I might be thinking a bit too far into this, but considering the name and the item's level, could the item's details be a reference to the film "Short Circuit?" After all, this item is called "Short Circuit" and the item is level 5, as in Number 5 from the movie. Like I said, I'm probably thinking too far into this.

Is it meant to destroy ''both'' team's projectiles?
 
−
The item discription never mentioned enemy projectile only projectiles in general.
 
−
This means that destroying teammate's projectile as well as enemy's projectile is not a bug.
 
−
 
 
−
Here is the weapon's discription:
 
−
Short Circuit
 
−
Level 5 Shotgun
 
−
On Fire: Generates an electrical field that destroys projectiles and does slight damage to players
 
−
No reload necessary
 
−
Per Shot: -35 ammo
 
−
Uses metal for ammo
 
−
No random critical hits
 
−
 
 
−
It's sort of implied. Weapons that have an "On Kill" attribute don't specify killing an enemy, yet that's how it works. [[User:Maggosh|mag]][[User talk:Maggosh|gosh]] 07:22, 19 August 2011 (PDT)

:I'm inclined to believe the same thing; I don't really think we can list it as a bug since it does not specifically list enemy projectiles as being destroyed.  I'm going to change the entry accordingly.  [[User:ButteredToast|ButteredToast]] 07:39, 19 August 2011 (PDT)

== Its not just the shotgun ==

when using it and the gunslinger, the gunslinger dosent just not show up on the shotgun, but also the build/demolish tool and when holding a toolbox.[[User:Ihasnotomato|Ihasnotomato]]

== Delete Projectile ==

−
Hi and now I tested this weapon with many types of projectile I can. So It can delete these projectile.
 
−
* Rocket
 
−
* Arrow
 
−
* Sticky Bomb
 
−
* Grenade from Grenade Launcher
 
−
But I don't sure about
 
−
* Bison
 
−
* Jarate/Mad Milk
 
−
* Sandman Ball
 
−
* Flare
 
−
* Syringe
 
−
Then can someone tested? [[User:Hinaomi|Hinaomi]] 06:27, 20 August 2011 (PDT)
 
−
:Presumably it can destroy anything that can be reflected, which means it can destroy baseballs and flares but not syringes or Bison shots. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] 11:00, 20 August 2011 (PDT)

I know the page said that it's a handheld device, but Larolaro, the items creator, said that it's an augmented arm. Not only that, but the wide end of the weapon (the one closer to the screen) is the same color of the Engie's glove. Shouldn't this be called an augmented arm instead of a handheld device?

"The" Short Circuit

Currently going over all of the existing weapons and their stat cards on the wiki to make sure they're accurate to their in-game variants, and it appears that in-game there is a "The" in the Short Circuit's name, which the wiki's version lacks. I also don't see a way in the editor to fix this. The Salt God (talk) 03:02, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

The infobox had "| loadout-prefix = none" which was overriding the "The". Should be fixed now. Mediarch User Mediarch PFP.png ♥ Talk ♥ My Edits 03:08, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
