Hotfix Easy 5.5.1

Updated to fix crash on load with the 2023/12/14 base game update.

Hotfix Easy 5.5

Maps
- Removed night-time street lamps
-- Night gameplay isn't very desired, and these may have been impacting performance negatively even during the day as they were a lot of extra actors. Performance increase may be noticeable on maps with cities such as Carentan, Nijmegen, and Oosterbeek.
- Changed lighting to fix indoor shadows
-- This involved removing shadows from a global skylight and also lowering its intensities. Indoor lighting should feel more natural, and ugly shadows present when on High Shadows & Effects should no longer be present. Overall lighting may or may not feel the same, but it should be close to how it was before. Users who play on Low/Medium Shadows and Medium Effects may or may not notice a large change in outdoor lighting.

Changes

Developer Note: Due to having to work with ghost references in SDK, there is a significant chance this will not work properly on its first release. Please bear with us if there are any issues

- Updated Maleme lighting to more closely resemble the static lighting used by Chapter Mercury

Developer Note: The lighting is very difficult to get right considering we cannot actually see the Maleme map in sdk, so we have to guess what values to change then cook out a private sub-mod to test it which is incredibly tedious and time consuming

- Added an experimental train on Veghel
-- Players can interact with a radio at the Veghel train station to request either Reinforcements (1-minute spawn point when the train arrives at the station) or Logistics supplies (2000 dumped at the station - these CAN be loaded into empty logi trucks) for their team. By default, the train provides nothing for either team. The radio must be interacted with to obtain spawns or supplies

- Fixed 7.Flieger-Division using the wrong insignia on the spawn screen
- Fixed German motorcycles' map icons not disappearing when no longer in proximity to you
@CrescentSickle If I missed anything lemme know
