Warning shots
Time to get your attention.

Have a special command for firearms that allows the user to instantly expend a round into the air. Make it be a red message that displays to all characters in the room, and obviously send a gunshot message to nearby rooms. Would be useful for RP and intimidation.

This is a great idea. I don't think there is a need for a different command though. Just piggyback the sniping code.

shoot with should suffice. All it does is emit gunshot or *click* and drop the ammo count of the pistol. Should be an easy addition.

This feature will allow chums to get much more violent and impulsive without vatting everyone, and there's a time and place for that.

I tried using the search function, but it sadly brought up nothing. I think it's almost definitely been suggested before, though.

Even with rifles, firing a shotgun in the air can really get peoples attention!
