Changes LV-624 tfort's landing floodlights to colony floodlights (#5694)
# About the pull request This PR changes the landing floodlights found at LV-624's tfort to the colony floodlight variant. # Explain why it's good for the game This is not going to be popular, but please read the reasoning: LV-624 is the _only_ map that uses the "landing floodlight" variant outside of the actual landing zones (namely, at tfort) - these floodlights are unslashable, unmeltable, and unmoveable without any visual indicator (that is, they are not near LZs indicating their game-critical importance). This PR changes these landing floodlights to colony floodlight variants. - **Why colony floodlights:** Colony floodlights are the exact same floodlights that you can find around this map (even southeast of tfort itself): these ones cannot be melted (ever), and they cannot be slashed until they were turned on, after which they are still not despawned, just a comtech has to fix them. - **Why not regular floodlights:** Regular floodlights can be slashed. Every LV-624 round would start with xenos slashing/melting them immediately and marines would lose their light source on tfort. I feel the pain of every hivelord/drone who ever had to build around these light sources, but they have a strategic reasoning to be there. - **Is this a marine nerf:** Yes and no. Yes, they no longer have infinite, undestroyable-by-xenos floodlights at tfort and they actually have to set up power to have light here. No, because 1) marines usually CAS/OB tfort immediately, removing everything, and 2) colony floodlights have 150 health as opposed to the landing lights's 100, so they are slightly more resistant to marine fuckery. - **Why is this good apart from map unification:** It gives marines one more reason to properly fortify tfort: they have to protect their light sources. (Also, maybe stop OBing/CASing a strategically good place :P) # Testing Photographs and Procedure Tfort lights: <details> <summary>Screenshots & Videos</summary> ![image](https://github.com/cmss13-devs/cmss13/assets/49321394/6856fa49-aecd-4804-b0d4-342eb13b92e6) </details> # Changelog :cl: maptweak: LV-624 tfort's floodlights are now colony floodlights. /:cl:
