ZergCampaign v Beta 4 file

NEW FEATURES
- You can now spawn as the Zerg in custom games.
Simply set your race to Night Elf, and your handicap to 90%.
This will make Zerg units will spawn in place of Night Elf units on any map where standard starting units are created, such as melee maps.
Note that the map's Game Data Set must be set to Melee (Latest Patch). Melee maps should have this on by default.
Note that Computer players will currently not play as Zerg.

- Custom Hotkeys are now supported. See the included SC-CustomKeysSample.txt. Add its contents to your own CustomKeys.txt and then configure the hotkeys to your liking.

- The World Editor now has built-in support for Zerg units, allowing them to be easily added to your own maps. No need to import anything, they just work!
Note that the map's Game Data Set must be set to Melee (Latest Patch) under Scenario -> Map Options.

- Reduced Zerg Campaign map load times.

BUG FIXES
- Fixed Zerg ready acknowledgments not playing the first time for each unit type.
