it's a wierd bug that certain thing projectile images (especially molten bolt or heavy blaster) won't appear as you get closer and closer to 90 or 270 degress (0 degrees is north)

Why isn't this in Bugs and Brainstorms?
[schilcote] It doesn't have to be good, it just has to not be "wow is that the only thing you could think of" bad

I'm surprised that no one pointed out the code lacks "intensity" definition
(see the code for the TeV9 blaster).

If I recall correctly, "heavyblaster" with intensity less than 3 makes it sometimes disappear, like you've seen.
