Directional throwing
(1/1)
Sithlordz:
I just noticed, it seems that when throwing, there's now a 0% chance of your throw-ee(?) being lobbed a distance away from you. This is boring. So, my proposition is; let your character throw enemies after grabbing them, but fix it up to make it similar to your current throwing interface. Of course, you couldn't lob them a mile, but it should be further than nothing. The higher your strength, and wrestling levels, the further you can throw.Maybe your proper throwing skill should have an affect, too. Perhaps different varieties of throw, like the "Giant Swing," which clears all enemies around you a square back, by swinging your grabbed enemy by the legs and throwing them, knocking others back in the process, and potentially fatally wounding your throw-ee, could be unlocked by training wrestling.Pissed-off dwarves swinging goblin around by their legs and throwing them in to a large wall covered with spikes = GUD. :3
Sean Mirrsen:
It shouldn't be technically difficult, because throwing is basically punching someone and sending him flying, but without initial damage. Throwing shouldn't be directional, as you can't throw somebody (not without spinning him around) in the same direction that he's standing from you. Most probably you'll be throwing across yourself, in the opposite direction. You won't be able to throw anyone who's on the same tile as you - because either you are under him, or he is under you.
