Gluon Gun

Note: the gluon gun is a 1.12.2 exclusive feature.

The gluon gun is from half life 1, the weapon shoots a direct beam of radiation, and anything that touches it becomes vaporized. It is quite expensive to initially make and use.

Appearance
The only part of the gluon gun visible from first person is the barrel of it, however the entire weapon is modeled, and you can see the backpack in 3rd person.

 * However, it does not generate any radiation around the fired area.
 * The placeable geiger counter isnt affected.
 * The barrel and the backpack arent connected in any way.
 * possibly because of technical limitations.


 * If the player has an invisibility effect, the backpack disappears with the player.
