Hey everybody, it's Anthony from Gun World here. Lets check out the new update!

The main focus of this update would be the new mag palming mechanic which I think will make reloading more realistic in Gun World. This update will be a bridge before we head into the survival mode for Gun World. I've added more improvements and a new PP Vityaz, full details in update-changelog. Less go.

Update is only available on the alpha1 branch. Switch to alpha1 branch to access it as it uses OpenXR.

Watch on YouTube

Main Features:
-new mag palm mechanic (hold mag near gun and press X with left hand)
-new muzzle smoke effect and tracer wiggle effect for bullets
-new PP19 Vityaz (PDW)
-new gun malfunction mechanic for most auto weapons (occurs for 1 in 5000 shots)

-added backpack mechanics for story mode
-added gun malfunction mechanic to semi auto guns (currently occurs for 1 in 5000 shots, will be different for story mode)
-added slight scaling effect for recoil reduction when two handing, where recoil will scale and reduce depending on how far apart your two hands are when holding the gun (ie. holding the gun with two hands closely won't reduce the recoil as much as holding the gun with the left hand further down the barrel)
-added mag palming mechanic, hold a mag and hover it near an already attached magazine, press and hold X on your left hand to activate mag palming
-added realistic bullet tracer wiggling effect (similar to games like MW2)
