Re: MH-FoT-Shasmah
Nice One...
I'll reconvert it if I won't see flaws... because I'm not interested about any Assault-MonsterHunt soup going nowhere:
I think I failed to understand if map can be ended in the way how is placed MonsterEnd - or it's something set different and method escapes me.

Re: MH-FoT-Shasmah
I was wrong, map can be ended, in fact in XC_MonsterHunt the map ends itself as long as Monsters are attacking Forts since attacking stationary Pawns was a MH goal since MH-LostSouls and some dude here was writing FlockPawns which are aggressive, similar to a BiterFish capable to kill monsters easily because monster did not answer at their attack - just stupidly dying. Due to new required "aggressivity" against attitude code of a monster, XC controller is firing an evil reaction to closer visible pawns as they don't have any reason for being visible or damaging them to be taken in account. I replaced forts with my MHFort which I wrote in 2016 and I think I have map in good state. Forts that needs only to be triggered are useless, MonsterWayPoint and a plain stock Trigger does the task without any error.
Triggering is being changed as TimedTrigger starts itself and there is no reason to be triggered with another trigger. And TimedTrigger will have another mission: It will engage a StochasticTrigger concerning PathSwitcher actors.
Last stage is reducing paths because we don't need this charge. Right now I got 1836 ReachSpecs but... there are places where is no reason to overload the spot more than is needed and generating never used paths.

Re: MH-FoT-Shasmah
There is a little problem in the final location... Once that location is unlocked player can easily bypass it by destroying the final flag by any guided missile weapon, this starts a flyby mode and then triggers the MonsterEnd. Another side issue in this case is that players which appeared in that location become killed, because most of the scripted pawns there not yet destroyed and players' ViewTarget is overtaken by the flyby...
It seems, the final flag should normally be non-destructable until all scripted pawns in the final location destroyed.
Also, maybe it would be better to set "Visibility" (which means visibility to AI) property for all 'PlayerPawn' and 'Bot' to 0 when a flyby mode begins...

Re: MH-FoT-Shasmah
Or removing player's collision or sending ALL monsters in state GameEnded... because this is final stage and then, nothing else matter.
Yes, it needs more tuning around.
Here is demonstrated that a creative map is properly ruined by "mods", as original MonsterHunt doesn't include guided missiles which weren't really entertaining in more maps (eg. MH-BoomBoomBridge-BE, MH-AfterDark[final], etc).

Re: MH-FoT-Shasmah
Not sure if this help. IIRC if Pawn set you as Enemy then Visibility not used.
Visibility used for see you. Invisibility just reduce this parameter, same do some jet. And this works, but only until you start shoot and hit monsters.
