Flamer explosions ignore toughness and do health damage directly

Issue Type (Required):

Enemy Mechanics

Issue Description (Required):

Flamer explosions use the same code as barrel explosions, both red and yellow types. Those barrels ignore toughness.
When scab flamers explode, the blast ignores toughness like a yellow barrel and the flames they leave behind bypass toughness like a red barrel.
When tox flamers explode, the blast ignores toughness like a yellow barrel but the flames they leave behind DO NOT ignore toughness. That’s because you changed the damage type to the green fire damage which already is programmed to damage toughness before health.

Please change the scab flamer fire (from after the explosion) to the correct type of damage so it does toughness damage. Right now it looks the same. These are the only enemy damage types that skip toughness. Please make it consistent.

Thank you,
