Set-up

Began work on splitting leaderboards between jump pack and no jump pack.

Currently as is, there is a toggle in the F1 menu to enable/disable jump pack
I'll be working on splitting the leaderboards between people with that toggle enabled, and disabled

Complications: They could set the jump pack enabled to true from false when about to complete the map and register a time on the No jump pack leaderboards

How to fix those problems: Check their toggle in the start area and maintain that value till the map is completed, or until they re enter the start area

I'll be writing the script in gLua, a variation of the lua language written and created for garrys mod. It contains specific functions and hooks for making mods or complete redesigns of the game.

I will be doing panel creating for clientside visuals and ease of leaderboard checking and backend serverside work for the data the leaderboards save.
I will probably create more that functions well with the disabled jump pack, like different color chat text on completion or more XP for completing without the jump pack.
