Pending Improvements

- Right click to aim, like a bow
+ Being able to hold right click to aim with a javelin/shuriken/axe before throwing it would be nice.
- General feedback/improvements to implement from Drago himself:

• Javelins- Need more distance, little less arc Movement penalty should be 2% IMO The noise that registers is too loud/goes to far. Boars alert from across the map on a throw at something else
• [8:23 PM]Axes-Little more distance with more arc than the javelins IMO
  Other than that they are great
• [8:25 PM]Shuriken- Almost perfectSpread could be a little less or get less with skill increase
  Launch spot is too low. Needs increased a bit
• Would like to see them auto select the next throwing weapon in your inventory like arrows when the one in use breaks.
• [8:27 PM]I think the durabilty could be increased, depending on if you can get that auto equip going.

Special Thanks

- Drago for commissioning the mod.
- Clint Bellanger for the Shuriken models.
- Leinnan for the Slavic Axe Pack. CC-BY 3.0 stipulates I must indicate whether changes were made: Yes, the texture was resized to be 32x32 and passed through noise filters in Gimp to make it grainy and lower resolution. This is so it blends in better with the Valheim aesthetic.
