The Rancho Relaxo is an Action taunt for the Engineer.
When the player selects it from the taunt menu, the Engineer will put down a toolbox, which unfolds into a lawn chair, complete with several beer bottles and a small umbrella. The Engineer sits on the chair and then proceeds to relax by sipping a beer, belching and saying the occasional voice line. The taunt continues until canceled by the player, in which case the Engineer will rise from his chair while it folds back into a toolbox, unless it is canceled by an outside force.
Demonstration
Update history
June 18, 2014 Patch (Love & War Update)
- Rancho Relaxo was added to the game.
- [Undocumented] Set all taunts to be giftable, nameable, and have craft numbers.
- Fixed a timing problem with the Rancho Relaxo taunt animation.
- Fixed some taunt sound effects that were clipping the character lines.
Bugs
- There is a glitch which can allow many chairs to be spawned by one Engineer.[1]
- On occasion, a player will appear to be stuck in the Rancho Relaxo animation after holding the taunt between rounds. This hinders gameplay in that the hitboxes do not correspond with the model.
- Entering on a teleporter and using the Rancho Relaxo when the player is about to be teleported will cause the weapon FOV to change. This can be fixed by switching classes or dying.
- If you use this taunt while the re-spawn rooms switch team (i.e on Payload), the Engineer will sit sideways.
Trivia
- The name of this item is a reference to a spa of the same name from the animated sitcom The Simpsons.
- The Rancho Relaxo umbrella texture is a modified version of the Hard Counter texture, a cosmetic item for the Heavy.
- The name may also refer to Les Claypool of Primus' ranch of the same name, where the music video for "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver" was filmed.
