Data

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 Custom 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 if the bullet's velocity is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it falls to the ground.
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.
