Heave Ho! seems to bug the Fatman, that or reaches the games

seems weird that no one in the wikia took note to this, but when taking the perk Heave Ho! (increasing range for anything lobbed or thrown) and when firing the Fatman from 90 degrees to even 45 degree angle for trajectory bombardment ('popcorn' effect), the mini nuke quickly just disappears, no shockwave, or EXP, or explosion, mushroom cloud, damage, etc. Just poof. Either the Nuke went byond the games limits, or a bug is there. Just showing this towards everyone, thats all.

It probably went beyond the game limits if it exits the cell there wouldn't be anyone to hit anyway. I must ask how long do wait? Last week I tried firing the tiny tots spread strait up into the air at Cottonwood Cove then I tried to out run the explosion. When nothing happend I came back. Looked around and thought I'd try again. BOOM!

waited literally several minutes, I was doing a long range bombardment field in Black Mountain, instead all I got was silence, and no dead bodies (trust me, with my accuracy, along with the power of Splash Damage and Demo Expert, none of them could survive) and literally lobbed 5 mini nukes in different parts, same angles. Nothing. however, when I went lower then 45 degrees, it will finally loom over somewhere and land, seeing the large tell-tale mushroom cloud and shockwave.
