Various behind the scenes Timer checks were spread out over MS's to stop the game thread from being choking out.
UpdateSeenList update: turns off when not needed, instead of always running
Optimized Ambient Civvie Spline visibility by adding threading support
Safety check for World Building LERPs, adjustment of vehicle nav volumes, and conversion of assets into landscapable objects for Angel Island Grids 1-3
Added 'SharedStimulus' logic (akin to SharedVision) - currently only used by Ambient Civilians - to replace the fact that VisibilityTriggers are no longer handled via Perception Result: Ambient Civilians seem to function mostly as before, but perception system has a lot less pressure on it now
Crashfix for potential 'infinite loop' for UnitMovers getting stuck going between devirtualized units spawning+monitoring
Reduced number of sight queries-per-update to 4K (from 8K), to try to reduce CPU strain
Fixed Speakers for vehicles registering as vision stimulus
Set up untargetable Civilian clutter+walls to 'deregister' from Sight once revealed, so they stop taking up queries
Fixed Camo not applying to Merlin.
Fixed Camo not applying to MUTT/MULE.
