Limited Continues

Description
MASSIVE shoutout to ChimiChamo for helping me with the logic of this, without him I almost certainly wouldn't have been able to get this damn thing to work.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Instead of being able to beat campaigns at your leisure - slamming your head against the wall infinitely until it inevitably breaks apart - now you have complete the campaign within the constraint of LIMITED CONTINUES!

The basic gist of the mod is so:

- The survivor team starts the campaign with 2 continues.
- When the team wipes (aka the survivors are overwhelmed), the team loses a continue
- If the team wipes with zero continues remaining, the campaign is over and the team is booted back to the lobby to retry from the very beginning

In the spirit of fairness and balance, This mod also makes it so that if a survivor team makes it to the saferoom with all survivors alive, the team gains an additional continue (up to 9). This is regardless of the NUMBER of survivors on the team, so whether you have 8 survivors on your team or you're a party of one, as long as everyone makes it to the end alive, everyone will gain a continue.

This system was inspired by Back 4 Blood's continue system. As much as that game is unoriginal mediocre dogwater, the continue system is about the only thing I found even slightly interesting from a gameplay standpoint. Ofc, just like everything else about the game it was poorly executed because you only ever had like 2 continues with no way to gain more. So this is me basically making a better game than Back 4 Blood.

Can you please make a Mutation mod version as well for this one?

1) this is not a mutation, this is a script that applies over standard campaign / realism games
2) see above
3) yes, you would need the server type set to local for it to work, as is the case with any script mod afaik

@Watlz
1) Is this a Mutation mod?
2) If yes, what's the mutation name in the console?
3) If not, is this a script mod that needs to be on a local server?
