Rocks can now be used as cover
About The Pull Request
This PR gives planetary rocks the passthrough flag so items (like grenades) can be thrown past them, and it gives them a 50% chance to allow a projectile to whizz past them. Just like with sandbags, if you're adjacent to a rock, you can hunker down next to it and fire over/to the side of the rock.
Why It's Good For The Game
I thought it would be fun to allow someone to take advantage of natural terrain in firefights -- I've also noticed that some rock sprites are a little small, so having bullets pass through these sprites should give a better feel when working around them.

:cl: balance: rocks now act like sandbags /:cl:
do you think you could make the tiny tiny piles of 3 rocks have a higher chance to passthrough so it's worse cover, or just make it provide zero cover at all and always passthrough? those things always get me and they're easy to overlook
might be good to make this an element at some point
Alright, I'll try to see if I can do that

I might just do that and make it so you can step over them, due to how tiny they are. It'll be a little manual, but it can be done yea
