I port stuff m'kay

After thinking about it for a while and reading the suggestions made by various users, I've decided to change how I port the ship models into Gmod.

Until now all of the ships were basically ragdolls made out of a single model, which made the porting process easier. However, there are a lot of drawbacks caused by this model, starting by the complexity and detail of the models:

As you can see in the image above, tons of little models are missing. That's because the ships in WoWS are made up of undreds of little pieces put together by the game engine instead of being a whole model. And placing all those models and details together makes the ships way too complex to compile.

There's also another problem regarding textures: since the ships have all these tiny models on them each one has its own texture, which pushes the texture count way over Source's hardcoded limit (64 textures max, while a ship like the Myoko has 82).

So, my intention is to solve this problem by dividing the models in 4 segments: bow, midfront, midback and stern. This way each part will be less complex and have fewer textures, so I will be able to compile them. BUT, after you place all 4 parts together the overall ship model will be fully detailed with no missing parts or details. Now I'll list the pros and cons of this method:

The pros:
+Way more detailed ship models.
+Working collision models so you can walk on and through the ships!
+Faster compilation times.
+Easier to identify problems and bugs with each part.

The cons:
-You will have to manually put all 4 segments together.
-Additional Gmod tools required to do so.

I will make a tutorial for using the bone merging tool required to "build" the ship models, so don't worry to much about that.
