Explorer09's comment
It seems like a "worm controlling" utility instead of a movement utility. But the description isn't so clear that I cannot imagine how it works.
Does it work like this?
- Have the Harpoon selected
- Shoot at a worm
- When hit, use the up key to pull the target worm close to you (controlled worm); or use the down key to force the worm away from you
- Left and right keys won't work with this weapon
- The ease of pushing/pulling the worm depends on the terrain friction
- Release the target worm by pressing spacebar
