M79 Launcher Gas Weapon Info for DayZ
M79 Launcher Gas
Projectile
The break action M79 Grenade Launcher that fires 40mm Chemical Gas Grenade Rounds. The Chemical Gas Round detonates on impact with any surface in DayZ and does not have a minimum safe distance. Once detonated, gas will emit in a small area around where the gas round hit. This gas will remain for a short amount of time and give players the deadly gas poisoning disease if they remain in the gas. However, because AI cannot get gas poisoning, it will drain their health slowly until they die instead. All projectiles fired from the M79 Grenade Launcher inflict damage similar to other weapons of DayZ and also drop off in damage like them too. Moreover, all 40mm Grenade Road types behave like bullets while in flight like any other firearm in DayZ.

DayZ Projectile Category
The Projectile category in DayZ is considered launchers of other items. For example, a launcher includes items like the Grenade Launcher, Flare Gun, RPG or Crossbow. The word Projectile is a broad term for an independent object under the influence of gravity and air resistance, so could be any object launched from any gun in DayZ. For the sake of simplicity then, the Projectile category in DayZ is reserved for items that fire projectiles, yet don't produce flying bullets. Instead of a bullet an RPG creates a flying rocket projectile, a crossbow creates a flying bolt projectile, a Flare Gun creates a flying Flare projectile, etc.

DayZ weapons have a lot of stats that impact how a weapon will react to different situations. These stats can be changed slightly or drastically by attaching attachments to your weapons in DayZ.
Rifles are long firearms that are powerful and can hit targets accurately at range. Making them a great choice stealthy players that like to shoot from a distance.
Shotguns are incredible dangerous up close, but lack in effectiveness at medium and especially long distance. Shotguns are best used in urban combat for this reason.
