Yes, this riot shield does block bullets and melee attacks!

It works in multiplayer![/h1] More testing the better!

This mod adds two working riot shields that can block melee attacks and gun fire.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The fact this even works at all is amazing, but it does come with some issues that aren't too major...

1. Durability has nothing to do with blocking hits 2. There's no sparks or anything when it's hit. It just kinda eats the rounds. 3. Expanding on 2, explosive BULLETS do not explode when hitting the shield. Rockets and tank shells work fine though. 4. Melee strikes go through the shield if the attacker is using 3rd person. Something to do with hit detection. 5. Zombies ignore it.

Features

2 black riot shields Ability to block melee strikes and bullets (MP semi-friendly) One without glass can be shot through view-port Melee attacks, a weak bash and a heavy super attack It spawns in police locations on all vanilla maps

Balance

It's actually not overpowered at all. Yes, it can eat anything thrown at it, but it is easy to beat. The armor is directional, which means the user has to be looking dead at the enemy while crouched to be 100% safe. (If using the one with glass, if not, viewport) Being flanked means death, as the shield is a 3x5 primary weapon. The weak melee attack is a quick shove with the shield that does 6 player damage, but the heavy attack can do up to 99 damage to a player. This "super bash" has lots of downfalls though. First being it uses 100% stamina. After that, the whole swing is 7 seconds long, and it doesn't do damage till the 3.5 second mark. To top it all off, when doing this attack, the user exposes themselves to attack.
