shotgun and duel hotbars!#1647

okay so i saw both of these on the discord server and decided to post them here because they were great ideas. the exact wording was “a combat shotgun would be cool as like a later upgrade to the double barrel also maybe like 2 hotbars you could switch between cause usually my hotbar is full and sometimes having a bit more stuff i could swap to would be cool” but i’ll go a bit more in depth.

for the shotgun, i’m thinking that the shotgun should be a trench gun holding 6 rounds and being slamfireable, meaning if you held down the trigger and pumped the shotgun, it would fire every time you pumped forward. if the trenchgun is out of the question, maybe try the Sjögren Shotgun, it holds 5 rounds, is semi-automatic, and it uses the inertia from the weapon going off to rack another round.

as for the toolbar, i’m thinking that it should take the starbound approach, press a button and you’re given an entirely new bar but you can switch back the the other one at any time if you so desire. something else you could do is make the second tool bar be completely dedicated to building and whatnot while the primary is meant for offense and defense outside of the drillship and the wrench, segments, decoration, and all that other stuff just goes to the second while the guns, grenades, and other such items go into the primary tool bar.

i hope that you all enjoy reading this and that these are added because i’m kinda tired of just having the double barrel.
