Engineer's new Ingenious Ordnance talent does not apply the friendly fire protection on Trollhammer Torpedo shots

Issue Description:
The new talent Ingenious Ordnance on Outcast Engineer states it prevents friendly fire from Bardin’s explosions. While it currently does that with grenades, it is not doing it on shots/explosions from the Trollhammer Torpedo weapon. Teammates are still taking friendly fire from it.

Steps to Reproduce:
On Outcast Engineer, equip the talent Ingenious Ordnance on level 10, equip Trollhammer Torpedo and fire at a teammate while in a mission. They will still take friendly fire damage, despite the talent stating that it prevents friendly fire on Bardin’s explosives.

I feel like this is intended, Trollhammer is already kinda broken as it is, no need to make it even more powerful

Possible, but some confirmation from the devs would be good.

I queried this and have been told that it should work for Trollhamer Torpedo. We’ll look into it!

Update to this! We’ve looked into it further, and found that the explosion doesn’t deal FF damage. However, the projectile itself does. This is intended!
