Mapbase v6.0

- Fixed path_track paths saving as pointers instead of handles
- Fixed player animations not falling to base class correctly
- Fixed logic_externaldata creating garbage in trailing spaces
- Added "SetHandModelSkin" input
- Added unique colors for various types of console message, adjustable via convars
- Added the ability to use map-specific weapon scripts
- Added a way to display (placeholder) text entirely from Faceposer scenes

- Added LightToggle input to point_spotlight
- Added Enable/DisableSprites on npc_manhack
- Added ai_goal_police behavior from metrocops to Combine soldiers and citizens
- Added func_precipitation particle rain systems from the Alien Swarm SDK
- Added new func_precipitation spawnflags for controlling behavior in particle types
- Added "mapbase_version" cvar which shows the version of Mapbase a mod might be running on
- Fixed an oversight with NPC crouch activities which was causing npc_metropolice to stop firing in standoffs
- Added toggleable patches to npc_combine AI which make soldiers less likely to stand around without shooting or rush to melee when not needed
- Added key for custom logo font on env_credits scripts
- Added SetSpeed and SetPushDir inputs for trigger_push
- Added a bunch of I/O/KV to func_fish_pool to allow for more control over the fish

- Added enhanced save/restore for the Response System, toggleable via convar
- Added a convar which allows users to disable weapon autoswitching when picking up ammo
- Split VScript base script into its own file
- Added VScript descriptions for NPC squads and the manager class which handles them
- Moved several classes, functions, etc. to the VScript library itself for future usage in other projects, like VBSP
- Added VScript to VBSP with basic map file interfacing
- Made some VScript documentation more clear due to deprecation of online documentation
- Added VScript "hook" registration, creating a standardized system which shows up in script_help documentation
- Added VScript-driven custom weapons
- Added clientside VScript scopes
- Added a bunch of weapon-related VScript functions
- Split a bunch of cluttered VScript stuff into different files
- Added VScript functions for "following" entities/bonemerging
- Added VScript functions for grenades
- Added a few more VScript trigger functions
- Added OnDeath hook for VScript
- Fixed documentation for aliased functions in VScript
- Fixed $bumpmask not working on SDK_LightmappedGeneric
- Made vertex blend swapping in Hammer use a constant instead of a combo (makes it easier to compile the shader, especially for $bumpmask's sake)
- Fixed brush phong, etc. causing SDK_WorldVertexTransition to stop working
- Added limited support for $envmapmask in the bumpmapping shader
- Fixed more issues with parallax corrected cubemaps and instances
- Made instance variable recursion consistent with VMFII

 The Alien Swarm SDK was used to backport features and code from newer branches of Source into a Source 2013/Half-Life 2 environment.
 Mapbase also implements some of Tony Sergi's code changes from the Source 2007 SDK codebase. Both SDKs are publicly distributed by Valve and are available on Steam.
 
+Some of the features backported from the Alien Swarm SDK (e.g. game instructor, particle rain) require assets from later versions of Source in order to work properly.
+The required assets have been backported from Alien Swarm and Left 4 Dead for the release build. They are not available in the code repository.
