Engineer Synergy - Revolver and Bonus Pad

Revolver now shoots a beam of pure engineering, becoming a hit scan with a 0.75 second wind up with a 40 stud range. Landing a shot on the killer will make them a bit slow for half a second, landing a shot on your sentry will heal it by 50%, and landing a shot on a teammate's Bonus Pad will extend its timer by 5 seconds. This makes Revolver's cooldown 5 seconds longer but requires no charge or reloading.

Missing Revolver will shorten it's endlag by 0.6 seconds.

Revolver has a special interaction when landing a shot against Killdroid, successfully landing a shot on Killdroid will make their camera shake around horizontally for 0.5 seconds, making any shot slightly inaccurate even in Flight (the tracking system will bug out). It also has a second special interaction when landing a shot on a killbot, successfully landing a shot on a killbot will make it temporarily disabled for 0.8 seconds, thus making it unable to explode or trigger.

Bonus Pad will be replaced with a Sentry that slows down killers whilst dealing 1 damage per bullet, firing a bullet every 0.5 seconds. Placing it down will be 1.5 seconds slower than original indicated by the hammer clangs being slowed. The Sentry will spawn with 25 HP with a range of 15 studs and becomes highlighted once a civilian is near it, the Sentry also acts like a destructible prop which means that it can't destroy a projectile unless it has enough HP to tank it. Only 2 sentries can be present during a round. This makes Bonus Pad's cooldown 10 seconds longer.

The Sentry also has a special interaction, using Bonus Pad whilst near a sentry will upgrade the Sentry instead of putting down a Bonus Pad or another Sentry. The upgrade will extend it's max hp by 5 and gains 5 studs longer range with a max of 3 upgrades on one Sentry. This makes the Bonus Pad's cooldown used to upgrade the Sentry to be 20 seconds shorter.

expected results:
- "bro these sentries are so annoying"
- ENGINEER GAMING (multiple engineers)
- Mild annoyance
- Balanced?
- Fun to mess around with
- Counter to Killdroid if done right
- Awesome TF2 reference
