Summary0003268: Items thrown while hiding will never hit.
DescriptionMy adventurer (human wrestler) is a fairly capable thrower, and has reliably gotten injuries or even kills by throwing a spear, but when he tries to throw it at a target the same distance away while in hiding it always treats it as if there was nothing in the targeted square and goes right through it until it hits the ground quite a far distance away.
Steps To ReproduceCreate an adventurer with some skill in Ambushing and Throwing, obtain a throwable item, go into the wilderness, hide, get close to an animal which is standing up, and throw the object in the square the animal is occupying.

I would like to revive this topic, and say that it applies to ALL ranged attacks, including crossbows, as well.

The problem seems to be that these attacks always miss non-"hostile" enemies, and enemies that can't see you are not hostile.

It makes sneak-sniping impossible.

Fixed in 0.40.02. Thrown items while sneaking now hit friendly/neutral targets.
