Physgun Tendrils

Description
NOTE: This is a rather experimental addon I whipped up quickly just for fun. It doesn't work properly in many cases and I'm not going to continue developing it, sorry :(

This addon replaces the physgun beam with multiple energy tendrils that grab onto objects from different angles. This is a purely visual effect and does not change the behavior of the physgun at all. This will work properly with reskins, but there's no guarantee with physgun model replacements.

You can configure the number of beams with:
physgun_tendril_count [1-10] (default 3)
For example if you want 5 beams you would put into the console:
physgun_tendril_count 5
There are four textures to use which can be selected with:
physgun_tendril_style [1-4] (default 2)

I know you're not developing it but you think you'd be able to make it so that it uses more or less tendrils the bigger or smaller something is? I'd even be okay with a change that just makes it default to the original beam if something is too small but no pressure.
