So I was playing some zombies with a friend and wanted to do something with gsc. Just to remember the good old golden days. Thought of making a custom powerup and unlimited ammo seemed like a pretty cool one.
So it'll drop on the ground randomly just like any powerup, and when someone picks it up, every player gets unlimited ammo for 30secs. Duration can be easily changed, of course.
This is not intended for Turned or Grief. I have no idea what happens if you try to use them there. Nothing good I'd assume.
Cba'd to make it work with them because who needs unlimited ammo in Turned, and who tf plays Grief.
Other than that, should be all good. Managed to even spam myself with the powerup over 2000 times in a row with no issues.
EDIT: Seems the shader I'm using for the icon wont load in all maps KMS KMS KMS KMS KMS KMS. I fucking cba trying to find one that works. Shit's fucking impossible. I can deal with a checkerboard icon in some maps.

Hope someone finds some use, or maybe figures out how to add their own custom powerups, post them down below if you do.
And if you have any ideas for improvement, or other custom powerups, or any other custom stuff, post them down below. I might make them if I find them cool.
