Well, my followup musings would only have been relevant if Knifing gave the bonus to crit chance, not Throwing.

Here's what I was saying: Throwing skill increases chance to hit. Higher CTH means higher HitBy value. Higher HitBy value means higher chance for an instant kill.

So even if that line in the code about Knife-Throwing didn't refer to the Throwing skill, mercs with Throwing would still have a higher chance for an instant kill than mercs without.

What i'm asking is how exactly the CTH bonus from the skill gets added into the final throwing accuracy calculation. If it's a straight addition, a merc who would have a 50% chance to hit without the skill would have 62% CTH with it. If it's a *1.12 multiplicator, he would have 56% CTH.

This is relevant to determine by how much the HitBy value increases from the CTH bonus.

I hope this is more understandable.

Quote:

KNIFING only affects CTH (and probably damage) in knife melee combat.

AFAIK, Knifing doesn't increase damage at all. I believe I once read somewhere that knifing an unaware enemy also has an instant kill chance, however. Do you know if that's true? I've never been in a situation where i could sneak up to an enemy that close undetected, and had enough AP left to stab him, so I don't know.
