Update:

The Dev team saw these reports and investigated to see if something changed in this update that may have tweaked what Flingers throw. After digging into the data, they confirmed that Flingers are intended to be able to throw basic Husks, Husky Husks, Pitchers, Beehive Husks, Zappers, and Nurses.

Note that the Propane Husky and Riot Shield Husky cannot be thrown - only the basic Husky.

Looking at the file history, the data setting which husk types the Flinger is allowed to throw has only been changed a few times since launch (to add the Zapper and Nurse back when those enemy types were added to the game) and the Husky has been marked throwable since before the launch back in 2017.

Our best guess right now is that there was a longstanding bug preventing the Flinger from throwing all the intended Husk types, which probably got fixed as a side-effect of changes to the game elsewhere.

Description We’re investigating an issue where Flingers are tossing some unintended Husky

Result:

This is by design
