Make the Bow Sprite Easier to click and Better - Technature - 04-30-2021

I made a bow and erebite tipped arrows and quickly realized why nobody uses bow and arrows.  Clicking the bow is an incredible pain.

Using a bow in comparison to a phaser should suck, but not because you can't notch the damn arrow!

bow drawback speed could also be improved

bully someone into making the sprites... Maybe someone like BRIXX.

Ah for the love of Buddah... Adding it to the list! You're also getting a crossbow too for all your medieval projectile needs! (hopefully)

Actually while I'm at it, and I can't believe I forgot this, are Erebite tipped arrows supposed to explode a fraction of the time?

Erebite is unstable, but not 100%

Possibly not the final iteration, but what I whipped up over the last bit:

   

With transparencies between the string and arch to make it easier to pick up.

Really nice work on the MatSci sprites so far, Brixx.
