Summary0018167: Short range main guns are useless
DescriptionSpecifically, in some cases, they wont be even usable against bosses. Or, I guess technically they could be used, if you're feeling suicidal. Boss patterns are at their thickest the closer you get to the boss. In some cases, there's a minimum distance that you must be away from the boss for the pattern to be dodgable; there's nothing I can do about this. If I were to change this, every single boss in the game would become pretty easy, and higher difficulties wouldnt function whatsoever.

And honestly, there's no reason to limit range in this. It really just doesnt come into play 95% of the time. Most (nearly all) rooms are all tight spaces, so this ends up just not even being detrimental.

The gun in question that's made me think of this at the moment is the Fragmentation Cannon, but I"m sure there are others too.

Flamethrower is another good example.
