Environment:
* Fog tweaks to rainy 02, stormy02 and super storm 02
* Clouds updates to several conditions, work is still WIP. Changes added to the 02 versions so that they can be compared to the 01s for feedback on optimisations made. I will copy over to the 01 slot and remove 02s if feedback is positive

* Added some underlighting using the rim lighting tech to make clouds less flat when looking into the sun. Used mostly at sunset
* Added some scale variation throughout the clouds so they are less repetative and popcorny
* Reduced the overall number of quad billboards used in each cloud so that they look less repeated and for optimisation purposes
* Changed the mapping so that the quads within each cloud are less repetative
* Tweaks to several other settings such as fog for balancing
Audio:
* New BMW Z4 GT3 incar and external engine sets. Added gear wobbles and all the latest sound events such as int/ext gearshifts, backfires/splutters and a new distant echo and occlusion curves and distant roll-offs
Tracks:
* Azure Coast: Fixed placement of 3D trees
* Derby National/GP: Lengthened kerbswhere needed -dirt areas next to kerbs added -fixedkerb types in last corner of national -csm updated to latest kerbs changes
* Besos National/GP: Added garage interiors, reworked pitwall, temp textures to tyrewalls, CSM fixes around tyrewalls
* Bathurst: Static scene update. Switch of 3D eucalyptus trees to the ones which use one material for all variaitons and it's LODs
* Milan: Addition track foliage added
* Sven tree tweaks added for various tracks
Vehicles:
* Zakspeed Capri GR5, Lotus 78: New flash tire with heating enabled for testing
* Formula Gulf: LODX mesh 95% finished, fixed new collision shapes for detachable parts, quick new collision shapes to fix the missing rear wing

Build 504 (27/6/13, Senior Manager)

* Updated Vehicle * Out functions to use HoldInPit
* Apply HoldInPit logic correctly
* Fixed generation of pit spot position
* Added PitOutTriggered logic for when car drives straight through pit
* Unfreeze AI when reacting to start - fixes bug when start reaction slider is low
* Update AI state inputs when in pit/garage spot
FPS Debug:
* Changed debug FPS print code to use ArrayLength instead of sizeof to limit the string printing to the correct size - this needed changing because of the recent switch to unichar text
