Really good especially with the wide variety of quality reload anims... but the sounds are just a bit too weak. Particularly the firing and the "thumb pressing down on the slide lock" ones.

...Getting sidetracked. Let's bring the topic back to the initial test. If the experiment indeed shows this result, why does your friend experience that issue? **Because as the host of the local server, the server's rules follow the mods *you* have installed.** Your friend **violates this rule** by using a different mod. Unless they use the *exact same mod* as you, they, as a participating player, **will encounter problems.**

First off, **this has nothing to do with variable functions**. Well, you can think of local games and online games as two distinct things; they each have **their own separate set of operating rules**. When playing locally offline, you can enjoy the novelty brought by varied actions. But once you go online, you'll find that all those extra actions become ineffective – it will only play **two sets of animations: empty reload and non-empty reload**.

In an online environment, unless you're using a self-hosted cloud server with specific custom scripts added, official servers and servers without those scripts are basically the same. **No matter what weird mods you have installed locally, the server's logic takes precedence online.** It will forcibly disable certain special functions of mods, including this mod's multiple reload animations.

Hmm... how should I answer this question...

Actually, the verification method is quite simple. Have your friend join you for a co-op campaign, select a local server, and then you use this **multi-action Magnum mod**. Have your friend equip **any other Magnum mod** (as long as it's *not* the multi-action one). When you both start playing, you'll notice that **when your friend reloads using their Magnum mod, the animation glitches out as if something's wrong...**

Also why exactly it causes issues?
i don't know about source but let's say in theory : if a reload function could have more than one, it would be easy to make it random from an array in theory
an array of reload animations being picked randomly i mean
