Increased accuracy when targeting self

Just seems silly that you often miss the targeted area on your own body. Trying to hack off my hand with a butcher's knife and instead I go into crit from hitting my body all over. Might be considered a bug, given that it's probably not intentional, but I'm not sure, so I posted here.

Nervousness makes you miss the intended limb.

Would you be able to cut yourself without trembling?

No, but this is spacemen you're talking about. They have no sense of self preservation.

I'd probably tremble, yeah. But I wouldn't be dicing my foot when I'm aiming for my hand.

It's just a pet peeve that I'd like to see fixed.

Also why does the little spessman hack his arm off in the most brutal manner possible.

Mixed on this argument, because 99% of the time self-attacking is by accident.

Accuracy should be reworked, instead being all random the chance should vary based on which way your target is facing you. But I digress.
