Hey again, I have one question...

Do you want to wow the other Sine Gun Racers with your l33t skills!?

If so, then here's all you've got to do!
This is pretty useless to know in any mode other than sine racer, so if you don't play that, then go.

The effect:
Normally, each time you fire your sine gun, you will change directions, BUT, with this nifty trick, you will be zooming passed your opponents (in one direction) in no time!

How do i do this magic, oh CheezeWeezard?

That's easy! Just, before you shoot, do a double back jump, and then shoot! Just be careful that you're aimed in the right direction, or else you'll in the wrong direction with no means of turning, except by landing. (This may lead to epic drowning fails, who knows)

Here, a short demonstration:

Okay, thanks for pointing that out.
Sinegun will be removed from the game in 0.9.17 anyway, so it's np Smile

Which actually gives me the right to remove it again if I want to - right? :P

In my opinion Sine Gun is already complete, except for a few bugs that needs to be fixed.
The kick it gives is a feature and not a bug, in my opinion.

So... expecting to see both Sine Gun ans Structure complete in next release! Wink Smiley

well of course the kick is as feature... what would the sine gun be without it? Plus, if it were a bug, it would (afaik?) be really to fix...

The kick (and the possibility to fire in mid-air) was added by intention as part of the weapon design from the beginning.
Surely not a bug.

So what?

Did I claim you hadn't said it or that you had said the opposite?

But yeah, I guess I could have quoted him not you...

...also... this thread is nonsense anyway.

not sure if you're joking so please don't remove the sine gun D:!! is the coolest weapon of the game!! Big Grin

and it has a very funny name in spanish (rifle SINUSOIDAL) LMAO; and some of my friends are engineers so they find it way funnier cuz they study those waves all the time. i always laugh with my friends when someone uses it XD

and is very useful, especially when we need a very high jump.
