For now, it changes the perforator into an autocannon (uses nails but

shoots bullets). Will make it an independant weapon eventually. You

can drop the gun in front of you, 3 seconds after which it arms and

tracks the nearest target within a 180 degree arc (except owner - will

track ANYTHING eventually) and shoots it. It takes your nails with it

and uses them for ammo (so it CAN run out). You can pick it up and so

can anyone else, and you can have multiple remotes lying around.

Finally, you can set it to autofire if you want.

The progs.dat includes realheal and realfall as well, so watch them

drops!

Care,
