[Snippet] Vietnam slide

[EK.IceFlake]

Since VCMP developers removed a very useful feature called the 'Vietnam Slide', I decided to reimplement it.

Add this to scripts/slide.nut and add this line to sqmod.ini:
Execute=scripts/slide.nut

You can edit the constants at the top to fine-tune the slide.

It's initiated the same way it was before the latest bug which broke the native slide but it has an extra plus point that the slider can see themselves sliding.

Unfortunately this script is very bugged. It is extremely shaky and does not check for collisions.
I have a new one that does the slide client-side and is much better.

Here is the code. Expect to do some heavy modifications to make it fit your script because this one is integrated quite tightly to other scripts I have.

Sliding    <- false;
Angle    <- 0.0;

Add the constants it requires and make a routine that sends all connected players their sliding status and angle.
:edit: And add my routine script.

Nice script. I hope player.Angle will be without lag in nearest future
