In the current tip of EET, Neera's SoA intro scene involves a race condition - both Neera's spawn and the initiating cutscene happens when OHN_INTRO_SCENE is on 2. In addition, if Neera is dead or otherwise unavailable, the cutscene still happens without her which can lead to a softlock when it reaches to her intervention.

This PR resolves both issues:

  • EET will attempt to spawn Neera at the door of the building when OHN_INTRO_SCENE reaches 1, so anytime after the peasants acknowledge the murders. Neera's spawning is also moved from AR0500.BCS into OHNMCUT1.BCS and expanded with the same counter-popup validation as every other actor of the cutscene.
  • The remainder of the cutscene is only initiated if Neera was successfully spawned.

Pinging @Argent77 for interest - I added the HasDLC checks to the Neera blocks, so Convenient EE NPCs should be unaffected by this change.

Fixes #157.
