Laser Pistol (Vscript)

When making laser m60 yesterday, suddenly I remember that I ever asked a modder about a custom weapon named "laser pistol". However, it's unfortunate that for some reasons, he decided not to continue working on that project so it left me with a curiosity about what it would look like. & so, now that I'm familiar enough with laser stuffs, I decided to make that gun come true. Well, probably I'll make a new collection named "Laser Gun Series" later :D .

1. Laser Pistol User: Which type of survivor can use this feature (bots/ players/ all).
   
   
2. Laser Pistol Damage: How much the damage per 0.2 second is. Minimum damage is 1, max is no limit.
   
   
3. Laser Extra Effect When Hit: When enabled, the laser triggers a special effect when it hits a zombie. The value controls the type of effect.
   
   
4. Burning Laser: When enabled, the laser burns zombies.
   
   
5. Laser Pistol Shot Chance: The chance for the laser triggered on each shot. It has 1 second of cooldown before the next laser is shot. Min value= 0 (basically a normal m60 lol), max= 100 (100% chance on each shot)
   
   
6. Laser Color: This consists of 3 different numbers representing RGB colors. All 3 numbers must be filled in order to prevent unwanted bugs on the laser color, & the formats must be like the examples below. Examples:
   

   LaserColor= 255 0 0 (Red Laser).
   LaserColor= 255 255 0 (Yellow Laser).
   LaserColor= 255 50 0 (Orange Laser).
   LaserColor= 255 0 255 (Purple Laser)
   Etc...

• The laser shot is triggered when shooting with pistol.
  
  
• The chance for laser shot is controlled by "Laser Pistol Shot Chance". It has 1 second of cooldown before the next laser shot. For examples, if you set the value to 10, m60 has 10% to fire a laser shot during shooting. if you set it to 100, each shot has 100% chance to trigger laser shot, but it has 1 second of cooldown for each laser shot (if you keep shooting with this 100% chance, you basically have a pistol that keeps shooting laser nonstop).
  
  
• When triggered, the laser is active for 1 second & deals damage every 0.2 second (total of 5 damage hits in 1 second). When still active, laser will follow player's crosshair. Pistol fire rate will be greatly reduced when laser shot is triggered, & can shoot again after the laser shot ends.
  
  
• The laser deals 2 kinds of damage, "Basic Damage" & "Custom Damage".
  
  
• "Basic Damage" always deals 1 damage on anything, & this can hurt survivor teammates too, but the damage is not registered as a friendlyfire.
  
  
• "Custom Damage" deals damage based on "Laser Pistol Damage". The damage of this one is registered to the shooter. Survivor teammates are immune to this damage.
  
  
• As common infected are also weak to laser aside from burn & explosion damage, they will die instantly when hit by laser even if it only deals 1 damage (hardcoded by L4D2).
  
  
• The laser can pierce through common infected. So, basically the laser shot is like a sniper bullet for pistol.
  
  
• The laser can pierce through riot zombie's armor.
  
  
• The laser can't pierce through objects/ special infected & tank, so the special infected or zombies behind the targeted special infected/ tank won't get hit by the laser.
  
  
• As objects can take damage, this can also damage custom bosses/ enemies in custom campaigns.

& so Ellis is so happy that he gladly becomes heehaw cowboy with laser pistol. It's time to phew-phew the zombies with laser gun :D .

• A possible secret feature: Not yet tested, but if you set the laser chance to 100 & then you use minigun while holding pistol, you'll have a laser minigun
