i have been thinking about how to do backblast and here is what i have thought up.

make a simple object or particle. give it a life time of 0.1sec, a detonation comp and some damage. then make it get emitted from the back of the effect that the lat uses. it would need to be emitted at around 100m/sec. so when you fire the lat or hat it would shoot this projectile out of the gun backwards and if there was a person in the way it would kill them and if you fired it in a close space it would detonate killing or hurting the people inside. just a idea, what do you think?

AFAIK it will also kill the player firing the rocket.

it would only kill the player a) he fires it and the projectile hits something or he some how gets hit by it and that would be hard.
