Bug:If painted, Frankenturrets will not bounce around, slide or otherwise be affected by the gel. Players and other physics objects can be launched by bounce-gelled Frankenturrets.
Bug:Due to limitations of the viewmodel grabbing system, picking up frankenturrets in co-op causes them to freeze in a default pose and lose all their face plates. They return to normal when dropped.
