Windows Installer and Combat Readability

Improved combat readability while preparing the Windows installer path for a cleaner public client handoff.

Changes

• Culled distant projectile visuals so the renderer spends less effort on shots that no longer help the player read the fight.
• Retuned ignition balance and engine rev range so startup and throttle feedback feel more connected to the aircraft's state.
• Adjusted hangar impostor range, brightness, and mesh cutoffs so airfield structures stay readable at distance without drawing more than the scene needs.
• Resumed chat message identifiers cleanly so in-game messages can stay ordered and avoid confusing repeats after reconnects.
• Tuned aircraft gun damage so hits have clearer consequences without making short bursts feel wildly out of scale.
• Prepared Windows installer packaging so the public client can ship with the right assets and fewer release-day handoffs.
