A SuperAnimal can also carry and use throwables. As the description suggests, these are devices that are thrown.
Using the fire button throws or deploys a throwable towards where the cursor exists on screen.
What they do varies depending on the kind of throwable concerned.
A couple explode.
A couple make an area unpleasant or hazardous to be within.
A couple impede or promote movement.
A super animal can collect a single set of throwables at one go, Once one has a set in inventory, the super animal will automatically collect any compatible throwables up until the carry limit is reached. It can sometimes be desirable to manually pick up a different throwable, if one prefers it to the throwables currently being stockpiled.
That generally covers how to use equipables. Let us ‘next’ go over the SuperAnimal’s health, armour and recovery.
