When you have weapons and then drop them for one reason or another (like the butter fingers crate) you still see the weapons in your HUD but can't select them.
Not a big deal but figured I'd mention it.

if you have a beacon and get butter fingers, then you can't buy a new one, which is a big deal Sad

I believe that is just from bad server-side code. There are servers with drop commands that remove it from your HUD. I know atomix does but that might be with the help of RR. And I cant remember but i think Black-Cell had the correct coding to remove it from the NUD

Never noticed that, but tested to check it out and you're right.
Also noticed the weapon still appears on your back in 3rd person mode.

I tested on a vanilla server with nothing but SSGM 2.0.2 and the no-pending patch.
Also tested on my primary server with SSGM updated to scripts 3.4.4 and RR with no difference.
I didn't test on a completely fresh fds since I don't know how I would drop my weapons this way o_O

But you have to stand still for like 30 seconds to place it...

Okay maybe I misunderstood that one, it would be nice it the 3rd person model would hide when you had no ammo left...

i mean custom scripts from the server, not the ones the client has installed.
