Stun Grenade
Stun Grenade is a grenade type weapon in BATTLEGROUNDS.
Summary
A Stun Grenade, also known as a flash grenade or flashbang, is a grenade with several chemical and metallurgic properties that result in a loud pop and blinding flash of light when detonated. This grenade is meant to cause temporary, not permanent damage, and is great for non-mortal wounding, though it is often used as a precursor to armed conflict to clear rooms and buildings.
The Stun Grenade will cause strong disorientation to everyone within the blast radius (~5m) in the form of a loud ringing and a strong reduction in framerate. If detonated within a player's cone of vision (based off the FPS camera), the player will be completely blinded by white light for several seconds. (Exact timing stat needed)

- Adjusted the friction force of throwables to make rolling movement more consistent and predictable.
- Stun Grenades & Frag Grenades has had friction force decreased to speed up the rolling speed and increase distance they can travel after impacting surfaces.
- Adjusted the friction force of throwables to make rolling movement more consistent and predictable.
