I think the only way to do this is use it for direct hits. You cannot direct-hit yourself so make it have a low splash damage (material2) and a higher direct-hit damage (material). There is a way to reduce damage over distance but I don't think that can be reversed. I really am not sure how to get your desired damage style except what I explained.

Here is the piece of code I was talking about:

ObjectTemplate.minDamage 0.5
ObjectTemplate.distToStartLoseDamage 100
ObjectTemplate.distToMinDamage 200

This is added at the end of projectile's code to set the damage drop for that projectile. I wish there was a way to flip it so damage is added, ah well...

There is also this other peculiar piece:
ObjectTemplate.ProximityFusePrimer 0.1

I thought, maybe, that prevents the projectile from exploding within a certain distance, but I don't think it causes the explosion "push" which you want. Worth playing with. You can find this line in the vanilla AA projectile.
