Prone /kneeling Firing

[Jembo]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): The ability for marines to lay down and fire their weapons, or kneel and fire their weapons.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Friendly fire is a dumb mechanic that you really can't avoid thoughout a round. It's understandable why it exists, but Marines who are trained in combat should know how to fire their weapons next to each other without filling someone standing next to them with bullets.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Details would be in the firing tab, marines could go prone, taking somewhere between 10 - 15 seconds to situate themselves on the ground into a firing position. After laying prone, bullets that aren't directly clicked onto that sprite would harmlessly pass over the marine. You could even add a boost to bullet spread as laying on the ground would provide more stability. There would also be a kneeling option in the table when in front of a tipped over table, metal barricade, sandbags, snow pile. This would take less time than the laying prone, and would decrease hit % on non directly clicks to the sprite of said Marine. But the chance would still exist.

This also has a few drawbacks as well, after going prone it'll take a few moments to get back up on your feet. Maybe even leaving their weapon on the ground until they pick it back up. Getting up from kneeling would take less time, and not leave the weapon on the ground. You reduce mobility over safer firing lines, and would have to weigh the risk vrs reward. Maybe even add bullet dodge modifiers to marines who are prone / kneeling.



Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Coding and spriting, I cannot imagine it would be an easy task but I feel like it would greatly improve the game.
