Ballista can target the player as well.

Imo this need to change. Player should only get hit by there ballista if they get in the line of fire.

But not be targeted by it. Makes it pointless as a defensive weapon. Traps tho are one thing

My base is directly in front of the Starting Boss Stones and there wasn't any monsters around except the 2 Skeletons I summoned using Dead Raiser and even they weren't near the ballista. It 100% did target me and had me dumbfounded for a bit till I decided to destroy the damn thing.
