which extends UTWeaponAttachment. This class determines how the weapon connects
with your pawn when in a third person perspective.
The preceding screenshot shows the wizard for your ammunition. This is the easiest class
to create, as it only requires a mesh, default starting count, and sound effect for when it is
picked up. It extends UTAmmoPickupFactory, which we'll touch on more in a later tutorial.

f 3P Mesh: This is the skeletal mesh for this socket. Generally left empty.
f Muzzle Flash Socket: This determines where the flash will occur in relation to the
weapon when it is fired.
