Lag reduction script for maps

[Open Assets] Lag reduction script for maps 2

What permissions do you give others to modify and/or maintain your submission?
Modify: YES - Maintain: YES - I give permission for my entire submission to be modified by others or used in their own work. I give permission for my entire submission to be maintained by others as well.
This lua script reduces lag from maps significantly by deactivating all objects on spawn and only activating them while they're within a certain radius of any player. Objects activated by proximity will deactive a few seconds after the player leaves the radius.

Use the perfstats 2 and ps_samplesize 175 console commands to compare map performance.

Technically works in multiplayer but with diminishing returns based on player count. Will probably actually make lag worse with a high amount of players.

If you want to change the activation range modify the dist variable in the script.

Underappreciated and probably ESSENTIAL if you're playing certain 2023 OLDC maps on a toaster. Actually makes Twilight Hill run as it should!
