Grappling Worm

A grappling worm is a tubular insect with black and blue stripes commonly found in The Exterior. It shoots a sticky, pink line from both ends of its body to move itself around. These lines are strong enough to keep the Slugcat and even bigger creatures from moving away from them when caught. Despite this, they are not hostile and Slugcat need only pick the worm up to release the line.

Abilities/Behaviors
When equipped, pressing the "jump" key while midair causes the grappling worm to shoot the pink line the way it is pointing. They can be used to tether enemies, pull the Slugcat in a certain direction, or create a swing. Grappling worms do increase the weight of the Slugcat, reducing jump height and causing a passive slipping from poles. Attempting to throw the grappling worm does nothing, it can only be dropped by holding the down arrow key and pressing the "grab" key.

Note: As of update 1.5. The Grappling worms seem to have no effect on Slugcat's weight.
