[Abandoned] Pistol: Match

Description
This was intended to be a series of guns, something of a "sidegrade" to "FFS", my friend kept nagging me about doing something similar to it so this was the result.

Unfortunately the project never really went anywhere, my friend who also was the sprite artist, got himself drafted into military service. He won't be back for another year and a half... Might as well put it on the workshop instead of letting it collect digital dust.

The idea behind the design is that the weapon have its own micro fusion reactor, the weapon itself does not need to be "reloaded" as the reactor can keep itself going for about 20+ human years or so, and by the time it's out of juice, you can easily obtain another one.

However, such design came with massive problem with heat generation, the reactor gives off so much heat that after firing a couple shots it became unsafe for use. To fix that problem, the gun has to be given its own coolant pack.

Tldr you're not really reloading anything, you're just putting coolants into the gun so it'll cool off faster for you to keep shooting.

How to use
- Primary Fire: Fires energy-based projectiles at your enemies
- Secondary Fire: "Reloads" the gun.
- Shift + Primary: Melee attack

How to obtain
- Obtainable through the tier 2 anvil
- Alternatively you can type "/spawnitem match" without the quotation marks
- Apparently FU research system makes it so you have to research them before you can unlock a blueprint. I don't play with FU so I'm not gonna make a compatibility patch. Feel free to make your own

Legal stuff
The project is in its abandoned state so i guess you can make your own fork of it i guess. There's a slim chance that we will come back to this, however, that remains to be seen if any of us has any passion left for the game and modding in general.

- lyetzi: The trend setter and was the reason why this existed


May or may not be a reference to the real life H&K USP Match

so now i can unsubscribe once i`ve edited and use it from mods folder as a pack file?

Step 1: Find a way to extract the raw files from the mod's pak file. If you don't know, google is your best friend.
Step 2: Once you've done that, find the file called "match.activeitem", open it with your text editor of choice.
Step 3: Edit whatever values you want.
Step 4: Put the edited files in your starbound's mod folder. Note that doing so will conflict with the original version of the mod if you still have it subscribed.
