Add Attacking with Different Weapons

[aberlanga]

Currently the player attacks monsters by trying to move onto their location in the game. Combat would be cooler if you could lance them or swing a sword from 2 or 3 squares away. As a player you could also stay safer this way. This could be implemented by using some sort of toggle feature to equip the weapon so that the directional keys would then tell the player where to aim the weapon attack. This could be toggled off when movement is needed. Mouse clicks could also work. These weapons could be dropped by monsters, chests or bosses.

This is likely to be very involved, requiring new items, new menus, and new controls at the very least.
