0003231: BFG tracer obituary has regressed
BFG tracer frags now read "x was killed by y" instead of "x couldn't hide from y's bfg"

This happened several 3.0 betas back i'm surprised nobody posted a ticket about it, unless this is intended behaviour? This regression breaks alexmax's duel40 obituary for bfg tracers and eon weapons at least as well, i don't know of anymore

frag someone with the bfg

This happens because DoomPlayer now has the line

  Obituary "$OB_MPDEFAULT"

in the actor definition. This is overriding the hard-coded logic of the BFG splash obituary.

I've noticed this issue very often while testing some duel with bots in 3.1. The duel players are going to notice this bug all the time.

3.1 should now be using the correct obituary for the BFG's tracers.
