… energy weapon mechanics) (#81819) ## About The Pull Request Thermal pistols now can be 'cranked' in order to reload them, similar to a smoothbore disabler. Each 'crank' recharges one shot out of 8 shots. And by crank, I mean you SPIN THE GUN. In order to spin guns, you need a holster. So, without a holster, you can't utilize this mechanic of the pistols. (Also they're more accurate while dual-wielded hoo haa) Thermal pistol crates are now slightly more expensive, at 2000 credits. (is this even a balancing point now that we have stocks?) ## Why It's Good For The Game People really liked what was going on in this [PR with the gun flipping resulting in a reload](tgstation/tgstation#76076). However, it was...maybe a little too strong. As a more middle ground approach, the gun crank component was a particularly helpful addition to the game that allows for things like...slow bullet-by-bullet reloading of even energy weapons. ## Changelog :cl: balance: Thermal pistols can now be 'cranked' to recharge shots. You must have a holster equipped in order to utilize this feature. Also, they have a tighter dual-wield cone. balance: Thermal pistol crates are now 2000 credits, up from 1400 credits. /:cl:
## About The Pull Request Uses ADD_CLOTHING_TRAIT to store a ref to the individual holster item that's providing the gunflip trait. This fixes an issue that was happening where having one holster equipped and dropping or unequipping another would remove the trait from you, even though you were still wearing one. ## Why It's Good For The Game Fixes #83762 ## Changelog :cl: fix: Fixed thermal pistols sometimes not recognising an equipped holster when trying to spin them to recharge. /:cl:

are cherry-picked in this PR.
I want to atleast get these in before messing around with bringing in the BR-38 and further changes from that.
This has a few manual tweaks in order to move the laser crank sound to its newer position following some sound reorganization.
