Fortresses cannot shoot through hardpoints
but fortresses are HIGHER (screen 1) -
Hardpoints can shoot through towers
hardpoint just a bit higher than towers (screen 2) -
bunkers cannot shoot through tank traps!
Why bug:
if hardpoints can shoot through towers then fortresses should be able to shoot through hardpoints.

My guess is that this is an issue with hitboxes. While fortresses being unable to shoot over hardpoints may be intended, the towers might have a thinner hitbox than hardpoints, and the Tank Traps' hitbox might just be too tall.
The best solution that I can think of, if hitboxes are determined by the .pie files that are assigned to the structures in structures.txt, would be to add a new .txt file in the stats folder that is used by the game to override various structures' hitboxes with custom hitboxes, so that while a structure may look like it would block line-of-sight (at least when determining whether or not to shoot at the enemy), units would still be able to shoot through said structures.

This applies to 3.1.0 as well, or 3.1 & master ?

Need to know if these issues still happen with the release of 3.1.0.
