Description:

This mod is W.I.P. An improved version of the original bow and arrow mod. THIS ISN’T AN ADDON, YOU DO NOT NEED THE ORIGINAL FOR THIS TO WORK.
In fact, this conflicts with the original mod.

This includes:

11 NEW ARROW TYPES;

FULLY WORKING HEADSHOT SYSTEM!

UPDATED TEXTURES;

NEW BOW AND QUIVER PREFAB;

There will be more updates with new arrow types.

Description for new arrow types:

1. Single Fire Arrow:
Lights the enemy on fire upon impact;

2. Fire Explosion Arrow:
Creates an explosion upon impact, lighting enemies on fire;

3. Standart Heavy Arrow:
About 5 times heavier than the Standard Arrow;

4. Heavy Impact Explosion Arrow:
Upon impact creates a small explosion. Also 5 time heavier than the Standard Arrow;

5. Single Stun Arrow
A less powerful version of the flashbang arrow, stuns and slows enemies down permanently, also caps their speed;

6. Distraction Arrow
Creates a loud sound upon impact, NPCs in a certain range will go towards the sound to investigate it;

7. Rocket Arrow
Propels the enemy forward, explodes after 2.5 seconds;

8. Fire Burst Arrow
Explodes on impact with a surcface or a character, creating a big pool of fire that lasts for 7 seconds;

9. Light Arrow
Upon impact, creates a bright light on the spot that lasts for 10 seconds;

10. Grapple Arrow
Upon impact, pulls you towards the place the arrow hit, doesn’t require player input although moving around greatly increases the pulling strength;

11. Teleport Arrow
The arrow leaves a trail of smoke after it which gradually changes in color from purple to red. After the arrow smoke reaches red color it will change to some undefined color which means you’ve got ~1 second till the arrow becomes inactive. To teleport, press ‘T’ while the arrow trail smoke is appearing, when you teleport you knock enemies in ~6 m radius away.

12. Fragmental Arrow
Leaves a smoke trail. After pressing ‘R’ explodes into 4 smaller fragments that go into random directions and leave a fire trail behind. They explode upon impact.
