###### Changes:
---------------
=== 2.5.6
# Added module 'Protect' which protects respawning players.
# Added module 'Random' which serves as a selective item randomizer.
# Added module 'Burn' which allows players to burn.
# Added module 'Shrapnel' which provides splintering missiles to be
shot by the rocket launcher.
# Added module 'WeldGun' which overrides the nailgun and spits small
blobs of fluid metal.
# Added module 'Drone' which provides shootable, bouncing homing
missiles.
# Removed module 'Telefrag' since its functionality is included
in Quake 1.06.
# Observer: Don't let server crash if teleport target is not found.
# ExitRules: Changed rules so that a single vote now suffices to exit
levels with no exit (dm1-dm6,end) once the exitrules-fraglimit is
reached.
[thanks to Robert Logan (rl@mungbean.dmu.ac.uk)]
# Exclude most monsters to gain compilation speed and space for
site-dependant add-ons.
# Init: by default this module is now disabled.
=== 1.9.6
# Added module 'Lightning': this module (mainly) reduces the effect of
discharging underwater.
# Improved detection of active players when showing extended ranks
or counting votes.
# Vote: Fixed a minor flaw that caused a bogus message to be
shown under certain circumstances.
# Vote/ExitRules: Changed detection method for changes in the votes
and ExitRules.
# Vote: Added command 'votes' which shows current voting statistics.
# Skin: Update messages for Top20Skins-2.0.
=== 1.8.4
# Observer: reverse buttons. Now
- button fire moves the observer to another observation point
or turns the player into an observer when he is dead.
- button jump brings an observer back into the game.
# Observer: fixed bug that no sound was played to announce a new
player when using this module.
=== 1.8.2
# Added module 'Telefrag' which reduces the risk of getting
telefragged by respawning players.
# Added module 'ExitRules' which forbids players to exit a level
too early.
Imposed ExitRules may only be overriden by player voting.
# Added module 'Vote' which allows players to use the command
vote-exit: to vote for exiting the current level immediately.
vote-exitrules: to vote for disabling the level's ExitRules.
# Added module 'LevelSelect' which allows to specify which levels are
offered on the server and in which order they are to be played.
# Observer: allow observers to pass through teleporters and
closed doors.
To ensure that observers flying around can not be noticed by
regular players, observers pass doors and teleporters silently.
That is, doors are not opened and teleporters don't produce fog
or sound when an observer slips through them.
# Observer: provide command 'observer-noclip' to turn clipping
on or off.
# Added module 'Init' which executes a series of 'init' calls on
the client side when a player connects to a server.
This module is used to set the skin of a player automatically.
See the module description for more details and an example
of what a player should add to his autoexec.cfg in order to
let the server auto-detect his favorite skin.
# Skin: removed the 'lookspring' lookup used for skin detection
since it didn't work (except under the unfortunate circumstances
used to test this feature).
# Rank: only players which are alive or respawnable are shown now.
# Added module ServerConsole which does nothing except of printing
some messages to the server console when a player is killed,
suicides, enters the game or is telefragged by another player.
# Observer: added friction for up/down movement. Before, using the
up/down keys when flying around didn't work well.
# Observer: fixed a flaw which entered the code in intermediate
versions.
# Observer: fixed a bug that caused observers to be visible after
a level change when serverflags are set.
# Observer: fixed a bug that disallowed to disble this module.
# Motd: by default no message is center-printed on the player's
screen when he connects to the server. After connecting most
players press the TAB key to see who is on the server; and a
center-printed message staying for a few seconds on the screen
is rather disturbing when doing so.
Information about server settings, however, is still dumped to
the player's console a few seconds after the connection is
established.
# Removed module MapQueue. The functionality of this module is now
part of the new module LevelSelect.
# ServerHelp: the values of the server variables 'sv_aim', 'fraglimit',
'timelimit', 'noexit' and 'teamplay' are shown now.
# Modules: information about running modules is only shown for those
modules which the player should really now about.
=== 1.1.4
# allow to save skin in the variable 'lookspring'.
For instance, put the line
lookspring 10
into your autoexec.cfg and you'll automatically be a predator next
time you connect to a server running at least ServerModules 1.1.2.
# explicitly support the Top20Skins skin collection
ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/quake/newstuff/top20skins.zip
ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/quake/graphics/mdl/top20skins.zip
# make search for spawn point in module Observer safer.
=== 1.1.0
# export most of the routines related to displaying help about
the server to a new module 'Server'.
# add section about resources used by these patches (impulses etc.)
to the documentation _srvmods.txt.
# provide command 'help-server' to recall the help about server
settings and extensions which is displayed during the 'motd-phase'.
# fix buggy initialization of KickSuicider module.
# remove more superfluous 'if deathmatch then' conditions in the
code of the modules.
=== 1.0
# KickSuicider: kick players who suicide twice within two minutes.
# remove some superfluous 'if deathmatch then' conditions in the
code of the modules.
=== 0.99
