Level Swapping To play Developer Test Map

Hey guys, today I discovered something interesting. It turns out that you can move levels around and rename them and the game will still load them. Here, for example, I replaced HalfingMain.omp in the maps folder within the game files with Playermap.omp and renamed the new Playermap.omp in the Main Domain directory to HalflingMain.omp. This also allows you to play co-op maps solo however when doing this the game tends to crash fairly easily. It's still interesting and should make it easier to do glitch hunting now that we can essentially use it as a level select.

I never put the halflingmain.omp inside the playermap.omp. I deleted the original HalflingMain.omp and put a copy of Playermap.omp in its place. I then renamed the copy of Playermap.omp to HalflingMain.omp. Then when in the game I selected Mellow Hills and the Developer loaded instead.
