C4 not blowing up through grates while timebombs still can

[snake eyes]

Bug

Priority:

Low

Description:

C4 and Timebombs React differently when trying to blow up props through a grating like shown in the video. The C4 blows up nothing while the timebomb works fine.

How to reproduce:

1. Go to this grate near suburbs
2. Test both explosives on some plates

thanks cock asian for dying for our sins

This is intentional, C4 does obey LOS whereas timebombs do not. LOS is essentially that it follows "Whether or not it is in the radius of through a map area it will not damage the prop. Only if it is in sight of the prop." Sugar said it's fine and he won't change it, I think. I do think they shouldn't blow up through grates for timebombs but it's hard to do unless the wall is as thin as paper anyway.

Mat bombs / nades go through it though, and to my knowledge, they obey LOS

Yeah, C4 was the main issue so it's all that was suggested to change.
