Summary0002580: Archer uses Throw animation if too far away.
DescriptionUnder some circumstances archers use the "throw" animation instead of their "fire bow" animation. They still fire an arrow projectile.

I haven't narrowed down exactly when this happens, but it looks like it happens when the AI is at a distance and can't get any closer (because of a gap or something). If you move closer, then he starts using his fire animation.

Could it be that the throwing behaviour has a longer range than regular missile behaviour?

Hmm, not sure this is distance-related. I walked closer to the archer and he still threw arrows at me.

Last time it was connected to the archer not being able to reach me. Maybe that's still the issue, though I thought that was fixed.

 The spawnarg "outofreach_projectile_enabled" regulates whether AI can throw things. If it is disabled for all archer AIs then they won't throw anything anymore.

P.S. I think this bug is a duplicate of 0002033.

Ah, thanks. That did indeed fix it. I had to adjust the range of the bows to compensate, as it turns out they were much shorter than the distance AI could throw a rock.
