[VScript] Witches Spawn Off of the Main Path

It is as the title says. The days of being forced to kill the infected you're meant to avoid are over.

Whenever Yours Truly spawns, the script will automatically relocate her to a new, more suitable spawn location if she's too close to the main path.

The main path is identified through navigation mesh attributes. If a nav area containing the attribute "ESCAPE_ROUTE" (meaning this nav area is part of the fastest possible route from start to the end of the level, thus the main path) is found, that's how the spawned witch is considered too close to it.

The nav mesh's main path may differ from the path you take, depending on the map you're playing. If a witch is spawned in what you consider to be the main path, it means there is another route that the game considers to be the main one.

Here's the fun part: I included multiple options that you can configure based on your needs. Do you think the witch still spawns too close to the main path still? You can change that. Want the witch to be as far as she can be from your eyes? You can do that too, I guess.

Settings are located in left4dead2/ems/witches_spawn_off_path/settings.txt. Here's an overview of each of them:
