New no-lethal weapon: the mighty tin can from hell

[JohnSmith (DayZ) 1]

Ingredients:

* empty tin can or whiskey bottle.

* dirt (as in not being inside buildings, on paved roads, etc)

Create weapon:

* right-click empty tin can in inventory to fill with dirt.

* gives you a throw-able "weaponized" tin can.

Handling:

* Same as flares/grenades: throw at target.

Effect:

* First hit on zombie: silent death for zombie.

* First hit on player: knocks player down for 5-10s.

* Second hit on player while he is down: kills player.

Alternate "second hit" possibility:

* Run close to downed player and choke him to death (action menu entry).

* Downed player has a random possibility to break free from choking depending on his condition (blood level, hunger, thirst). Maybe something like 50% if at full strength.

Other:

* Thrown tin can be recovered after use like a crossbow bolt.

* Thrown whiskey bottle breaks and is lost.

Pros:

* Not necessarily lethal close range silent weapon with high value early after a respawn.

* Later in game can be used as a means of "warning" or scaring away other player without the need to shoot/hurt/kill.

* Not as easy as it looks to actually hit someone.

* No new animations needed (throwing, laying down, kneeling for choking someone).

Cons:

* May cause additional lag due to unrecovered thrown tin cans. May need a cleanup routine for that.
