I like spinecrushers and trachs. Also, there's something particularly satisfying about nailing a rabbit with a throwing knife when they're charging towards you. :3

I find it even more satisfying to nail them as they try to escape: the longer the throw, the more satisfying.

Best of all is nailing them in mid-air, as they sail off a floating block and plummet to a sticky end.

Meh. Much more fun to leg cannon people -- especially wolves -- charging towards you. Wolf dashing is so fast that using their own momentum against them usually produces hilarious results. Throwing a corpse at a charging wolf is fricking awesome.

Oh, by the way, I was looking back through the thread and found people mentioning a bug in which you instantly appear at the bottom of a block after standing on top of it. It's simple to activate: face the center of the block and press back + attack. ^_^ Yup, back-handspringing off of a block usually drops you straight to the ground below it, sans falling damage. Quite useful.

My favorite way to kill is to Kill the Enemy and then Put his nose in my ass and fart loudly...

I think you'll find that's something along the lines of "Pharting". Teabagging is different. :lol:

Meh. It looks the same, considering there are no console commands for the details. Thankfully.

Here's another long knife throw, this time downwards off L5.

I think it's the longest I've recorded; I'm pretty sure I've had longer, but I didn't catch those.

You can see the knife flash in the sun just before it strikes, then the gout of blood.

I think next time I'll throw a sword; it's easier to see.

Haven't been able to reproduce your results; you better submit your documentation for peer review.

you can throw swords? First I've heard of it. Then again I am still a newbie to Lugaru, so I'm still getting my head round some of the debug controls.

Change the knife into a sword while you are still doing the "throwing" animation.

^^; that leaves me still confused. How do I change the knife into a sword? (or a bo staff for that matter, I noticed on the Hellish Screenshots thread that someone threw a bo staff into an opponent)

Rename the appropriate files.

If you want the sword for a knife, copy the model and the textures of the sword, copy the knife model and textures into a backup folder or whatever, then rename the sword copys so that they have knife names.

It's generally a good idea to backup the whole Data folder before messing with it.
