Many players think of the [[Grenade Launcher]] upon reading the phrase, while game coding uses the phrase "pipes" to describe [[Sticky Bomb Launcher|stickies]]. For example, phrases like "pipes do not suffer damage fall-off" and "use cloak to get past pipes" would be more appropriately phrased "Grenades do not suffer damage fall-off" and "use cloak to get past Stickies." | |||
