Sonic Screwdriver GUI?
It would be really handy if the Sonic had more functions other than just opening doors and tracking a big blue box. In the show, the Sonic Screwdriver does so much more than that; it's a flashlight, a signal beacon, a forensics scanner, a lifesigns detector, a detonator and a whole lot of other stuff. I suggest that there should be a little menu or some kind of GUI you can access to aquire more of these settings.

I have a whole bunch of info about the sonic it says it can blow doors clean off there hinges as seen in the episode dooms day and we all know that this is already a function in garrys mod so this would be easy to add.

Well it already kind of detonates some bombs, (even though it has it's own sound effect for that) but that would be awesome to see it be able to scan creatures (tell you it's health or something) make a beacon, etc. It has plenty of sound effects to work with.

it should have the functions of cookie morfs sonic along with yours matt.

my last comment gave me an idea if you did add 2 modes one like cookiemorfs and the functions of yours you could have your functions and then when you press the mouse 3 buttion aka the wheel thing on a computer mouse it extends! into the functions of cookiemorfs incase we are not clear on this when i say cookiemorfs functions i mean scanning health setting objects on fire flash light destroying turrents/rollermines instead of reprograming them and your optins matt but here is the thing pressing mouse 3 a second time will turn the sonic on flashlight mode pressing mouse 3 a third time will put the sonic in red mode! as seen in the episode could war red mode will controll destroying turrents/roller mines and triggering exploseives and if optional BLOWING DOORS CLEAN OFF THERE HINGES! SO MATT PLEAS READ THIS i spent alot of time writting this and its full of all the featurs of the sonic think about this this would be the purfect oportunity to add a red mode and make the sonic extend.

Well, how would you do that? Also, not all mice have the third button, because some players will be using touchpads. Also, there's already a flashlight in GMod (yes, I know why you want this, but still. :P), and how would you make the sonic itself extend? Most weapons in GMod don't work like that. :)

As techno said not all mice have a middle button and I don't want to exclude any users. I'd have to make it some other button or maybe make it bindable to whatever you want, with M3 as default? idk - the model doesn't even have an extending animation

It would be very cool if someone could re-model the sonic screwdriver, and add an animation :P

Radioactive Grass 24 May, 2014 @ 1:53pm 
well not all mice have a right clicker eather let me tell you apple sucks i had to get a new mouse just to completly oporate my entire computor
Radioactive Grass 24 May, 2014 @ 1:59pm 
when i tiyped computor it added the harts
techno156 24 May, 2014 @ 4:58pm 
Well, I think apple mice have a right-click, though it's command+click, something like that, or it's configurable on the mouse settings panel (Depending on type/version)
Radioactive Grass 24 May, 2014 @ 6:50pm 
nope it did not work with the phisics gun and it did not work with all my mods that had a right click featur so i had to buy a new mouse it also did not have the wheel.
