Stagger on heavy damage

This customisable script makes the survivors get staggered when they take a lot of damage at once.

Damage types that can trigger a stagger include
- Friendly fire
- Explosions
- Fall damage
- Spitter Goo
- Tank rock throws

Damage types that will NOT trigger a stagger include
- Fire damage (to avoid being permanently stunlocked when standing in fire)
- Attacks from Chargers, Jockeys, Hunters and Smokers (to prevent survivors from being freed from pins)

The script can be customised by editing "stagger.txt" found in the "damage_stagger" folder of your EMS folder. You can edit how much damage is needed to trigger a stagger. In addition, you can change the multiplier for friendly fire damage if you'd like to disable it or make it more punishing.

Tip: if you want friendly fire from shotguns to trigger a stagger, you will need to increase the friendly fire multiplier so that a single pellet will deal enough damage to trigger it.
