    I thought about these two new tacticals and here they are:

    Concussion Grenade
    A tactical that gives you naseau, poison and slowness for 6 seconds. This will be useful to toss in a crowd of players that are racking up kills and just obliterate them.

    Motion Detector
    A tactical that is placeable on the ground (item could be redstone repeater or comparator) that is set off when an enemy steps on it. To prevent it from becoming OP, it will have a 2 second delay before it is set off. It would be useful to set around corners in infect so you won't die from a zombie killing you from behind, or placing it in a hallway on TDM to alert you of a raygun coming your way! I have three ways this could work:

    1.) When it is set off, a message in the chat will appear that reads:
    MOTION DETECTED! Or something like that.
    2.) Similar to when you spawn with c4 you get the c4 and the detonator, you could have the motion detector and a "buzzer" or whatever you want to call it. When the motion detector is set off, the "buzzer" will change textures. Here is what I mean: You spawn in-game. You place your motion detector. Your "buzzer" will be a grey rectangle with a red dot in the middle. When the motion detector is set off, the red button will seemingly be replaced by a green button, alerting you of the enemy. This I know for sure can be coded, because in gun game you switch weapons. This "buzzer" effect will be the same.

    I am not sure if these should be $2 or a war buy option. I know for sure that the motion detector should be $2, though.


    The only bug I could find with this is your teammates setting it off. Hopefully we can find a way around that, too!

    The motion detector seems a little OP to me. Just sit there with a ray gun and wait for the thing to go off and shoot. Maybe a delay would be nice.

    Hmm, will take into thought. Maybe a 3 second delay? That sounds more fair to me.

    1 or 2 second delay, and maybe the shears sound along with it to warn you before it explodes. 3 seconds is a little long, considering that grenades take 5 seconds or so to explode.

    And the motion detector wasn't. Unless everything in the thread is a dupe, there's really no need to point it out. (or unless someone is extremely similar to an older idea)
    Now, for the motion detector, dyes could be used as the buzzer item. Dyes are currently not used for any gun, ammo, etc. so I guess a dye would work. Also, there's a red and green dye, so it would be good for people without the resource pack. (ex: newer players or players who don't like the War resource pack)

    Couldn't you combine dyes with your armor?

    Motion sensor would only work if it is like 8v8 with campers and some other dudes, not 50 players charging around. In order to implement the first idea, we would have to decrease the player amount. And I'm sure that it has more than 50% chance, due to fact that orange voted...

    You can't craft in War. Try putting your clay balls together to make a clay block, it doesn't work.

    TIL this.

    As for the motion detector, I think it would be rather annoying, I know I would go around triggering them just to annoy the person who placed them.

    I feel it would be balanced with the $2 that the user pays for it. :V
