Element CXV/Utilities/Mystery Box

The Pack-a-Punch Machine is a utility featured in Element CXV, including it's storyline Contagion. It was first introduced in the map Pink Pills. When used, the box generates a random weapon from a pool of weapons specific to each map, and after four seconds of cycling the player can swap out their currently held weapon for the new weapon, or add it to an empty slot if they have one. The Mystery Box costs 950 points to use, or 10 points during a Fire Sale.

Usage
The Mystery Box will have multiple areas it can appear in in each map, but only one will be active at any given time. The initial Mystery Box is either set or random depending on the map. When used, the box will cycle through of the weapons available in the Mystery Box pool for the map being played, and after four seconds will stop and allow the player to swap out their weapon for the new weapon the box generated, or add it too their loadout if they have a spare slot. If the player does not pick up the generated weapon within ten seconds, it will despawn and the Mystery Box can be used again. The Mystery Box also has a chance of rolling a lock down, the percentage chance of which increases after each roll. When this happens, the current box will become inactive, and a random box within the map will become active instead, even if the player cannot access it yet.

During a Fire Sale, all Mystery Box spawns become active with a price of 10 points for the duration of the power-up.
