VPhysicsCollision() isn't overridden nor called, PostCollision isn't called either. I take it the grenade isn't considered a vphysics object at all? Is this because it's using
SetMoveType( MOVETYPE_FLYGRAVITY, MOVECOLLIDE_FLY_CUSTOM ); rather than VPHYSICS? ( I tried changing it but keep hitting asserts, and only want to allocate so much time per bug... a long list to go ;) ). Anyway, I'll probably stick with a regular bounce sound anyway. I think gameplaywise it's more interesting for players to have a sound they know to be a grenade than more realistic yet less recognisable sounds.
