Snow Den 2.0, Holiday release (definitive version)

Description
I decided to re-release this campaign entirely since there's some changes to it, notably the descent into the mines which is now no longer a deathtrap for bots. I also thought it was just more fitting to release it during Holiday Season.
Original description below.
------------------------------------------
From the maker of Haunted Forest, a new campaign set in a snowy landscape. The L4D2 survivors somehow managed to end up somewhere in a Northern European area.
The only way to get out alive, is to reach the harbor but there are some obstacles in the way...
- Features weather that can be a bit different from playthrough to playthrough
- Features alternative pathing
- There is totally not a secret room anywhere. No sir.
- SNOW! WHEEE!

Latest version as of 19th May 2024
-----------------------------------------------
- Overall: more respawn closets on all maps
- Map 1: The death pit in the sewer's side room is now closed off in CoOp or Singleplayer, but remains open in Versus to give SI players a chance for deadly attacks.
- Map 1: after the Tavern, the area where you can get pulled off the bus back on the streets now has a ladder so you can get back up instead of having to go all around again
- Map 2: There is now an infected ladder from the large dark area in the sewer back to the pipe you come from
- Map 3: The descent into the mines is now a set of stairs, to make the bots no longer die falling like idiots
- Map 4: Finale area was changed so Infected have more hiding spots to work with


Notes & Disclaimer
--------------------------

- I'm aware that for some people, map 1 crashes to desktop as soon as you leave the hangar and start shooting stuff. It happens to me too once in a while but most of the time it works fine. I suppose it's because of a conflict with some other addon. I'll look into it, but trying to find what exactly causes this campaign to conflict with certain addons is like finding a needle in a hay stack so no promise that I'll find anything.

- This campaign was tested several times with multiple people and several skins or sound mods active and it worked fine. However, I can't guarantee that this campaign is entirely compatible with every mod out there. If the campaign conflicts or doesn't work because of other mods, not much I can do about that.

- Some areas are bot-unfriendly. It's strongly recommended to play with more than one human player

- You're welcome to give me ideas for improvements.

- You're welcome to tell me about bugs or problems you have with this campaign. However, please verify if you still have the problem after you deactivated your other mods.

- Do not upload this campaign to any other website without my explicit permission. I'll add it to Gamemaps at some point, when it's been through a couple of patches and updates here on the workshop.

- Do not upload copies or modified versions of this campaign on the Workshop without my explicit permission

Can't even begin to describe how good this campaign is. The author is really good at keeping players at edge, yet the encounters are all fair and balanced. The natural environment is pleasant as well with details like cuckoo singing. Definitely a solid 10/10.

christmas came early!! :steamhappy:
7/10
Played in Realism Expert, Singleplayer without restarts. The Chapter 3 was brutal, the tanks were spawned 3 times, being the first one had after i left a saferoom and twice in that cave (coach the BOT Solo'd those 2 tanks) then the panic event the zombies were spawning everywhere the bots didnt die or incapitated because the zombies were focusing on me, good thing i had adrenaline and axe (which i can swing 360 degrees due to its horizontal). (Bad English)

We couldn't play map #1 at all due to client randomly crashing all the time (server no issue), and it seems like it limits the slot to 8 players (max 16 slot, just like your Haunted Forest map, locked to 8 something but no crash issue), so we continued map #2, until map #4 in cave where there's like 2 tanks, most of players got very rare crashed "overflowed reliable buffer" (never encountered this before playing hundreds of custom maps). So we decided to stop. Hopefully, you might want to put back the old version of this map, where there's no issue at all...
