Karelia - suomi mainittu

5cp rotational map I did for the 72hr jam in 47 hours. It's set in a Finnish town during the Winter War.
I haven't really based the layout on any 5cp map, but I have taken inspiration from Shoreleave for the mid bridge.

@Mikroscopic for the arctic skybox.
@A Boojum Snark for the excellent mapping resource pack.
Frontline team for the custom assets.

Some last minute changes to the map before the jam ended. I chose not to go a3 as it would be a mess and would require more time for me to do it.

-Lowered Bar Props so they actually hit the ground
-Disabled collision from Beer Bottles
-Changed Resupply Lockers to the Military Resupply Locker from Frontline!
-Returned the armored car and the crates to the same spot as they were in A2, while still keeping the door behind them shut

LEVEL

-Remade 2nd based on the a3 version.
-Remade last from scratch, connected to the last spawns from a3.
-Flipped last spawns in order to suit the new layout of the control point.
-Reduced clutter and depression by using a wider range of dev textures in the level; White for interiors (and mid point roof), grey for floors, roofs and exterior walls, orange for mid capture area, team-based colors mainly on team sided capture areas, and some walls to help disgintuish which side they are on.
-Fixed brushes that were overlapping others.
-Swapped blue health pickup overlays to white. (patch008 > patch007)

ENTITIES
-Added a water_lod_control entity for the water areas.

Fix for the ground textures soon. For some reason the texture I used appears in the Frontline folder and the tf material folder, so it must have messed something up. I'm gonna clear my tf file from custom content and hopefully everything works fine after that.

I noticed BLU and RED are misaligned by about 16 hu, I feel like the new mid bridge from a3 is the cause. Will have to rebuild the map from one side.

-Changed 2nd balcony to a stairway, now benefits attackers and defenders opposed to defenders only.
-Increased overall size of last by a fair portion.
-Changed the layout of 2nd to last connectors.
-Fixed mid bridge due to alignment issues.

-Changed the layout of the bar area a bit, should cut down sightlines to mid by a bit, while having the room less cluttery than before.

-Added a one-way window to 2nd Forward Spawn.

-Added arrows to mid in front of the 2nd Forward Spawns to guide respawned players.
