Idea: Shoot over walls?
i like this mod because it means i can throw sandbags behind a wall and prevent the enemy from walking up to me point blank and ending it right then and there.

however... i noticed that you cant shoot over the "high security wall which kind of defeats the purpose of these walls in the first place.

if i wanted to have strong walls id build regular walls, the main idea to having those walls seems more like to have a defensive possition than anything, just take a look at the wall of china.

some people might be concerned about balance but correct me if im wrong if your firing behind a sandbag thats infront of the wall you only receive the cover bonus from the sandbag.

the point im really trying to drive home is this : wood walls collapse almost instantly when they are hit during a battle but the high security walls can hold up to more than just a few shots which makes the incredibly useful, however you cant shoot over them which makes it pointless to have. in the end you would receive no cover bonuses from them but they would do their job which would be allowing you to shoot over them and prevent the enemy from scaling your defenses and breaching your perimiter.
