LockonLauncher

The LockonLauncher is one of the many weapons in Meme Attack. It can be bought in the Shop for 10,000 points. It shoots explosive missiles which have the ability to lock onto targets. It's also one of the few weapons that have explosions able to fling players, memes, vehicles, etc. A lock-on can be preformed by simply hovering your mouse over a target for a few seconds. Only memes can be locked onto. Firing a missile while being locked on a target will result in the missile beelining towards its target. It will automatically adjust itself so it will always be pointing and flying towards the target it's locked onto. If it's fired without being locked on, the missile will simply travel straight.

Strategy & Tips

 * Excellent weapon for long-range sniping thanks to its lock-on mechanic.
 * Great for dealing with large mobs of memes due to firing explosive rounds.
 * Its missiles are able to fling objects, such as players, memes, and vehicles upon exploding.
 * If used properly, this allows players to easily access high areas, such as rooftops.
 * Try to avoid using the LockonLauncher in close-range combat to avoid accidentally flinging yourself.
 * The LockonLauncher can deal more damage to mobs if there is a small space around, such as vehicles.

Special features
Explosive rounds: Rounds shot from this launcher are explosive, and therefore deal splash damage.

Lock-on & lock-on UI: A red icon will appear when aiming at a meme, along with a beeping sound. This icon also displays the meme's distance from the player in studs. The icon will shrink and the beeping sound will become more rapid when fully locked onto a target.

Flinging Explosions: Its explosions can fling several objects. This can be used as an advantage in several ways:


 * Allows players to reach tall areas, such as rooftops
 * Has an extreme fling effect on vehicles, which can be used to quickly escape a situation.
 * However, be careful while using this method, as you can get flinged to a very far distance.
