Sources for a tModLoader (Terraria mod loader) plugin (mod) called Losing Is Fun. This mod adds various tweaks and gameplay features in the name of fairness (i.e. balance against cheese strats).
Running Beyond the Forgotten Ages (v0.4) with Hamstar's Helpers (v1.4.8) and Losing is Fun (v.1.1.0) on Terraria (v1.3.5.2) with tModLoader (v0.10.1.4) seems to break throwing objects. The player animation plays, the item is consumed, the sound is played, but the item is not thrown: it is not animated through the air and does no damage. At least, with shurikens and at least one other item that I now forget.
