Built a thrust system when mounted. It works as follows:
Press alt and left mouse on when mounted and your character will enter thrust mode. While in thrust mode anything your weapon comes in contact with will trigger the release.
The damage dealt by this attack is heavily dependent on the speed of you and your target. If a target is running away from you when you hit it the damage will be less.
But if you hit a target that is running towards you the damage can scale by a lot.
The weapon used will take a fairly large durability based on the speeds of impact.
Clicking and holding right mouse while in ranged mode will make you hold your breath. During this time your aim's wobble will cool down a lot faster but you will drain 40% the amount of stamina.
