The wrench!
If you can dodge a ___, you can dodge a ball. I've added a wrench. As is true to form for this game, its mechanics are wonky.
I also changed the method used to hold a carried yeetable. Instead of forcing its position (considered wrong with godot rigidbodies??) it is now orbiting via vector and applied impulse calculations. It orbits around a defined position near the player, and when thrown, accelerates to another position that is basically "downrange" where the player is looking.
Again, still LAN only. I'm reading up on the dedicated server question, and getting ready to revamp the whole #%!#@ mess to effectively and sanely use server-client rather than peer-to-peer or what we used to call a "listen" host (host and player combined).
Enough spacking on by me, go play the game. FIND BUGS AND REPORT THEM PLEASE! The comments section on the game page is open for that reason.
