Added Commends.
General gameplay changes.
AP no longer granted for Walkers, AP/Souls no longer granted for Shrines and Patron (redestributed along soul reward line)
Urn comeback properties now at 8% net work lead, drop-off location now variable based on team ahead being closer to losing team side.
Guardian resist vs troopers scales from 60% to -35% at 8 minutes.
Guardians resist vs players scales from 40% to -35% at 8 minutes.

Map changes.
Redesigned stairs from central canal to the outer lanes (near Urn spawn).
Connection hallways behind the Chapel and Firehouse now has an option to continue inside to the Walker arena, with added a Bounce Pad and Neutral camps moved from the ground floor to the upper floor.
Redesigned traversal from ground floor to upper floor of the Garage and Night Club to get to the Sinner's Sacrifice neutrals.
Adjusted the matchmaking schedule to not be split across many different hours throughout the day, primarily to help address queue times. There will now be a wider continuous, but more concentrated, set of hours that it is enabled in. The schedule is now more simplified as well, as there is no more user selection component.
Ranked now has weekend specific hours (starts 5 hours earlier)
Fixed some regions (South America, Oceania, Asia) that were off by 1-2 hours from their intended times
Pause no longer restricted before 3 minutes (we plan to bring this back in the future, but we want to allow this for now while we are early and have technical issues sometimes)
