Standalone Flashlight [HL2/EP1]

Description
Adds separate power source for flashlight independent from H.E.V. Auxiliary Power, in Half-Life 2 and Episode 1 campaigns. Basically adds Half-Life 2 Episode 2's separate flashlight meter.

Restart the map after first installation to register new Episodic system or add following commands in HL2's steam properties launch options: +hl2_episodic 1 +hl2_expansion ep2

This addon requires Dynamic Fire Glow addon for enabled Episodic behavior which is required for drawing flashlight meter on HUD. Without it player will have infinite flashlight without any meter but still independent from H.E.V. Auxiliary Power.

@Average.. she still does it even though I removed the mod and emptied custom folder completely, reinstalled and she still does it! She just thinks she's in the dark and won't move without a flashlight... I'm replying to an old comment but I'm desperate to get to the bottom of why it's happening

Having this installed will make it so you cannot earn achievements from hl2 or ep1. You can earn episode 2 achievements however.
I don't know if this can be fixed, but I think there should be a disclaimer about it

UI icon does not appear in HL ep 1.

For some reason the seperate Flashlight UI isn't showing on Episode 1. It shows up just fine in base HL2 but not episode 1

so for some reason after entering the commands the game just kinda broke, the flashlight meter wasnt there and it was mixed with the aux power like normal but it would never recharge either, so when it ran out i couldnt sprint or turn on the flashlight and even after disabling it the aux meter was still screwed up

@Half-Life_Enjoyer
I tried this and a number of glitches happened:

The positions of certain textures used to make it seem like you are within a city are glitched so you see only the sky box instead of a sprawling city (before the first ant-lion sighting)

and then when Alyx saved Gorden from the metrocops when he comes to the camera is stuck and I couldn't move Gorden, also the camera is in a glitched position facing a metrocop by the elevator.

I decided to not continue this futher.

@YahBoiFabio oh my lord thank you i was genuinely so confused as to why alyx wasnt moving and was constantly yelling "WHERE ARE YOU?!??!?!"
