The Anti-Gravity Cube is a Heavy class thrown gadget that creates a cylindrical area in which contestants and other objects start levitating.
Effects
The Anti-Gravity Cube can be deployed by throwing it. On its first impact, a large cylindrical area (r=7m, h=12m) is projected upwards from the gadget. As with the Dome Shield, the area of effect moves with the gadget. The area goes through surfaces.
Contestants and objects in the area of effect will levitate and slowly move upwards up to the maximum range of the gadget. The Cashout Station can also be moved by this area.
Usage
The Anti-Gravity Cube can be selected as one of three gadgets of any Heavy build loadout.
Holding the primary trigger will prepare a high-velocity overhand throw. Holding the secondary trigger will prepare a low-velocity underhand throw. While preparing a throw, the gadget's trajectory is indicated up to the point where it triggers on impact. Releasing the trigger will execute the throw, whereas swapping to a different item will cancel it.
