Unlocked Trajectory

================================================================================
[b]UNLOCKED TRAJECTORY[/b]
================================================================================
[i]This mod removes the red trajectory line when moving an NPC by force, giving you full freedom with your knockbacks.[/i]

[list]
[][b]Ledges and cliffs:[/b] no more being unable to push an enemy off a cliff because you can't find an angle.[/]
[][b]Chasms:[/b] pushing into chasms will now always work, even if they don't land directly inside it. They will fall into it.[/]
[][b]Solid walls still stop you.[/b] No clipping through walls or rocks![/]
[][b]Awkward ground:[/b] landing on a boulder, a crate or something you usually aren't able to walk on will select the nearest sensible spot to end the fall.[/]
[][b]Functional fall damage.[/b][/]
[/list]Applies to NPCs, companions, enemies and items alike.

================================================================================
[b]REQUIREMENTS[/b]
================================================================================

[list]
[][b]Baldur's Gate 3 Script Extender[/b] (Norbyte) - [b]required[/b]. The mod is pure Script Extender Lua; without it nothing loads.[/]
[][b]BG3 Mod Manager[/b] - recommended, for installing the pak and exporting the load order.[/]
[][b]Native Mod Loader[/b] (tinybike) - only for the optional [i]RabbetForceMove.dll[/i]. [b]Highly recommended[/b]: see "Why the native patch?" above.[/]
[/list]
================================================================================
[b]INSTALLATION[/b]
================================================================================

[list=1]
[]Import the zip with BG3 Mod Manager, or drop [i]RabbetKnockback.pak[/i] into [i]%LOCALAPPDATA%\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods\[/i] yourself.[/]
[]Enable [b]Rabbet Knockback Fix[/b] and export the load order. Its position in the order does not matter.[/]
[/list][size=4][b]Optional file: RabbetForceMove.dll - highly recommended[/b][/size]

[list=1]
[]Install [b]Native Mod Loader[/b].[/]
[]Extract the optional zip into [i]<game>\bin\[/i] so the DLL ends up at [i]<game>\bin\NativeMods\RabbetForceMove.dll[/i].[/]
[/list]To uninstall the patch, delete the DLL. To uninstall the mod, remove the pak; nothing is left behind in your save.

================================================================================
[b]Why the native patch?[/b]
================================================================================

The pak alone already completes every cancelled push, but it does so from script: it notices the engine gave up, then flies the target along its own arc. That works everywhere, and it is the whole mod if you would rather not touch [i]bin[/i].

The optional [b]RabbetForceMove.dll[/b] moves that work into the engine. It patches the game's landing selection in memory at start-up so the engine performs the push itself:

[list]
[][b]The engine's own movement and animation[/b] instead of a scripted flight - this is the "yeeted across the map" look, and it is the reason the file is recommended.[/]
[][b]Correct arc preview.[/b] The trajectory you see before you commit is rebuilt from the real end point, so the arc matches the launch.[/]
[/list][list]
Without the optional DLL the client may still draw vanilla's cancelled (red, often short) preview arc. HOWEVER, the mod itself will still work perfectly fine.[/list][b]Compatibility[/b]
Safe to add or remove mid-playthrough. Server-side, so in multiplayer only the host needs it.
