I guess it's time for a new bio since I've had the other one for eons. Head dev of Insolence, I have some very limited experience with coding, yadda yadda yadda.

Description
So our coder implemented the molotov cocktail recently and rebels can use them to an extent. However, instead of actually throwing them they tend to slam them on the ground, killing themselves and anything within their vicinity.
Oh yeah. Actually, most of allied NPCs can 'use' them without additional coding on the NPC side; the only problem is that they NEVER hit a target unless they are elevated above the enemy and the latter is far away enough, but that'd be about it.
I suspect that the NPC simply do not calculate the ratio between distance and throwing force. Antlion workers use some new (Ep2-implemented) algorithms for this issue, dynamically calculating the throwing arc for their acid projections.
