Attempting a Rechargeable Plasma Rifle

Rechargeable Plasma Rifle

PROS
Recharges
Doesn't Overheat

CONS
Drains Shields during recharge
Short battery life (Maybe 100 shots until dead battery)

SNAGS
-I'll have to use magazines for it... not a physical mag, but the stuff under "magazines" in its tag. Does that mean I need reserve ammo to recharge it, or is there a flag I can set that allows it to reload without any reserve ammo? Or a flag that gives it infinite ammo?
-I'll have to make a custom magazine counter for it, but that's no big deal. I'll look for a tut, don't help me on this one.
-Debating on making it age... a battery can be recharged only so many times, right?

this proly could work but proly not worth the works heh.. im not shure if theres another way to dot his but make it have a magazine make it have a secondary fire and have it so it hurts u or mb jus a damage effect that slowly will hurt ur shield then make ammo magazines for the plasma ritfle spawn as u hold secondary fire good idea?? might work
