• Fixed timer bar scale (HUD) during freeze time

QOL:

• Overlays no longer clear when you die, so that you can continue to spectate what overlays the players see
• Add sound effects to other weapon drop effects, as well the Smoke Strat effect
• Entity cleanups are now cleaned from their respective effects (Instead of each effect iterating through all entities then comparing names, each effect now manages their own array of entities that are spawned, this is to avoid any chance of removing the same entity twice in the same frame)
• HUD gets cleared as soon as round ends instead of waiting for timer to update

• Fix lightning materials (again)
• Fixed bug where effects would be applied on player spawns right after the effect expires
• Moved HUD color ConVars into 7 configurable styles (0 = White. 1 = Pink. 2 = Green. 3 = Blue. 4 = Cyan. 5 = Yellow. 6 = Orange), configurable via !chaos menu
