     found out differences that appear to be added by the throwing items code.

      The bombs always exploded, but the bomb image remains where it exploded.

      the enemy picks it up. It's funny. You see them pick it up, walk a bit and ... *kaboom.
     
     
  I'll fix this.  This is a basic problem in the way the throw code works - when 
you throw something, another object is created with the same face/animation of 
the object you are throwing, and the actual object you are throwing is put 
inside this other object.

  This works pretty good, but the problem is that in this case, the bomb 
explodes, leaving the thrown_obj without inventory.  And the code was such that 
in that case, it just did nothing, hence leaving a face on the map of the thrown 
object.
