Tripflares direction change

I've found a way to make tripflares change their smoke directions. Instead of shooting up, as it is normally, if you look up while prone and place down your trip flare, it will shoot in the direction you were looking while prone.

For example:

These flares to demonstrate the effect

I put these flares on top of a vehicle, then tripped them to create a mini-smoke screen that lasted a few seconds 8-)

In the first image, there's 4 tripflares shooting in different directions
In the second image, there's 3 tripflares in one spot, making a thicker smoke than normal

I should have pointed that out, oops :(
