Scorched Earth (PL) A3

Alpha 3
NOTE: Last version, I falsely noted that I had widened the stairs and hallway on the right leading to the first CP. However, a reversion caused this change to be removed from the final result, but this never got removed from the changelog. The A2 changelog has been updated to correct this, and the change has been properly included in this version.

-The wood barrier after the second CP now has a wooden hitsound rather than metal
-Optimization improvements

-Expanded the routes between the third and last CPs

-Added a new underground route between third and last
