Usage
This mod adds the Heartbeat Sensor weapon attachment from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009) as a weapon gadget in PAYDAY 2. It functions in much the same way that the original did- see the video for a demonstration:

* -3 Stability
The Heartbeat Sensor sweeps the surrounding 25-meter radius area for heartbeats and displays their locations on the readout screen.
Friendly IFF signals are denoted in blue; neutral/unregistered or potentially hostile signals will appear in white. (This includes civilians, so watch your fire!)
Applicable Weapons
This attachment is generally only available for primary-slot Assault Rifles, Sniper Rifles, or Shotguns. (As a notable exception, the Piglet is also included, because why not?)
The reason that this gadget is not universally available is that I have to manually set the position of the HBS gadget for each weapon. If I didn't, the gadget would likely be somewhere on the gun that is not visible to the user, rendering it useless.

- Eagle Heavy Rifle

Please note that you can only apply the Heartbeat Sensor attachment to these weapons when they have a left-side optics mount/rail. Certain attachments may be incompatible- make sure that the game does not tell you that you have incompatible attachments for these weapons.

- The model used in this mod was uploaded by Asagrid.

- The scripted functionality, sensor readout screen bitmaps, in-game descriptions, and mod page images were created by Offyerrocker.
Support and Known Issues
Here is a list of known issues with this mod:
- Heist environment bloom settings affect the screen. This means that the screen may be unreadably bright on certain heists, such as Yacht Heist, or merely very difficult to read, such as on Heat Street.
- Light sources and certain objects may render through the screen.
- Detected heartbeats "blips" may rarely linger for a few seconds longer than they should (cause unknown)
- SWAT Turrets will not show up on the Heartbeat Sensor readout, owing to the fact that they do not possess heartbeats. This is intentional.
- Zombie faction enemies (as may be encountered on Cursed Kill Room) still show up on the Heartbeat Sensor readout, even though they don't have heartbeats. This is not intentional.
Planned features:
- Flipping the gadget open or closed when activating it
- Back mesh behind the screen to prevent bug #2, and allow a workaround for bug #1

I don't normally make weapon attachment mods- this is my first- so feedback is especially welcome.
