ARC explosion animation

Just a small little suggestion about the visuals of the arc-hit.
In my opinion the visuals of the blast wave just scream out: "Spash damage!". But nearby aliens don't get hurt by it.
I don't know if i'm the only one, but this isn't very logical and can confuse new players. Maybe reversing the animation makes more sense. A large amount of energy is being imploded into the structure under fire.

    Does the bile bomb do AOE damage though?

    Yep, try it with a building and land it next to the building to see it in action :)

    Right that's what I thought, but I guess my point was that an explosion makes more logical sense for an AOE attack.
