Its probably possible, but hard, yes.



Wouldn't it be possible for the ranged weapon to try to measure collision from the shooter to the target, and if the pathfinding collides with a Paliside or Brickwall or Tree, it will immediately return Target Blocked?

Would make MM even less useful than it is (in case of trees), no thanks.

In that case, it would be a simple method of excluding trees from one of the forbidden objects to collide with.

This way villages could build greater defenses and allow for extended mobility around the village walls themselves. Of course you would ALSO need to build a form of stairs to get ONTO the walls. Similar to what you could do in the game 1408 AD.
