Explanation

Hawkins Lab Visual Issues
Those issues have been in game since the map was re-added.
(issues are bothe present in the ptb and the live version)
(attached videos are from before the map was removed to explain the issues)

• the exit gate's red lights are not blinking as they were before, now just static.
• the floor level, ceiling lights are also not blinking to show that a gen is completed or not.
• the portal room ceiling lights also have the same issue, not blinking showing that a gen is complete. (the celing lights have to blink exactly like the ones from the main floor, upon repairing the specific gen the lights fliker for 1 sec after that they go off)
• buttons on the consoles are not blinking corectly like in the video. they are bright and bareley noticebale.
• misaligned lights at the drophole and portal room.
• rat cage cloth from the upper level floor has weird physics.
