- Fixed grounded players receiving falling damage from Force-A-Nature shots directly above them
- Fixed the Force-A-Nature firing fewer pellets when tf_use_fixed_weaponspreads was 1
- Updated the achievement icon for the "May I Cut In?" Spy achievement to match the achievement description

How the heck did that happen?

Maybe they programmed it as a feature and decided that it was too exploitable?

Nah, it probably just broke the system by giving a grounded player downward momentum and the game figures fall damage by such momentous (I made a lol C:) numbers.

Prob to do with the dirrectional knockback fix, so when firing straight down the nudge speeds people up to falling speed for a second.

or something.
