Add a crafting system, but only Cavemen can use it since in real life no one was manufacturing gear and they had to make things themselves. Examples of this include:

• Whittling a quarterstaff or club with a knife creates other wooden weapons, like boomerangs.
• Combining a quarterstaff or spear with an obsidian stone to make a high-damaging obsidian-tipped spear.

Boomerangs should fly in a straight out-and-back line so they are more practically usable than they are now.

Attacking with a boomerang in melee should use the club skill rather than the boomerang skill.

When you are prompted for a direction to throw a boomerang, you can enter into some view-only mode which will show you the boomerang’s path in a given direction, before committing to throw it in any specific direction.

Enchanted boomerangs can continue flying after hitting a monster, with an enchantment/7 chance. (Add 2 to the effective enchantment if the boomerang is blessed; subtract 2 for each successive monster it hits.) If the boomerang is cursed, enchantment doesn’t matter - it will always fall on the first hit.

The reason behind this is twofold: because it makes boomerangs a more attractive weapon, and for the slapstick comedy value.

Enchanted boomerangs (or magic boomerangs, if implemented) can gather items from the floor and return them to you.
