Figured out how to make MC pick up any weapon

Okay, here's what you have to do (I'm going to be using the FRG as an example, in Two Betrayals).

First, go to the meta offset of the starting weapon (Plasma Pistol). Then add 30C. You should see this:

pp.lasma rifle......rifle

Copy it. Now, go to the meta offset of the FRG (plus 30C). You should see this:

fr.le...............rifle

Simply replace this with the text you copied from the Plasma Pistol. Then, swap the Plasma Pistol weapon with the Fuel Rod weapon. When you start the level, you'll be holding a Fuel Rod Gun (it has to charge for a second before shooting).

I haven't tested it yet, but I think this would work for other weapons too.

Hey guys, my friend Enixile is editing the Weapon plugin for HMT to let you do this easier. Expect to see it soon.

I have a question and this seemed to be an appropriate post: is there a way to make the monitor able to pick up weapons? I'm trying to finish the level the maw with the monitor and you cant finish it without shooting people.
