Steps to reproduce the issue:
Hold any spear in the main hand (off hand does not work). Game mode does not make a difference.
Open your inventory.
Drag and drop any item (except for the spear in your main hand) out of the GUI (or hover over the item and press “Q”).
Expected result:
The standard “tossing item” animation to play.
Actual result:
The Spear “ jabbing” animation plays.
Other notes:
This works in f5 and the player inventory screen (with the paper doll). I did not test it w/ another player’s perspective.
If this wasn’t an issue, the sword would play its standard attack/swing animation instead of the default “tossing item” animation.
