 * After firing, there is a 25 frame cooldown before your ink tank starts refilling.
 * If a bullet is in the air for more than 8 frames after being fired, it loses 0.90625 damage per frame until it reaches 14.5 damage at frame 24.
 * Bullets have a radius of 2 units.
 * The angle its shots can deviate while on the ground is 1 degrees.
 * The angle its shots can deviate while in the air is 6 degrees.
 * The L-3 Nozzlenose D starts off having a 1% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle.
 * This chance increases by 1% per shot, and maximizes at a 25% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle. Meaning that it takes 24 shots to reach minimum accuracy.
 * When jumping, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle is immediately set to 40%.
 * When not shooting, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle decreases by 0.5% per frame, if the chance is not already at the minimum. Meaning that it takes 48 frames to reach maximum accuracy. (78 after shooting while jumping.)
 * Bullets initially travel at a rate of 27.5 units per frame for 4 frames, having an effective range of 110 units.
 * After that, the bullet's velocity is set to 15.68 units for 2 frames if the bullet's velocity is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it falls to the ground.
 * This results in a range at approximately 141.36 units if the weapon is shot straight ahead.
 * Paint droplets occur every 120 units.
 * The frequency at which paint drips from a bullet occurs at a rate of 1.5 droplets per shot.
 * There are a total of 15 different droplet patterns that can be created while firing this weapon.
 * Droplets that occur within 11 units of the player have a radius of 19.5 units, and a width of 14 units.
 * These droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1.2 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.4 if they fell from a height below 30 units.
 * Droplets that occur when they travel past 200 units of the player have a radius of 19.5 units.
 * All other paint droplets have a radius of 15.5 units.
 * Droplets that are far from the player and all other droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.2 if they fell from a height below 30 units.
