[Server Addon] Potential stutter fix on custom maps

Description
Some custom maps use infected or survivor models with set animation as prop_dynamic. This causes bunch of moving phys_bone_followers to spawn which can cause serious stuttering issues. This addon may fix the stuttering in such case.

Custom maps I know of where this addon fixes the stuttering:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1910147798 - 4th chapter
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=342322228 - 4th chapter

Proper fix for this would be for creators of the maps to update the map and change the problematic prop_dynamics into prop_dynamic_override and keep Collisions set to `Not solid`

Possible unwanted side effects of this addon: Killing bone followers disables collision so if for whatever reason that is an issue in some custom map let me know in discussion section

so let me try to understand this. will this make custom maps playable like lockdown chapter two or cold front? because i cant play them because of this stutter? is this why some maps lag to a point when everything stutters and the sound cuts out to?

does this work for maps that spam a thousand common infected per wave? (Map that does this: Hukuma Midushi )

You only need to subscribe. The information about how much it killed will be printed in the console

How do you understand how much bone_phys it kills on which map? For this addon to work I just need to subscribe to it, right?

from ~65ms local with ~110ms friend
down to 5ms local with 20ms friend

Just an idea for a addon could you make advanced harder? like instead of 5 dmg from commons make them do 10 dmg? Not a lot of people play expert but advanced is too easy. Would be great for a middle ground without it being a mutation.

Chapter 1 killed 112 bone followers but im sure this will help all of the hehe maps run better you can check the other ones out if you want for the higher numbers.
