Hitscan ricocheting?

I see.

For a projectile weapon ricochet, it generally uses in the touch function (self.velocity = old_velocity + 2*trace_plane_normal;).

And then, I created an entity which will spawn at trace_endpos, and its angles set to vectoangles(2*trace_plane_normal), and then doing another traceline using makevectors() with the entity's angles and trace using v_forward.

Here are some screenshots, but the shot won't ricochet if fired on the ground... But that's ok. Works just like HL's Gauss Gun (which doesn't ricochet ground shots).

Look around in here for ReboVec.

acording to quake:
newvel = oldvel - (oldvel*planenormal)*2*planenormal;

Where 'vel' can be a direction.
This preserves speed.

Changing the 2 to 1 makes it slide along the plane. Changing it to 1.5 makes it bounce as much as a grenade does. Leaving it as 2 makes it a full bounce. Using 2.5 is silly. 5 is absurd.
