No, at this time there is not, but there are plans to find what causes this to happen (code-wise) and implement the ability to control in future versions of AMXX.... I've asked before... lol

Set the weapon entity's pdata offset 116 to whatever percentage you want to have control over overheating.

Or I can make a forward for the MG Heating like I wanted to, as well as the setting up and dropping now that you have given me the pdata offsets.rnrnCheers!

It seems that 116 is immediately overwritten to its actual value with the MG, just like a player's sequence is. Things that cause this are the real value being an EntityState value which updates constantly, for example. We'll have to find another way to set it.

I think that the MG itself is an entity and that would have its own pdata. Will have to check that out as well. There has to be something somewhere. Lets keep loooking!!!!rnrnHehehehrnCheers!
