This is very interesting (at least to me it is...)
This means that when a potential 2s line hasen't got
the 2s bit set, it's impossible for anything to
see or shoot through this line.
Maybe I should make a small change in RMB,
as this could affect the reject map:
"When you can't see through it anyway
why should the reject map say otherwise"

Oh-hoh! I'm still using 1.2 because 1.666's sound is way-fucked.

Oh-Hoh! again. I only tried the pistol, shotgun and punch (which
raised smoke). I never thought to idkfa and plasma it.
It is kinda confusing that pistol is not a "projectile".
