Post subject:  Weapon Gibs based on remaining ammo/mag status?
...thinking of how to phrase this is awkward--

What I want to do is have a weapon's 'gibs' be altered by how many rounds it has left in its magazine when it's destroyed, either spawning a set number of particles/etc. for each round remaining, or based on steps (if more than x spawn a projectiles, if more than y spawn b projectiles, etc. etc.).

Basically volatile ammo that goes up with the gun; the more rounds it's holding when it gibs, the bigger the boom.

Anyone have a script for one or other of those handy, or time to whip one up if not?

      self.gib = CreateTDExplosive("Frag Grenade");
      self.gib.Pos = self.Pos;
      MovableMan:AddParticle(self.gib);
   end

end

      self.gib = CreateTDExplosive("Pineapple Grenade");
      self.gib.Pos = self.Pos;
