Well, now that we've finally published the first releast of our first major framework for the community, let's take a step back and revisit some of our other addons. One of the things I've been tinkering away at is my own first weapon pack, one that I've posted about before (see here for the Black Hole Generator, here for the pipe bombs, and here for the claymores & land mines)

I noticed that between the Pipe Bombs and the Laser Trip-Bombs, I've started to basically re-implement and re-imagine what the Duke Nukem 3D arsenal would be like in the world of #HideousDestructor, so why not continue that trend and start working on some more?

I bring you, the first iteration of the Ripper Chaingun! This is currently not a lot more than a tripled-barrelled Vulcanette, but I'm hoping to give it a bit more personality as I continue to iterate upon it.

The day has finally come, I have pulled the proverbial trigger and released the first proper version of the core framework/library/abstraction-layer, uh, thing for #HideousDestructor and have begun the laborious process of submitting PRs to various git repos to begin integration! This has been a long time coming, but with more and more players seeking out the version of other addons that leverage the library, along with my multitude of forks that I used during development of said library, the pressure to release this beast can be contained nor put off any longer.

Thank you to everyone who has playtested with this thing over the last several months, and every bit of feedback received has helped push to make this a better toolkit for all of us!
