Fixed

• Rampart blocking three times as many shots as intended due to change in engine's handling of ammo
• Removed Rampart's energy efficiency requirement as it only led to the appearance of a non-operational unit
• Factories not blocking projectiles properly (with thanks to Taiga for the report):
  • Armour Foundry
  • Flyer Foundry
  • Walker Foundry
  • Ship Foundry
  • Advanced Armour Foundry
  • Advanced Flyer Foundry
  • Advanced Walker Foundry
  • Advanced Ship Foundry
