Real Answer, first version of this answer is an alternative solution, see comments for clarification

Set the Deployment Type to Class Resource for the module. See here for an example.

Alternative Answer:

You could have javascript files live in the LAYOUTS folder if possible, they'll be the most accessible there.

Add a mapped folder for LAYOUTS, add in a folder for the name of your project if you want (if it doesn't already do so) and then access it via /_layouts/YourProjectName/file.js
