C A V E A T S
==============================================================================
I'd like to include more than a few caveats with this release, but I'll
keep it short instead. This mod is known to have bugs. However, I encourage
you to email me bug reports. If you're going to fix things, please don't
mail me the whole fixed source tree -- a diff will suffice. Additionally,
the source is known to be somewhat ugly in places. Sometimes, this was
unavoidable. QuakeC simply sucks. In other places, it was my own fault.
This mod may crash your server process. It's done it to mine on more than
one occasion, but all those bugs should be ironed out at this point. If
it does happen again, do let me know. Also, the server still prints some
debugging output. Deal :-)
This documentation is incomplete.
With that in mind, welcome to the CTF mod which should be named something
better than SuckMods.

==============================================================================
This is an incomplete list of the features included with this alpha
release of the SuckMods.
* New Runes. This alpha release contains 8 sets of 4 runes each. The final
release will have 20 more runes.
* Status Bar. This status bar is not a rip off of threewave's - it predated
Zoid's status bar by about 6 weeks.
* Rune Dropping. The server administrator can set an option to allow players
to drop runes.
* Player Stats. An impulse is available to get some statistics on other
players in game.
* Nick Registration. Names can actually be registered so that impersonators
can not use them.
* No Ghosts. Unconnected players are purged, freeing up spots for real
players. This mainly works.
* Group power. This is a server-settable option to increase the power of
players who attack or defend in groups.
* Uniform scoring. This is a server-settable option to give everyone on the
same team the same score. It's a socialist scoring system which
tends to encourage teamwork and enrage glory-hungry players.
* Player forwarding. If this server is full, it can forward players to
another. Settable via a server-side option.

This package should have come with the following files:
teamplay.txt A description of the new teamplay options
introduced by this mod set. Read this before
setting up your server or you will be mightily
dissapointed.
credits.txt An incomplete list of the people to whom this
mod set owes its existence.
runes.txt A rather too lengthy description of the way runes
work in this mod. Unfortunately, you have to read
this before you can make things work.
