Seeing as how the rope can already do this, I don't see why most other weapons aren't able to shoot when your hedgehog is in the air or sliding. It kind of messes with the flow of the game sometimes.

(eg. When you have 2 seconds left in a shoppa turn with your weapon out, but can't shoot it)

Not to mention that even the aiming crosshair is still visible at all times - leading to the misconception that you can fire it while sliding and falling.

Maybe there is something technical preventing this, please enlighten me on that if there is.

The fact that some weapons are simply flagged as "must be used while standing still" ? Smile

Portal gun isn't, for example.

Why the game wouldn't want you to jump while firing a weapon?
Mostly just for sanity's sake, but also to avoid running into your own shot (depends on the weapon of course).
And "need it for shoppa" is not a very strong argument w/ most of us I think Big Grin
