[ MISC ]

• Updated collision around Mirage top of ladder hole.
  
• Updated R8 Revolver geometry and animation scale.
  
• sv_subtick_movement_view_angles will now only send subtick view angles to the server with other subtick events instead of sending them for every frame they change.
  
• Enabled Vulkan defragmentation to help alleviate texture streaming overhead.

[ MAP SCRIPTING ]

• Updated tsconfig.json in the script_zoo, setting the target to "es2022" for more accurate type analysis.
  
• Changed point_script entity to no longer remove itself on a failed script load during spawn. Instead it will remain in an inactive state and listen for script changes if the game is running in tools mode.
  
• Fixed point_script entity to no longer potentially crash after an unsuccessful reload from an invalid script while running the game in tools mode.
  
• Changed point_script entity to hold onto the memory value returned by an Instance.OnBeforeReload callback until the next successful reload instead of forgetting it if the reload is unsuccessful.
  
• Changed methods expecting arguments of string type to now error instead of calling toString for arguments of the wrong type.
  
• Changed Instance.Msg and Instance.DebugScreenText to accept any type for the text value.
  
• Fixed a bug where RunScriptInput would crash the game when triggered with a null caller or activator.
