Stack Gun

## General Properties

"Stack Gun Heroes is about inventing guns to blow up robots." The main core of the game engine is the capability to create all kinds of different guns to overcome any kind of situation. This is done through adding mods to the StackGun. These mods come with a wide array of attributes and every mod is different.

The barrel can be split and have different stacks on each barrel. When asked about what looked to be a multi-slotted upgrade path, Nivack commented:

> This is correct. You can mix and match the mods built off of each slot to your heart's content, and even add splitter mods on top of splitter mods. You can also have mods that either fire all shots at once, or allow you to rotate through one at a time. The only limitation is that you can't have more than one of the same mod in the stack, so if you want to split your split (dawg) you'll have to find another one that has that attribute.

The stack can be 8 mods high, but splitting barrels lets you put multiple mods on the same level opening up room for a lot of mods.

## Blueprints

If you create a gun stack that you really like, you can save it as a blueprint and reassemble the stack automatically at any time. These blueprints can be named and can be used to either copy/paste or store whole mods.

> If you drag a stack of mods into the mod list, you can drag whole copies of that stack back out whenever you want in the future.
