Aim Helper

A mod to help you hit things.

Features:
* Allows you to throw a weapon to any direction while holding direction inputs (similar to Aim Anywhere and Omnithrow, but if you release the inputs it defaults to horizontal);
* Snaps aim to a creature within customizable degrees of the throw direction.
* You can disable most features if you only want one of them.
* Works with Jolly Coop.
And
* Only snaps to scavengers that are hostile to you.
* Pointing emote allows you to throw on pointing direction regardless of config.
* Passive creatures like batflies are lower priority so if a hostile creature is behind them then will target it first.

Known Issues:
- There is currently no filter for creatures of The Watcher DLC, every critter is considered hostile by default and will be targeted.
- Visuals do not initialize / appear in arena mode. (it's a different HUD class, I only hooked the campaign / expedition HUD)

Mod conflicts:
! Omnithrow and Aim Anywhere probably prevents this from working, please disable them as Aim Helper mod also provides the same ability of free aiming / vertical aiming.
!! Split-Screen mod is currently incompatible with the visuals module, it looks broken/duplicate visible lines but the actual snapping should work fine.


I learned Rain World modding and c# just to make this mod, because I wanted to fix Omnithrow being sticky to the last input direction, and be able to do what Aim Anywhere does but with a Gamepad Controller instead of the mouse cursor. This could replace both mods at the same time!

Note: In order to embed the spear up or down you still need to backflip to set the flag on the spear, for now

Linux users (Steam Deck users) need the Launch Options on Steam in order to open workshop remix menu options: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winhttp=n,b" %command%

If you're having crashes or think my mod is not working, and you already disabled other mods, and reset remix menu configs back to default, and after all that still genuinely think my mod is broken, please contact me on a platform I am active on.
