M4A1 - A Character Mod for Risk of Rain 2

Adds M4A1, a custom playable survivor based on the character from Girls' Frontline.

Overview

• M4A1 is a ranged survivor who thrives in short bursts of engagements, picking off enemies with her echelon.
• She can assist in dispatching overwhelming enemy forces in size or numbers through high-energy blasts from her Particle Cannon.
• However, her relatively fragile frame means that she must rely on her positioning and movement to continue or retreat from her battles.

This mod supports the following...

	Multiplayer
	Custom Emotes
	Ancient Scepter

Known Incompatibilities

Deployable Slots

As this mod revolves around getting a valid deployable slot, anything that doesn't correctly implement Deployables via the R2API Deployable package will inadvertently change the amount of M4s that can be summoned at once.

If incompatible mods are in the modpack, mods that do implement deployables correctly, e.g. Rifter, will also affect this mod by changing the limit to some other number.
