Easy Archery: Bug or Feature?

Open somethingfinite opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Possibly.

Currently, bows are about ten times easier to use than any weapon in Arx.

For instance, most well-crafted bows are giving a roughly -11 or -12 difficulty modifier as a result of this line of code, compared to a -1 or -2 for a comparable medium weapon.

Describe the solution you'd like Changing this line of code to something sensible instead of what amounts to -10 difficulty. For instance, changing -= to +=, which I think may have been the intent.

https://github.com/Arx-Game/arxcode/blob/af72ad4572ef7bc40278e203cc4895a0c894678a/typeclasses/wearable/wieldable.py#L193

Describe alternatives you've considered That this is a feature, not a bug. A weird balance choice, though, given arrows already can't be parried.
