Description
This addon has had a major overhaul recently, if something isn't working for you let me know. Also note as such the video here is outdated, at some point in the future I will be updating it - sorry I can't give a date but currently uni runs my life.

I made this weapon with the following in mind:

The gun shoots confetti and deals no damage.
It was designed to be a donator weapon for TTT servers.
This means it will not spawn on the map, it will not be buyable from the detective/traitor menu.
If you want to give yourself this weapon in a local server use "weapon_ttt_confetti", make sure sv_cheats is set to 1.
Can also be used in conjunction with pointshop


Has 5 ConVars (settings you can change via console)
> ConfettiDistance - Sets how far the confetti travels, time based
> ConfetiParticles - Sets how many particles are shot each tick - I can't spell, this only has 1 t in confetti for the console command, opposed to the rest which have 2
> ConfettiSize - Sets approximately how big the confetti pieces are
> ConfettiSpread- Sets how far confetti spreads
> ConfettiLife- Sets how long the particles will stay after being spawned
> ConfettiPointshop - Can players buy this from pointshop - by default on, but limited to superadmin. You will need to extract this addon if you want to set the usergroups.

Note: I am aware there are bugs, unfortunately some are client side and I have no idea what causes these for specific players and as far as I'm aware there is no fix. Others are still client but happen to all, I am attempting to fix this, I'm hoping this latest update has done so, unfortunately its impossible to replicate this and tell if its a single client or all when testing by myself.

Also: The bug of not seeing confetti is something I can not fix, its due to there being too many particles already spawned. Try changing confetti_distance and confetii_particles, and if you have a lot of people on server, try changing confetti_delay_time

Compatible with sandbox and TTT

Icon should work in TTT, but not sandbox as I don't know how to do so, once I figure it out, I will update with an icon.

PLEASE READ, if the gun is no longer working for you after the latest update let me know. Having trouble, send me an email: gl1tch3tc0des@gmail.com

Lots of reasons, a summarised version before the long one: I'm lazy.
1) I don't know how to model, or rather, i don't know how to make a model and make it work in game, general modelling i started learning a while back.
2) I'm not artistic
3) I don't see the point in downloading extra model files if the ones in game work fine especially when paired with a texture that isn't seen on guns.
4) Not really a reason, just a, I haven't touched the workshop in a long time. The item may not work, but no one has said it doesn't, so /shrug.

Also, not sure if I was just blind, or steam just didn't want me knowing there was a new comment for this, because this is the first time I've seen a notification of the new comment.

why does it use the regular pistol model?

Hopefully this latest update fixes the issues winter_moon. I tested it and it worked, but it was being screwy had to update my test addon 10+ times when changes weren't happening. Let me know if it is still broken

Odd, I had thought it was just me as I spawn as a traitor when testing and had obviously bought it to test it. I will play with this and attempt to fix it, thank you for bringing this to my attention

I believe I've found a bug with this addon. I added it to my TTT server as a donator perk via the pointshop. However I've noticed something quite odd. It works fine in the pointshop, MVP players (one of our donator ranks) can purchase it just fine, however the issue arises with oddly enough, Traitors. Traitors seem to be always given the gun upon spawning. We've tested it many times, and there's a 100% chance that traitors will be given the gun (regardless if they own it or not) when they spawn. I've had to since remove it due to this bug. I hope it's fixable, because its a really fun addon, especially as a donator perk.

This addon has just undergone a massive rework, it is possible that some features do NOT work, but all should. If you are having trouble with this item or would like help with anything that has changed leave a comment here.

No, it doesn't and up until recently I was busy at uni, so was unable to update but at some point in the next week I will try and update this and make it compatible with pointshop alongside some major revisions.
