Ceisc's Maximum Range Projectiles

by Ceisc

Modifies the behaviour of thrown projectiles (grenade, cluster grenade, defender capsule, poison capsule, slowdown capsule, distractor, and destroyer) so that if you click outside the radius of the maximum range of the item it is thrown as far as possible in the direction of the cursor rather than not being launched at all. Should work for modded projectiles as well as long as they have a capsule_action type of "throw" and are of type "capsule" (not tested).
