-Created separate server build with no textures or sounds

Fixes/Additions in 0.191 (March 26, 2004) [Internal Release]:
-Added new mission briefing info on level loading screens.
-Fixed bug where apc cargo crate wouldn't disappear after being picked up by a dropship.

Fixes/Additions in 0.19 (March 15, 2004) [Internal Release]:
-Lowered center of gravity for KAT and APC vehicles.
-Increased turning radius of APC.
-Added ability for dropship to pick up cargo crates containing vehicles and spawn that vehicle elsewhere. The secondary fire button will pick up the cargo crate when close to it. The "deploy cargo" icon will appear if it has been picked up. Land the dropship anywhere else, and press seconardy fire again to spawn that vehicle behind you.
-Placing a vehicle build crate down from the commander's factory menu within close proximity to the aircraft factory will spawn a cargo crate of that vehicle instead of the actual vehicle. A dropship is then required to pick it up and turn it into the final vehicle using its new cargo transport ability.
-Added ability for already built vehicles to use pitch up (default is the up arrow) to turn itself into a cargo crate. This ability is only available when the vehicle is at full health and a dropship which is not currently carrying a vehicle is within 50 units. Its health will then drop down to zero, destroying itself and leaving a cargo crate in its place. 10 seconds will be given to exit the vehicles, and a vocal warning of "bail out" will be given. The pitch up key must be held for 4-8 seconds. This cannot be done within 50 units of any other cargo crate.
-Made commander's view become clouded when looking at enemy vehicles and buildings that were not close to friendly vehicles and buildings. Friendly vehicles, buildings, and infantry that are nearby will disable enemy buildings and vehicles from clouding the commander tank up to five seconds after they've left the area. Enemy aircraft will not cloud the commander camera.

-Added shadow to scout's rock disguise.
-Fixed engineer's "Kill Placed Object" menu item taking several times to kill walls.
-Made scout's grass disguise map specific.
-Added resource generator to command tank. Even if you have no resource points, you'll still get 1 credit per every 10 seconds. Therefore, you have a chance to somehow come back if you lose all your refineries and don't have enough credits to afford another refinery.
-Increased commander's camera's speed just a little bit more.
-Added radar objects back in on vehicles so that they show up when near an enemy's radar station.

Fixes/Additions in 0.11 (Jan 15, 2004) [Public Release]:

-Increased entry radius for getting into the engineer turret.

-Removed the dropship's ability to have vehicles attached to it. Instead, the dropship has a build crate attached to it at start. The dropship can fly off somewhere, press alternate fire to drop the crate, and then the commander can build a vehicle using the factory menu next to it as if it were a vehicle factory. After one vehicle is created, the crate disappears. The dropship must go back to the aircraft factory to pick up another crate to be able to drop another one. This is hopefully temporary until I have time to go back and add a better method for keeping vehicles attached to the dropship or at least until Battlefield: Vietnam where everyone knows there's better code for picking up vehicles.
