Now displays the target reticul that other artilleries have showing their AOE when using target ground.

SCU:
DamageRadius for default weapon = 1.2 (from 0).

Bullfrog:
2 AA weapons:
projectile = /projectiles/NParticleBlast1/NParticleBlast1_proj.bp (instead of dark matter)

Naval Units:
All Railgun units have a projectile that "eats torpedo" up to a value of 100 HP

Railgun boat:
Masscost = 1580 (from 1400)
Health = 2600 (from 2400)
Water vision radius = 45 (from 32)
For both weapons

DPS = 400 but if units move away from the burning fx, it's more 250-300 DPS

Cruiser:
AA weapon changed to look more like the Nomads SAM weapon:
Damage = 200 (from 275)
Muzzle salvo size = 4 (from 1)
Muzzle salvo delay = 0.1 (from 0)
Rate of fire = 0.65 (from 2)

Aircraft Carrier
Health = 18000 (from 20000)
MassCost = 4000 (from 3600)
AA Weapon type changed to the same as t2 static AA with these stats for each:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Technical change log:

- Added a civilian truck and 2 variations of 1 civilian structure.
- Under water railgun projectiles collide and eat torpedoes. Also added slight target tracking to better hit.
- Added additional measures to prevent fusion missiles keep circling around a specific point.
- Additional code for tactical (artillery) missiles to handle Aeon TMD. No more weird behaviour of T3 rocket artillery rockets.
- Energy projectiles (Destroyer, T2 artillery) don't collide with torpedoes.
- AA unit weapons don't get stuck in the upright position.
- Increased energy projectile DOT values
- Changed shield Z offset to values by GPG to better be able to position structures under the shield.
- Mothership missile damage increased from 300 to 450.
- Cruiser fires 4 AA missiles per salvo instead of 1.
- Changed AA weapons on carrier to particle blaster (same as static T2 AA).
- Changed AA weapons on Bullfrog experimental to particle blaster.
- Attack reticle shown on T3 mobile artillery.
- Fixed potential bug where an T3 artillery gun does not have a master.
- Fixed potential bug for t1 tank buster where it doesn't have an exhaust animation or a ROF below 1.

<3 for the civvy truck

A problem with the colors has been (re)introduced. The player colors you can pick in the lobby on FAF are the Nomads colors, not the FAF colors. This isn't a problem while playing Nomads games but it can be a problem if you switch between FAF and Nomads games. If you pick a color found near the bottom of the list in a Nomads lobby and then play a regular FAF game you may experience all sorts of problems. You'll get 0 pings in regular FAF lobbies, can't play any game, etc but Nomads games work fine. In that case start a Nomads game, pick one of the first colors in the list, launch game and quit immediately. Then you can play regular FAF games again.
The problem here is that Nomads has more colors than FAF. You can pick for example color 18. It exists in Nomads but not in regular FAF games. This makes the lobby do weird. WIll be fixed in a next version.
