod impacts an avatar, it moves to the avatar's feet and traps them in a shield!
IV. The Cupcake. It is titled "Cupcake" in the menu. When it impacts anything, it splats with an appropriate sound effect. Rumor has it that there is a 1 in 16 chance of getting a special splat sound when the cupcake splats...
