Bugs

 * Friendly Fire is supposed to have a HUD notification Vault Boy popup, but it is flagged to be hidden.
 * The Hellstorm missile launcher with Napalm payload mod will not proc the effect, despite dealing fire damage.
 * Molotov cocktails are currently the only weapon which may apply the heal effect to NPCs. The thrown item must strike them prior to exploding; the fire hazard or explosion will not proc the effect.
