Gameplay hints:
-Allies should probably build the ramp so they can attack the main gate or flag from two directions
-A covert might be usefull for allies. (Blow up the the fence, provide smoke cover inside main gate, 
sneak in and look at the documents)
-Axis must decide if they want to defend only the real decoder or set up a 'fake defence' by the other decoders


Changelog ->Beta 3b:
-Crates in the corridor to make the MG less usefull there
-Added a truck model inside the main gate
-Brighten whole map slightly (_minlight)
-More light entities in the courtyard
-More light entities around both outside spawns
-Removed one MG
-Further limited the range of the mounted MG
-Made the main gate a little wider
-Fixed some buggy textures on the brushwork
-Improved illogical shadows around allied 1. spawn...
-Fixed clipping around models
-Removed wall above entrace to long coridor
-Moved crates behind truck slightly
-Added some crates in the hall to lab 3
-Removed a tree and added a bush by the fence
