About the pull request
The spotter laser designator, scout laser designator and scout cloak are now unmeltable + indestructible as other irreplaceable specialist gear is.
Explain why it's good for the game
The spotter laser designator stood out to me as the most egregious considering it is mandatory to play the role of spotter effectively - it should not be destroyable or acidable when it is expected for you to carry it and when past attempts have been made to enforce reading the pamphlet and using it. The scout cloak is also OOCly required to be carried and is irreplaceable + a mandatory part of the role. It seems more like an oversight than an intended thing to have them meltable.
The scout laser designators I am not entirely certain on making although it is also irreplaceable and important as a major facet of the scouts role.
Testing Photographs and Procedure
I did test this PR to ensure it worked by attempting to melt and firing a standard OB at the items. They survived.
