Summary 0011596: in the description screen for Sling Bullets, skill training is Throwing.png
Description I was wondering if Sling Bullets could be thrown without a sling.
The description screen certainly makes the reader think it is possible since it states that Throwing is the associated skill, and pressing the s key does set Throwing to 10.

If that is the case, then (Q)uiver should allow Sling Bullets to be selected when no ranged weapon is wielded, just like it is for Stones.

If not, then the description screen should be slightly modified to remove the misleading info.

 I've tried to Throw Sling Bullets by hand a few hundred times but they never do any damage. In between dozens of attempts, I switched to Stones that did some damage.
Therefore, the description screen should resemble the format for Arrows and Bolts.

 Has this ticket, perhaps, already been fixed in trunk?

I was unable to reproduce it. On Trunk, on kelobi, the New York server, sling bullets do not list any skills necessary to use them.

For comparison, on that same server I looked at arrows and crossbow bolts and found that neither of those projectiles list requisite skills either.

My current guess is that this ticket has been fixed in the last couple months and needs to be closed.
