I'm thinking this could be a cool enhancement to gameplay...
Create a new weapon which fires a non-newtonian fluid such as custard in the form of e.g. a flak cannon that can be engineered to be more or less viscous, say, to cause longer or shorter blindness on the target when hit. The custard could be detonatable to make it more of a challenge to hit the target too. It could really spice up combat and would be a non-lethal weapon but would create a real new challenge in the game. Perhaps cockpit wipers could be added too as a module upgrade in a 1 slot?
Furthermore, speedbowling once blind could be awesome fun!!! Perhaps there could be a challenge to continually blind someone while they try and get to highest speeds and escape so that they can then pull up and get between two poles/mountainous terrain, who knows?
Other engineer mods could be more ammo for example, defocussed flak to ensure a wider spread of splat on the target but perhaps reduce the time of blindness in such a scenario.
Perhaps speedier fire rate too?
Anyway, I just thought it would be a cool idea. I'm open to feedback...
Kind regards and o7.
