Touchscreen mode update / Mining Drone Enhancement / Hydroponics Update / Overwatch Fix

Touchscreen mode update

-Items can now be picked up within the 'harvesting' radius of a character by simply holding down on them. (Nearby items should no longer be finicky to obtain. Standard commands like drag and hold are still in effect, this is a bonus input format.) In fact, holding down in the middle of items in range, will auto-collect all permissable items for the duration of the hold input :)

Of course, force-fire will NOT proc for such detected instances. Force-fire will continue working as normal otherwise, nice and snappy.

Reverse Pan Hotfix

Fixed Reverse Pan not initialising (sorry!)

Mining Drone Enhancement

-All mining drones receive a detection range boost, in-line with those on a Combat Droid. (Super-clone levels, basically.)
-Do remember, they will only engage threats if the threats are "Diamonded", and not automatically.

Hydroponics Mission Site update

-The drones on Hydroponics now spawn with Free Pistols
-NPC Drones on Hydroponics now correctly spawn their 'corpses' when killed

Overwatch Fix

-Overwatch should correctly perform at maximum weapon range now for all units. If your units have the detection range that exceeds their max weapon range, they will engage at the farthest possible distance. Be mindful of the weapon when employing overwatch! An overwatched standard shotgun on an unlevelled unit, firing at maximum shotgun range out in an open field will NOT one-hit-kill an incoming Stabber, and become an ineffective pairing, compared to using the same shotgun in overwatch, at a blind corner for example, where the Stabber kill is almost guaranteed as the pellets grouping will all land on target.
