Deflector weapons are in! They won't be used by the player, though, they'll just be a weapon for the more difficult enemies to use.

Grenade launcher functionality! I'm still trying to get the feel exactly right, but this is a pretty good position. It gets finicky and small adjustments can make a pretty big difference with something like this.

The NPCs can fire flamethrowers now. It needs work, but it already looks really cool in its unfinished state.

Range-based damage falloff! With a little bit of floating point error mixed in at the moment. While not directly related to NPC pathfinding, the weapons need a range that the NPCs can pathfind to.

Jokes aside, this seems like an amazing tool for designing an in-game economy. Maybe I'll have to revisit it at some point.

NPCs are now able to navigate along a track! (Sped up dramatically)
