Reduce damage over distance

Is there some kind of way to reduce the damage from a hitscan based on distance? (Example: Some kind of thing that at point blank deals 16 damage, then gradually reduces to 4 damage based on the distance the hitscan traveled)

Not really. You'd have to "stack" multiple A_FireBullets and give them all slightly more range than the last.

Keep in mind, this only works with a perfectly accurate weapon - the second you introduce any form of inaccuracy, you end up with a shotgun pattern up close.
