Apartment Living, Raid Windows, and Glowing Base Upgrades

Major Monument and Quality of Life Changes
Rust introduces the Apartment Complex, offering rentable living spaces and player-run shops to help newer players find a foothold. Additionally, Softcore mode gets a massive revamp with 2x gathering rates and protected 6-9 PM raid windows.
Detailed Tweaks & Features
- Clan Tables: Organize your group with dedicated roles, chat channels, and map pings.
- Weapon Charms: Customize your gear with cosmetic charms via the inventory bench.
- Glowing Wallpaper: A new DLC pack adds 27 neon, glow-in-the-dark interior textures.
- Animation Revamp: New sprinting physics for rifles and improved melee handling.
Everything else is just minor UI polish and fix-all patches. The apartment meta is going to change how fresh spawns survive the first few days.
