Shell FX

Description
What?
A simple mod adding a bullet arc to all Vanilla & DLC mortar shells, giving them more sense of depth as they fly over the landscape. This is similar to that effect already found on Grenades and Incendiary launchers. In the future it is likely that I will apply this to other things like doomsday launchers, barrage turret, and modded shells and rockets.
Along with this, High Explosive, Incendiary, and Smoke shells all received an added visual upon explosion, that being more smoke spreading outwards from the center.

Compatibility
Should be compatible with just about everything, it's purely a visual change that touches parts I don't think others have changed. Let me know if there is any issues though.
If a shell or IED isn't patched, it will just look like it always does in vanilla.

FAQ
New save?
- Nope, can be added and removed as you please.

Add compatibility for X.
- I will consider! I don't often patch for mods that I don't use myself.

I found a bug! Squash it.
- Please post a Hugslib log and explain the steps to recreate said bug. A Hugslib log will help me help you to the best of my ability.

How do you get a Hugslib log?
- Make sure you have Hugslib in your load order, and after encountering said bug, hold Ctrl and press F12 to get a link to it.

I am also getting the "<explosionEffect>ExtinguisherExplosion</explosionEffect> doesn't correspond to any field in type CompProperties" error.

It is this mod that triggers the error, but I do not know what other mod that is the root of the conflict - I have a fair number.

Updated to 1.5, Deadlife shell from the DLC has been given the arc too.

I request that someone getting this error posts a Hugslib log , or at the very least the link to whatever other mod(s) that change or modify mortar shells. I do not get this error on my end, and so I have no way to recreate nor fix it otherwise (or even know if it's fixed, if I spit balled solutions!)

XML error: <explosionEffect>ExtinguisherExplosion</explosionEffect> doesn't correspond to any field in type CompProperties. Context: <li><compClass>QualityOfBuilding.QualityCheckComp</compClass><explosionEffect>ExtinguisherExplosion</explosionEffect></li>

This error pop up for me and I think its from this mod, greatly appreciate if you can fix it!
