Grenade Launcher

The Grenade Launcher is a primary weapon in Gun Raiders. It's difficult to use, hard to get kills with, and requires a good knowledge of the grenades trajectory to use effectively. 
== Functionality ==
The Grenade Launcher is a one-handed (or two-handed) weapon. It can be selected through the weapon wheel. The grenades shot are impact grenades that blow up upon contact with players, but they also bounce off of surfaces. They kill non-overshielded players in one shot no matter where you hit, and they deal explosive damage. If the grenades do not come into contact with a player, they will detonate a few seconds later, damaging anyone in range. 
The Grenade launcher can be charged by holding down the trigger, increasing the range and speed of the projectile. The charge up time can be reduced by holding it with two hands. 
The Grenade Launcher is compatible with sidearms.
=== Alternate Modes ===
The Grenade Launcher has an Alternate mode that fires gas grenades, which release a sphere-like area of gas when it explodes. The gas obscures the vision of and causes damage to anyone inside the gas, while also significantly slowing their speed.
== History ==
The Grenade Launcher was introduced when the game was first created.

== Trivia ==
*During the Easter Egg Hunt event, the Grenade Launcher, rather than grenades, shot eggs with a rainbow colored trail.
**The smoke bombs also changed in color, to green for your team and blue for the enemy team.
*Due to common VR lag, the Grenade Launcher can hit people when it seems like it doesn't. Due to VR's need to track multiple body movements, a player is slightly ahead of everyone else. Even if you dodge, on the grenade users screen, it will seem like they hit you.
**This is an issue with Virtual Reality in general, and is not something the developers can actively work on.
*Before the current gas alt, the Grenade Launcher used to have a smoke alt. It worked similarly to gas, though it dealt no damage and didn't slow movement speed.
