Bugfixes from 2.7
- Fixed multiple sentry cheat
- Fixed bug that would cause servers to hang indefinitely in intermission.
- Fixed the "bug" that QW2.2 basically turned water into sludge.. the
water is now pure and clean again. =)
Server changes from 2.7
- localinfo "iceslide", when set to on, lets you play hockey with frozen
players. Otherwise, they are locked in position.
- The server's "localinfo exec_map_cfgs on" will cause
fortress/qwmcycle/XXX.cfg to be excuted at the start of each stage, where
XXX is the mapname.
- The client's "setinfo exec_map_cfgs on" will cause fortress/XXX.cfg to
be excuted at the start of each stage, where XXX is the mapname.
- Timelimit represents the actual playing time, not counting prematch.
Setting pm to 5, and timelimit to 30 will run the map for 35 minutes
before stopping for intermission.
- All new admin interface, with expanded powers.
THE CONCUSSION
The idea behind this concussion is that it tries to mimic the effects of
the old concussion, but is completely immune to cheating of any type, such
as hacks, scripts, proxies, or bots.
The main effect is that your view stays the same, but your aim moves in a
circle that's centered on your crosshair, making it incredibly hard to
aim. You also walk in a drunken manner.
As time goes on, the effects wear off and your aim spirals down to
pin-point. The closer you are to the grenade when it goes off, the more
severe the concussion, and the longer it takes to wear off. A direct hit
will last about 30 secs, minor hits can last as few as 15. In addition,
concussions are cumulative up to a point: if you are hit with multiple
concussions, you'll be out for a while.
There's also a very small v_idlescale added. This serves as a visual
reminder that you are concussioned, so that you don't forget and go
blasting the floor with a rocket.
THE FREEZE
When hit by the scout's new freeze grenade (replaces flash), players will
be frozen for 6 seconds. The effect is dispelled instantly by pyro fire
from either team. Pryos are frozen for only 4 seconds.
Sentries hit by freeze will halt for 4 seconds. They will recover
immediately if hit by a friendly spanner.
THE GAS
The colorshifting has been removed, due to GLquake, and cheaters. Now,
when you gas an enemy, they take on your skin, color, and id-name. This
allows the spy to spread confusion and more easily escape discovery. They
will maintain your skin, color, etc, until the gas wears off. Gas no
longer lasts as long, and the effects only last a max of 40 seconds now,
instead of 100.
You cannot gas teammates, or enemy spies, although your gas will damage
them.
