Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades Update 114 Experimental Build 1
The first experimental build for Update 114 in Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades adds the Big Franking Fifty firearm and updates the Tractor tool for easier base building. It also resolves weapon handling bugs for the Carl Gustaf and bolt-action firearms.
Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades has launched Update 114 Experimental Build 1 on the Alpha branch, bringing a new .50 BMG rifle, tool adjustments, and multiple weapon bug fixes.
New Firearm and Tool Adjustments
Update 114 adds the Big Franking Fifty, a new firearm chambered in .50 BMG. The Tractor Pistool now calculates placement casting using only static environment objects, allowing players to clip physics-locked objects together more easily when building ranges. Center of mass values for the Comp Barrier Set were also altered to reduce accidental tipping.
Weapon Handling and Physics Fixes
Bolt-action weapons have a refactored magazine ejection system that stops errant drops when laser grabbing. Laser-grabbing Comp Barrier objects no longer permanently removes their collision with player navigation. The update also fixes an issue where the Carl Gustaf could be operated from its fore handle, corrects bubble level shader lighting and normals, and prevents bolt-action chambers from catching on empty grabs.
Why this patch matters
Build 1 delivers helpful quality-of-life adjustments for range builders alongside essential weapon fixes and a heavy new rifle.
