Overview

An arrow entity is created when you call hero:start_bow(), after the bow animation. The arrow flies for a few seconds and disappears later.

It can hurt enemies and activate switches that are sensible to arrows.

Note that there are no predefined bow and arrows equipment items. It is your responsability to make them if you want. If you decide to make them, you will typically call hero:start_bow() from the item:on_using() callback of your bow equipment item.
