[WIP] Split up lobby -> menu, lobby, custom_game lobby.gd had gotten big, bloated, ugly, and hard to read. It needed a refactor. The first thing I did is split up the *GUI* into the logical steps it should be. So the new flow is: - Start the game - Click "Quick Play" - Matchmaking begins on my dedicated server - Start the game - Click "Custom Game" - *Only now* am I presented with server / client options - Start the game - Click "Singleplayer" - Singleplayer NOW, and only now, and NO MATTER WHAT PATH I TAKE, I am taken to the *lobby*, which now is where I: - Choose my name - Choose hero - See list of players - Get my team assigned - Anything else that I might like to put in The point here is that this has *nothing* to do with handshaking / matchmaking / etc! This is just part of the game! At this point I have *already been connected* to the server. I've already been aquainted with my other players. The game has begun. I put the things that don't belong in any of these flows in networking.gd, a sort of model-view sorta thing. All of these flows use some sort of networking thing like `init_server` that tbh should be *completely* abstracted from the UI. It's totally a WIP!!! Above is the IDEA, but below is what I've actually *done*: - Made the scenes, made a passable UI for each one that at least indicates ~what they'll do - Made the corresponding scripts, and split up the lobby script into ABOUT where I think it'll end up, but no promises It still errors all over the place, and it's nowhere near properly organized. PLUS, I'd also like to rewrite a lot of the code / rename things as part of the initial refactor goal of making me able to actually think about networking.

Fix all /errors/ on networking and custom_game But not all bugs. Only errors. We're taking this a step at a time.
