Data
- The Jet Squelcher is a middleweight weapon.
- When initially firing the weapon in kid form, the first bullet takes 3 frames to come out.
- When firing from squid form, the first bullet takes 8 frames to come out.
- When firing continuously, it has a fire rate of 8 frames between bullets.
- When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.6 units per frame.
- After firing, there is a 20 frame cooldown before your ink tank starts refilling.
- If a bullet is in the air for more than 9 frames after being fired, it loses 1 damage per frame until it reaches 16 damage at frame 25.
- Bullets have a radius of 2 units.
- The angle its shots can deviate while on the ground is 3 degrees.
- The angle its shots can deviate while in the air is 8 degrees.
- The outer reticle immediately expands after jumping. After 25 frames, the outer reticle will start shrinking, and will finish shrinking after 70 frames.
- The Jet Squelcher starts off having a 2% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle.
- This chance increases by 1.5% per shot, and maximizes at a 25% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle. Meaning that it takes 16 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 1% per frame, if the chance is not already at the minimum. Meaning that it takes 23 frames to reach maximum accuracy. (38 after shooting while jumping.)
- Bullets initially travel at a rate of 33.6 units per frame for 5 frames, having an effective range of 168 units.
- After that, the bullet's velocity is set to 22.32 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 212.64 units if the weapon is shot straight ahead.
- Paint droplets occur every 100 units.
- The frequency at which paint drips from a bullet occurs at a rate of 2.4 droplets per shot.
- There are a total of 8 different droplet patterns that can be created while firing this weapon.
- Droplets that occur within 11 units of the player have a radius of 18 units, and a width of 13 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 16 units.
- All other paint droplets have a radius of 12 units.
