Camera Offset change = can't attack or interact

Got tired of having to bury my camera in the ground in order to target things using the default setting, but every time I tried to change things, skills pretty much stopped working. Finally found workarounds. Both issues happen when changing the camera offset from zero to a higher value. I did not test other camera changes.

Trigger: CAMERA:Vertical Offset increased from default (zero).

Issue: Client stops interacting with NPCs. Pressing interact will move you closer and then nothing.
Fix: /reloadui after changing offset and client will again interact with NPCs.

Issue: Attacks (including Light & Heavy attacks) will never fire without a target and v.rarely with one (regardless of range, not even toe-to-toe).
Fix: Set GAMEPLAY:Ground Targeting Range Lock = OFF

The last one is rather frustrating. I think Range-Lock=ON is the default. I certainly don't recall changing it and I can't think of any reason to turn it on; an attack that doesn't hit won't even drop you out of stealth and the client automatically "reigns-in" ground AE cast at the horizon anyway.

If you ever have strange issues with attacks not hitting things or not firing, that setting would now be my top guess as to culprit. It looks like it might actually be testing offset-to-target distance rather than character-to-target distance.
