18.5.843

Fixed an issue where the Crowd State DOP clamped initial clip times from SOPs that were less the clip's start time, rather than letting them wrap around. This caused the agent's initial pose to change. The old behaviour of clamping to the start time now only applies for clips that have a pre-roll defined via the clip properties (a start frame that is less than the custom loop range).
