Bugs
- Using with Taunt: The Schadenfreude you cant see weapon and hands.
- Upon drawing the weapon in high-pinged servers, the engineer's hands clip through its model. It still uses the pistol draw animation.
- Pressing the secondary attack button (default mouse2) will play half-life's "use" sound. Nothing else happens.
