A_Explode is sometimes useful for an attack that hurts enemies in a radius but isn't necessarily an "explosion" (such as radiation or a fire) so having a flag so it doesn't thrust would be really useful. Especially if actors are immune to that damage type, but they get pushed anyway. A fire elemental that walks into a flame and then gets constantly pushed away from it is not an ideal circumstance.
Thanks for your consideration!

Just turn on NODAMAGETHRUST flag before using it, and then turn it off if you need thrusting enabled again. Problem solved.
