Note:Certain effects such as rain from a func_precipitation and the survivors flashlights do not display while cameras are in use. To get around the rain not appearing, use an info_particle_system set to rain_intro above the cameras view, disable it once your intro is finished.
Warning:Do not use the Enable input of this entity if the activator is not a survivor, or it will function as a global camera that effects every survivor.
