Throwables can be blocked, carried and climbed by the infected #423

Description

It is not too uncommon for a thrown molotov or pipe bomb to be blocked midair by a horde. When this happens, the projectile usually floats for a good second or two before actually falling to the ground. This inconsistency can cause molotovs to land in a completely undesirable place for example. In even rarer cases the infected and even special infected may "carry"/drag a pipe bomb to a different place, usually towards the player as these "carriers" seem to ignore the ticking. Finally, it's also possible for the projectile to be climbed on by the infected. This can be quite dangerous in Tank Run, for example, because a Tank would not be stumbled by this crucial pipe bomb.

Reproduction steps

Throw the grenade at around pelvis height of a Tank or horde.

Partial extension of #49, but affecting the infected.

NPC Tanks can "climb" grenade launcher projectiles as well at times
