Kaboom Guns transforms your configured weapons into rocket launchers, allowing players to fire one or multiple rockets per shot instead of standard projectiles. The plugin features a sleek UI panel for toggling rocket mode and adjusting rocket count, with full control over rocket types, speeds, cooldowns, and ammo consumption. Perfect for creating unique PvP experiences, special event weapons, or fun admin tools.
Features
- Transform any weapon into a rocket launcher with customizable settings
- Fire multiple rockets simultaneously with adjustable spread patterns
- Configurable rocket types (basic rockets, high-velocity rockets, etc.)

- Adjust rocket count per shot (1-5 rockets) via UI controls
- Sleek HUD panel showing rocket mode status, ammo count, and controls
- Optional permission requirement for using rocket mode

General Settings
Require Permission To Use-- When enabled, players must have thekaboomguns.usepermission to use rocket mode.Chat Command-- The chat command players use to toggle rocket mode (set to empty string to disable).
UI Settings
Show UI Panel-- Displays the UI panel showing rocket mode status, ammo count, and controls.Anchor Min (Unity UI anchor point)-- Unity UI anchor point for the panel's base position (format: "x y" where values range 0-1).Anchor Max (Unity UI anchor point)-- Unity UI anchor point for the panel's base position (format: "x y" where values range 0-1).Offset Min (pixel offset from anchor)-- Pixel offset from the anchor point to position the panel (format: "x y" in pixels).Offset Max (pixel offset from anchor)-- Pixel offset from the anchor point to position the panel (format: "x y" in pixels).Ammo Bar Maximum Display Value-- The maximum ammo count used to calculate the ammo bar fill percentage (e.g., 100 means 50 rockets shows 50% full).
Default Settings
These settings apply to all weapons unless overridden in individual weapon configurations.Default Rockets Per Shot-- The default number of rockets fired per shot when a weapon doesn't specify an override (players can adjust this via UI up to the maximum).Maximum Rockets Per Shot-- The maximum number of rockets players can fire simultaneously (caps the UI adjustment controls). Values above 10 may cause server lag.Rocket Launch Speed-- The velocity multiplier for launched rockets when a weapon doesn't specify an override (standard rocket speed is ~15.0, so 80.0 is much faster).Cooldown Between Shots Seconds-- The minimum time in seconds between rocket shots when a weapon doesn't specify an override (0.0 means no cooldown).Consume Rockets From Inventory-- When enabled, each rocket fired consumes one rocket item from the player's inventory based on the weapon's configured rocket ammo type.Suppress Normal Bullet Projectiles-- When enabled, prevents the weapon from firing normal bullet projectiles when rocket mode is active, firing only rockets.Multi-Rocket Spread Angle In Degrees-- The angular spread between rockets when firing multiple rockets simultaneously (lower values 1-5 create tight spreads, higher values 10-30 create wide spreads).
Weapon Settings
Each weapon entry in the Weapons array defines a specific weapon that can fire rockets.Weapon Item Shortname-- The item shortname of the weapon to enable rocket mode for (e.g.,rifle.ak,rifle.lr300,rifle.bolt,pistol.python,shotgun.pump).Rocket Ammo Item Shortname-- The item shortname of the rocket ammo consumed from inventory when firing (e.g.,ammo.rocket.basic,ammo.rocket.hv,ammo.rocket.fire). Leave empty if not consuming ammo.Rocket Entity Prefab Path-- The full Unity prefab path for the rocket entity to spawn (e.g., assets/prefabs/ammo/rocket/rocket_basic.prefab, assets/prefabs/ammo/rocket/rocket_hv.prefab).Rockets Per Shot Override (set to 0 to use default)-- Overrides the default rockets per shot for this specific weapon (set to 0 to use the "Default Rockets Per Shot" value).Rocket Speed Override (set to 0 to use default)-- Overrides the default rocket launch speed for this specific weapon (set to 0 to use the "Rocket Launch Speed" value).Cooldown Override Seconds (set to -1 to use default)-- Overrides the default cooldown between shots for this specific weapon (set to -1 to use the "Cooldown Between Shots Seconds" value).
