It does more damage than the crowbar, but it's also much slower. + +Since `weapon_stunstick` is an existing weapon in HL2 and picking it up normally just gives players suit armor, a keyvalue on the new `hl2_gamerules` entity is capable of controlling what should happen when a player picks up a stunstick. + +
