Gas sprayer in FO universe: how to apply and fit the setting

PsychoSniper

So Old I'm Losing Radiation Signs
In the moding/hacking fourm, one of the new attack FRMs made is that for a gas gun, that would spray attack various gas agents over a small distance.

Essently, what Im posting here for is purley for thoughts on little quirks or other things that would enable it to fit into the FO universe seamlessly once it gets implemented. Just post your thoughts on how such a weapon could be described and such.
And just so it will be known, it will be an extremely short ranged weapon, as it will be spraying gasses like an aresol.

Ummm... a gas gun? Is that, like, incredibly dangerous for the wielder? What if he tries to use it in a draught?

finally somebody has come up with a silent weapon for sneak attacks :thumbsup:
Sure, why use a wire, a knife or a silenced pistol when you can spray someone to death?
 
Itll hurt the weilder unless theyre in power armor or enviromental armor Ratty. I simply didnt post that, as this is general fallout, not moding and hacking. Look in the thread in moding and hacking for a lot more on it, I just posted here for a general background of best way to make it fit in as retro
 
That's cool, then. Well, I'm not familiar with modern gas weapons, but I know the Germans were the first to use such weapons in 1915 (well, not exactly - French used tear gas shells in 1914, but that doesn't count) near Ypres. They wore gas masks and created a cloud of chlorine that spread across the battlefield and caused the Allied troops to start choking. The Allies were in such panic that they retreated four miles. Poison gas weapons are actually very ineffective when it comes to actually killing things, but they wreak havoc to enemy morale. It would be cool if this gas gun of yours inflicted area damage and caused the target to run away like a pussy.

what if i just want to temporarily paralize the victim? that leaves out the rest.
Blackjack in the head?
 
What Im wanting, if it can be scripted........ itll affect everything in a radius, with more damage to the target and things up close. Itll do a bit of damage over time.

If TearGas is implemented, I suppose a action point and preception and or chance to hit penality would be done.

Hey we have environmental armor too, perhaps the wielder can only use this while wearing this armor. You can see the gas mask part in the inventory image.
 
Prehaps I should have said to read the thread in moding and hacking first............. :p

thats part of whats planned.
 
"A VaultTec commercial gas sprayer that was once used to kill weeds and small vermin in the vaults. It now makes a handy short-range weapon when filled with the proper chemicals. Warning: Must wear protective clothing while in use. It holds 15 charges of chemicals and weighs three pounds. Min ST: 5"

It could make a very good secondary beginning weapon against the annoying rats in he caves and stuff. Possible that you could have different chemicals (like the AP, JHP, and FMJ ammunition) that do different things. One is more lethal while another completely screws their perception. -Colt
 
Thank you colt! Exellent descreption.


Now I have ti edit it so its a projectile as well, so its more than just for the maleherovalutsuit animation.
 
No problem. It simply goes from one logical step to another. Something like this isn't going to be an intentional weapon but there are plant defoliators and vermin control tools like this so...

The only way this would be meant as a real weapon is as very specialized assasin's weapon and you won't be finding those lying around. - Colt
 
I have no idea what its for.

Qwerty made his toxix waste/steamsprayer thats the flamer animantion redone greenish, I thought a steamer (gas gun I guess he meant) shouldactualy LOOK like steam, or some kind of particulate matter, rather than a green flame.


And hence.......... the FRM Im making.

Ive made a FRM for the male vault suit guy, but still need to make it into a projectile so others can use it.

Please provide a link to this thread that you're talking about instead of vaguely mentioning it if you want/expect others to be on the same page as you.
 
What about an anally-mounted goatse gas-flamer? Hey, I knoe!!11 Let's implement it in the uber cool black leather ninja samurai armour!
