    • /mute [name] [minutes] - mute the player for the given time (default is 15 mins, use -1 for permanent)
    • /muteid [id] [minutes] - mute the player by id
    • /unmute [name] - unmute the player
    • /unmuteid [id] - unmute the player by id
  • The following commands are clientside only (so don’t use /rcon):

Changes from build 489 to 507:

  • Fixed username bans not working [0000708]
  • Autobalance is back, now with three new vars to control it:
    • do_ingame_autobalance - should the teams be balanced other than on join?
    • autobalance_tolerance - the tolerance of the autobalance
    • red_team_size_ratio - how much larger red team is meant to be
  • support_factor variable added, scales how far all blocks can go horizontally (default is 24) - I’ll be adding more variables to control this per-block but it lets you allow some skybridging if that’s your thing.

Build 489 (19/August/2012)

Changes from build 488 to 489:

  • Fixed Solo not working
  • (hopefully) fixed [0000700] zombies not working
  • Fixed Flag “passing” to people
  • Updated RTDM maps

Build 488 (18/August/2012)

Changes from build 469 to 488:

  • Added gamemode variables to gamemode.cfg
    • can_shieldbash - exactly what it says on the tin (defaults to off)
    • can_glide_when_bombjumping - similarly, allows much further bombjumps (defaults to off)
    • bomb_jump_scale - scales the force of a bombjump. (defaults to 1.0)
  • Fixed the dreaded “rcon crash”

Build 469 (30/July/2012)

Changes from build 458 to 469:

  • Mostly fixed so that you can add extra classes without them defaulting to builder. Requires that you add an extra field to class config files called ‘tool’ that has the value ‘Knight’, ‘Archer’ or ‘Builder’. Name can be whatever you like now. Please try this out and report bugs with it (and any workarounds you find) because it hasn’t been tested very extensively.
  • Made guard color overrided by admin_color in all cases (previously wasn’t on player mouseover)
  • Strip out multiple consecutive white space characters in chat, replace with one space
  • /login and /logout restricted to serverside only
  • Removed editor zoom help text as it is no longer available
  • Class restrictions (feature = no_class_[classname] where [classname] is the name of the class)
  • Team restrictions (feature = no_team_[teamname] where [teamname] is the name of the team)
  • Admin menu re-org (Admin>Team>Player>Moderator Action) + hide actions based on seclev immunity
  • Spectator team in admin menu
  • Spectator chat grey
  • Added autoconfig option to allow the seclev feature join_full to work, sv_enable_joinfull
  • Reserved slots, set with sv_reservedslots (feature to use in seclevs: join_reserved)
  • Spectator slots, set with sv_spectatorslots (if set to 0, spectators just use regular slots - if you want to remove spectators altogether, remove them from seclevs)
  • Join as spectator button added to browser
  • Allow /login to work with no password set
  • Freeze immunity (feature = freeze_immunity)
  • Speedhack kick immunity (feature = speedkick_immunity) (this is a temporary fix to work around modded servers that have speeded-up their classes in such a way that the speedhack detection gets false positives)
  • Seclev muting (feature = muted)
  • Deny access with deny_join (will also kick if done mid-game)
  • Fixed ‘x has been voted to be kicked’ bug
  • In-game seclev assignment through /rcon /assignseclev or admin menu
  • Added LoadSeclevs(filename);
  • Added /rcon /reloadseclevs [filename]
  • Disabled same account connecting to a server multiple times
  • New gamemode var: max_zoom_out. This can be 1/2/3 and defines how many levels of zoom there are.
  • 3 more gamemode vars: zoom_level_1, zoom_level_2, zoom_level_3. These set the cam distance at each of these zoom levels. These gamemode vars can also be added to class config files to override them for that class only.
  • Non-fixed cam works at zoom level 1 now. Was forced to fixed previously.

Build 458 (19/July/2012)
