About The Pull Request
Fixes #59037.
This PR makes heads on pikes actually appear properly offset so that they're impaled on the spike instead of halfway down the shaft. In addition, the heads will actually appear on the correct layer, rather than sometimes being rendered on the UI layer. This means they will not inexplicably be visible to blind players.
Why It's Good For The Game
Judging from the screenshots in the PR that added these six years ago, this has actually never looked correct. For the first time, this makes heads on pikes actually look like they're meant to, rather than having way too much of the spear shoved out the top of the head.
Also, fixes a fairly egregious rendering error that makes blind people see mysterious heads in the void.
Changelog
