About this mod
Adds reasonable (or optionally unreasonable) impact force for thrown items. Also options for disabling lock-on for certain item sets you don't need it for like grenades and impact items.

Inspired by Cyb's Lock-on Adjustments, I realized I was basically always turning off lock-on for most of the explosive/grenade items, and avoiding using them as a result. Also, briefcases in the vanilla game are basically just worse versions of thrown KO items. Moving slower and not having any impact on the target. This mod aims to change both things with the following features, all optional:
Impact Force - KO items: Adds realistic(ish) impact force to KO items. Feels MUCH more satisfying to knock out NPCs with thrown items
Impact Force - Lethal items: Adds impact force to heavy lethal throw items. I left the small lethal items alone because they feel pretty good in vanilla already. Battle axe might be my fav :)
No Lock-on: Grenades & Proximity Items - Removes lock-on for grenades, proximity explosives, impact explosives, and other items like the durian, chloroform flask, explosive baseball, etc.
No Lock-on: Remote Explosives & Items - Removes lock-on for pretty much all other explosive items, as well as remote taser and similar items.
Briefcase - Faster Throw - Speeds up briefcase velocity, with an array of options for how much impact force to have
- Human Strength: Realistic(ish) briefcase impact force, knocks people over pretty good
- 47 Strength: Slightly stronger than human strength, enough impact force to knock people over ledges, feels natural like it belongs in WoA
- Extreme Strength: Very strong knockback, enough to throw NPCs over full height fences
- Actually Ridiculous Strength: Sends NPCs absolutely flying, briefcases also boomerang back to you
- TO THE MOON: as described
- Charc0al's recommendation: A curated mix of the different strengths, almost all briefcases are "47 Strength" as that feels most natural, with the Sieger 300, Purple, and Chinese briefcases having the more powerful knockback settings.
Throw - Dot Reticle - Changes the obnoxiously large throw targeting reticle to a dot
Throw - Hide Arc - Hides the 3d throw arc for a cleaner looking throw UI
ICA Homing Banana - Just a bit of fun
