Tyhm has a spectacular aura about
shield?

Noticed something.

If you swing your sword, while you're swinging, the shield becomes completely useless. Didn't it used to block the direction it was facing? I mean granted, the GANI probably needs to be changed so it covers all 4 directions, but shouldn't the shield, when you're in sword.gani, block arrows from (dir-1)%4 ?

I liked that feature. It was a huge relief when I was swinging at a baddy and the arrow from another baddy bounced off.
I could just script it, but it'd just be more clutter in the system...

Speaking of which, not a bug report but I scripted spin.gani to deal radial damage on Classic...Stefan, if you want the code, it's really simple, and would probably port well. It's made spin a useful defense against baddies, as it'll throw them clear across the room, rather than a nuisance that opens you up to attacks.
