Sorry, it can't.

Um, you want a melee weapon to be thrown? how about using a "grenade" sort of thing. those bounce...

I'm not sure how many parameters "meleethrowordnance" has, but you could always try sticking these two in.

Code: Select all

Rebound = "20.0"
Friction = "0.0"

I doubt these will work, and as Jimmy mentioned you could use a grenade as a base and use some lua magic to work with it. Maybe.

There's the ewok spear. It bounces and changes direction when it hits an object. Maybe taking a look at how it works could be helpful for you.

                                        ReturnDuration

                                        DamageLength
                                        DamageWidth

                                        LightColor
                                        LightRadius
                                        OnSound

It adopts those parameters from the master "Ordnance" parent class:

Code: Select all

Ordnance
NextCharge
LifeSpan
DamageTransitionDelay
DamageTransitionPeriod
DamageFinalDamage
Explosion
ExplosionImpact
ExplosionName
ExplosionExpire
Damage
MaxDamage
HealthScale
ArmorScale
PersonScale
AnimalScale
DroidScale
VehicleScale
BuildingScale
ShieldScale
TrailEffect
ExplosionEffect
OrdnanceSound
CollisionSound
CollisionWaterSound
CollisionShieldSound
BonusAmplification
BonusColor - rgba

Additionally, "Grenade" is the only ordnance class that uses the Rebound and Friction parameters, but there have been useful bugs where parameters from one class have "leaked" over into another class, so it's always worth a shot.

Also, for reference:

Code: Select all

            Ordnance Grenade
                                        Rebound
                                        Friction
                                        CollisionFoliageSound
                                        CollisionOtherSound
                                        StartTimerOnContact
                                        AlignVertical
                                        ImpactEffectWater

Okay, so I did go there, but apparently I didn't look hard enough because it had spaces in the name and I didn't try that. I simply searched for what I stated earlier.

Thanks for help, I've tried with lots of codes but not work, I'll use the "granade" class to do it, thanks again!
