Firearm Handling Tips

Before you even look at a gun, there’s a few helpful tips that will go a long way in improving your time, and your crewmates’ time, when you’re using firearms.

Check the Safety!: Most guns will have a safety. This can be toggled by Ctrl+click’ing on the gun itself. Green ‘S’ is for Safe, Red ‘F’ is for Fire. If you don’t need the gun actively, having it on safe can prevent accidentally firing into a wall, or friend if you’re not being mindful of where you’re clicking. Additionally, if you’re on ‘Harm’ Intent, and you click with a gun on safe, you will immediately flip the safety to off and fire at your target in one go.

Mind Your Aim!: If you’re fighting mobs, aim for the chest on your targeting doll (NumPad 5 will do this immediately). Mobs are HP bags, they don’t have specific body parts, but your fellow crew does. If they’re wearing armor, the chest is almost always going to be the most heavily armored, or the only part of them armored at all. No need to get fancy when cleaning up Greimorians, center mass!

Make a Macro!: For ‘unique-action’. So many guns have a usage for a verb its practically impossible to git gud if you’re trying to fumble around and click the little button in the HUD. Notably, pump action shotguns, break action shotguns, bolt action rifles, and most revolvers make use of this to reload them in a timely manner.

The lack of a need for an upgrade, as well as institutional attachment to the design, has led to its continued use for almost two centuries.

The round shows no sign of disappearing.
