hmm, it is also possible to use sitem, and randomized perameters are also doable so maybe a gun game with randomly generated weapons? i mean rng is never fun because it beats the point of skill but you can do it

I just wanted to mention it was possible for the prefix(it’s vanilla Terraria), but I’d imagine no one would use it considering it is rng. Note this also applies for Zombies

Wouldn’t this gamemode just be overshadowed by zombies? Few people would play it because, well, they’d always go to zombies first and as a whole, it’s not much strategy. Your just shooting guns.

To expand on this, you’d have to learn strategy for each gun in a map, and to be the best, you’d have to learn all that strategy to shoot then switch to another gun that you’d have to learn and so on.

I don’t think it will, because both games are in different genres. I was also originally thinking of just a gun duel, but that was just Duels with extra guns, so instead, I went with this. However, it may compete with Duels, because in a way, Gun Game is just Duels with limitations. Depending on the circumstances, I might release another Stage 1 more focused on Duels as opposed to Zombies.

Also, guns aren’t necessarily essential because you can use bows or tomes if you want.

I would change modding items to not use mod types / update types as ints. Use a simple string instead, and/or provide a way to set multiple with one, like with sitem.

so how about this, in the parameters for /ggitem you can try doing
var ParaX = new Random();
and while defining /ggitem use the para as one of the parameters, im not sure how that would work in c# because i do something like that in python but usually in that case set a lim function for it so it doesnt just generate something thats a bit absurd, or just define an array with pre-picked projectile ids and use random_shuffle and pick like array[x]

What do you mean?

ig what i was trying to say there is that some weapons can keep changing while being used, it does mean you have to constantly remove the item and get it back unless there is a way to update items

What would that be used for?

well this might be useful on another type of gamemode, but you can limit someone to like 5 bullets lets say, and add a command such like /ggadd <minimum projectile id> <maximum projectile id> <excluded projectile ids> <amount> <cycles>, and maybe a 1 shot round or something, idk im not the most creative brain with this type of stuff
