it's all about conversion of the screen coordinates to real coordinates. In caves this conversion is ever worse. Try to use custom client with free camera rotation and set specific angle before aiming. I think it is not about marksmanship bug, but about ability to target gob when aiming.

Arguably the mechanic is not the most fun, as you do tend to be unable to hit the side of a barn. Not sure I have a better suggestion off the top of my head, though.

That's an uderstatement. I was hunting a fox - none of the arrows hit it. But that's not the worst. One arrow hit auroch that was way to the side, like 60 degrees or more. And you can guess that auroch beat my ass. So thanks jorb for that experience. Too bad there is no experience gain popup for hitting wrong target.

Hmmm. That would be fun.

With 15x10 I should not miss 10 times in a row, especially against a critter that spawns as commonly as that.

And not a single arrow of those tries went even in the direction of the bat, so I am very heavily inclined towards a bug instead of just failing the dice roll.

Would it be too much to ask for arrows to be stackable, at least 5 per stack? It's already a chore having to find string for every arrow to have 90% of them miss :D

Yeah, about the quivers. You can't shot from your quiver, you have to move the items into your inventory. Can't we just shot using the quiver? Not much of a hassle, just an uneccessary mechanic.
