“ - Fixed: Non-exploding missile hit would do too much damage”
Missiles began to disappear if you shoot at point-blank range. about 20-30 meters. if you shoot further, the explosion occurs. ( for handheld launchers )

If you shoot with equipment like a scalpel on a caiman, the distance is even longer. There is no explosion at 500 meters.

it happens in multiplayer and in single player.
there is no explosion (shrapnel). the hit itself causes damage.
