Weapons (please read and discuss)

[Macgyverthehero]

We all understand that weapons are a bad idea for a game like this, but could someone at least try to see if it is possible?

Think about handheld torch you see in some Custom Stories, you hold it, and then it moves in a position that looks like you using your left hand to carry it.

In an old and not-so successful game called Jurassic Park: Trespasser, when you pick up weapons they cannot be reloaded and it requires you to save ammunition.

Combine these two ideas and then you have a Firearm. Melee weapons could work as well with this concept if you choose to abandon the combat system from Penumbra: Overture.

So, I believe weapons made and used in the HPL2 Engine are possible. We know Frictional's games don't need weapons but we've never actually seen any attempt made at making a weapon within the HPL2 Engine as I described.
