This is everything I have figured out about slingshots, and should give people the basic information they need.

it's actually called slingshot, not sling?

Indeed. I checked to make sure when I saw the [[Sling]] article.

...Maybe I should triple-check so as not to end up being a total fool.

How do you make a page redirect to another?

You might want to add that it is possible to miss the target if you're standing on slightly elevated land (minor hill).
And thumbs up for working on the wiki. It sure needs some love.

Ok, my triple-checking confirms that it is in fact a Slingshot. Yay for not being a fool!

I have not had any personal experience with terrain-induced misses, so I didn't write anything on that. I'll add a note about "Shots can miss due to rough terrain" or something like that. Do you have any more details on this?

can you shoot over a rotten tree trunk cause it seems like my stone just hit that and not the deer behind it, but it can be that it was the terrain

Prolly not. If you can't move over it then you can't shoot over it.

Hmm...good to know. Will have to test that.
