If that's the case that sucks, however maybe they could be changed to be independent weapons in the future, not likely though unless the community has support for it

For context, the weapons I am talking about are the default half life 2 weapons in the CC editor. Those weapons still use their default damage values, so compared to the rest of the guns on the server they have painfully low damage. My suggestion is to simply increase the damage for these weapons so that they can better fit into the current combat system. The original HL2 weapons in my opinion are really cool and fun to use, and I believe a simple damage balance can put these weapons to good use. they are pretty fun to use, after all. Now I am not super into PVP or know much about balancing, so this could completely depend on what balance needs to be done, so here is my suggestion for the new damage values. Pistol: 30 damage per shot AR2: 25 damage per shot SMG: 20 damage per shot Shotgun: 80 Per Shot (Pellet amount adjusted however needed) 357: 100 Damage per shot This is all open to change but I really hope we can put more light into these guns cause personally, I think they are pretty cool.

I recently thought of the idea of a functioning "plant trimmer" tool when farming. the basic idea of this tool is that it would allow you to remove plants easily without having to shoot them or damage them in other ways. this could also be worked to give you a certain return on "trimming" unfinished plants. pulling a %50 grown plant would give you 1 lb of a drug, and %75 would give you 2lb of a drug. those are just ideas for the values, however i think adding something to deal with annoying dead or ungrown plants could help improve the efficiency of farming. it could also be a new source of xp, giving a small amount of xp for removing dead crops. let me know what you guys think of this idea, and what could change.

+1 a class counter to aliens sound good, especially if they could be given special rp oppertunities
