Base weapon properties

Key	Description	Type	Required?	Behavior when absent
AllowFiringOnlyOnRoundStart	If true, then each round, this weapon's RemainingAmmo is refilled to its TotalAmmo if this weapon is using the ammo system, and its CooldownTime is set to the current round's length, in seconds, divided by this weapon's TotalAmmo, ignoring the CooldownTime value defined within the weapon file. In Sandbox mode, or if this weapon isn't using the ammo system, CooldownTime is set to 0.	Boolean	No	Defaults to false
AnimatesTower	Exclusive to Bloons TD Battles.
CanFireWithNoTargetsAndRoundInProgress	If true, during rounds, this weapon will fire without requiring a valid target.	Boolean	No	Defaults to false
CanSelfTargetCamo	If true, this weapon can target and hit Camo bloons, even if the tower itself lacks Camo detection.	Boolean	No	Defaults to false
CanSpotFromOtherTowers	If true, this weapon can target and hit bloons within other towers' range circles, including any Camo bloons within the range circles of towers that can detect Camo, but excluding towers who have CanSpotForTowers set to false.	Boolean	No	Defaults to false
CanTargetUnderground	If true, this weapon can target and hit bloons inside of path segments flagged as tunnels, as if they were not in a tunnel.	Boolean	No	Defaults to false
CooldownTime	An amount of time in seconds. Determines the attack cooldown for attacks, during which the weapon will remain idle even if a target is in range. Determines the ability cooldown for Activated Abilities.	Number	Yes	Weapon functionally stops existing
CostToFire	In Bloons Monkey City, determines the cash cost of using an Activated Ability. The Premium Tower Order and Boss Ability buttons are hardcoded to treat this as a Bloonstone cost rather than a cash cost. Also a valid weapon property in Bloons TD 5, but with no apparent functionality. Inherited from Bloons Monkey City in the Boss Bloon update, seemingly without its functionality to set a cash price to a weapon, and no special buttons were implemented to enable spending Monkey Money or Tokens on select abilities.	Number	No	Defaults to 0
DisabledOnTargetModes		Array of strings	No	Weapon does not disable based on target mode.
DisableSlotWhenOutOfAmmo	If true, this weapon disables itself when its RemainingAmmo is at 0. It does not reenable itself.	Boolean	No	Defaults to false
DrawWhenOutOfAmmo	If true, this weapon will remain visible when its RemainingAmmo is at 0, otherwise it will stop being visible when RemainingAmmo is 0, becoming visible again when RemainingAmmo is not zero.	Boolean	No	Defaults to true
FireDelayTime	An amount of time in seconds. Determines the delay between a weapon firing and its tasks executing, during which the weapon will continually update its target. This plus a weapon's CooldownTime determines its attack speed, as CooldownTime will not count down until the FireDelayTime has finished out. Activated Abilities will resume counting down their CooldownTime even if the FireDelayTime has not yet expired.	Number	Yes	Weapon functionally stops existing
FiresOnRoundEnd		Boolean	No

RequiresTargetToFire	If true, this weapon can only fire if it has a valid target.	Boolean	No	Defaults to true
SelfTargetMode	Locks this weapon to the defined targeting priority, ignoring the targeting priority of its tower.	String	No	The weapon uses its tower's targeting priority.
ShowRange	If false, this weapon will not draw a range circle. CanSpotFromOtherTowers-enabled weapons possessed by other towers will not be able to target bloons using this weapon's range. Otherwise, this is just visual. Activated Abilities are unaffected by this property.	Boolean	No	Defaults to true
SpreadCooldownOverRound	Exclusive to Bloons TD Battles.
StartsOnCooldown		Boolean	No
TargetingArc			No
TargetingFilter			No
TargetRange		Number	No
TargetsIndependently		Boolean	No
