Deflect grenades - bounce grenades away from you.

Polaris is Magneto's daughter and she is able to control the electromagnetic spectrum in a manner similar to Magneto albeit to a slightly lesser degree.
Her personal polarity is opposite that of Magneto's.


Based on sh_penguin by Yang/vittu and sh_magneto by AssKicR/JTP10181.
Special thanks to vittu for his suggestions that really improved the hero's code


UPDATE::
- Beter boost code
- teammates and yourself can now boost away your grenade. So now you can play volleyball with your teammates
- removed some stupid code mistakes
- removed some coding mistakes
- Grenades timer resets when being bounced back
- renamed from magneto2006 to polaris
- cleaned up the code a bit
- fixed bug where the timer of a penguin grenade also got reset and bounced back and forth the rest of the round
- invalid entity error fixed
- code improved by vittu

Wow, you've just made the hero that will add the funnest time of all on any server.

How many people can do it at a time? Like if one person throws a grenade, other person bouces it back, and another person jumps in. Could it happen?

[K-OS]

What i have seen:

A CT throws a grenade to Terrorist1.
Terrorist1 bounces it back, but Terrorist2 jumps infront of the gren and bounces it back to Terrorist1.
Then everyone run away as fast as possible cause the CT has the Juggernaut hero.


Maybe i also should add some more uplift to make it easier to get under it.

Nice hero. Could be cool on HE_TENNIS

[Mr.Eat Fresh]

Hmm, so, pretty much theres no way of getting a volleyball official match going right? =D

[K-OS]

mmm new minimod idea

[Emp`]

thanks for coming out of the blue k-os, seems like a nice hero ill look at code later, want me to convert it to module for ya?

question: lets say ct has penguin and t has mag2006, where would the nade go? would it just sort of hover around the t? or what?

[YodaGman]

lol instead of magneto you shouldev called it Tom Brady or Mcnabb

[K-OS]

Yeah i got penguin too. You'll see the grenade bounce back and forth, kinda weird but i don't know what to do else with it.


I'm now working on sh_storm - Create a tornado.
Looks really cool during tests, but i still need to add the grafics.


Tom Brady?? The football player?

Nice idea, I think the original Magneto was made just show it could be done. Most of the stock heroes are more like examples of things that can be done.
