The simplest solution was to use a grenade as a template for the projectile. The actual code for a projectile flying through air is fairly simple and not many pages long. The physics also gives a lot of support for many actions like the Touch() and Splash(). To create my own implementation of PhysicsToss() don't appeal very much.
There has to be some setting or physics hook I can use to ignore collisions with outer hull?
