   Still more visual tweaking to do, but pretty happy with the behaviour of the "throwing arc" vis now

     @sinbad so realistic, I can almost hear the sound of the wee! 😂

     (I'm very sorry; this looks amazing!)

     @reidrac 🙈 I did not see that until now, better not make the particle systems yellow 😶

     @sinbad I think is the effect on the target combined with the like what gives that impression of something "liquid".

     @exa It already does lag a bit, any more and it feels unresponsive for aiming. I am considering shifting the start point a bit so it's not exactly straight-on all the time when stopped

     @sinbad can you make the camera lag a bit (smoothly) so that people can actually see the full arc from side at times? (helps a lot for controls intuition)

     I've offset the origin of the arc off-centre so that it's more obviously an arc now. It doesn't matter because we calculate where to aim at based on the camera centre anyway and reverse calculate a trajectory to throw from that. I'd originally centred it because I found off-centre directional aiming felt bad, but in this case it's fine
