Bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue causing explosion damage to break completely on vehicles. This was caused by a previous version, some of the explosion code was rewritten to fix a bug involving a tank’s turret entity transferring damage to the tank entity. There was an oversight which was causing the damage to be prevented entirely; it should now be fixed.
