- Now Eddie drops XoverWeps instead with 1/8 chance
- XoverWeps without ingredients (i.e Eddie's) are now abstract :

• They can not be (un)combined with
  
• They have a dedicated ammo, shared among all abstract fusions
  
• Their bars will appear as:

- Added an exclusive mod-themed Coopmania map XWCOOPM1
- Updated all custom weapon ingredients keywords, incl. recent packs like Dubious Deeds and VileWeps

Technical

Known bugs
- In PvM (survival/coop/invasion) :

- If sv_coop_loseinventory and sv_coop_loseweapons are false, upon respawning, queued fusions get corrupted (lose track of their ingredients). If in addition xw_restore_ingredients is false, unlocked (owned) fusions get corrupted too.
- If sv_coop_loseinventory = false but sv_coop_loseweapons = true, queued fusions will not be cancelled. And they will be corrupted.
- In short to minimize these bugs until fixed, I recommand (in PvM) enabling restoring ingredients on death, sv_coop_loseweapons, and sv_coop_loseingredients
