161) Overview
17---------------------------------------------------------------------
18
19Nerf Arena-Blast 316a is a newly created version of the original developer-patched Nerf 300 (with 1.2 patch and NerfEd fix). Using this as a starting point, the game's accessible resources were pulled apart and re-assembled by hand. While much of the functionality of the game is very similar to what one may find in the latest Community Pack, additional bug-fixes and especially stability improvements have been made that are unique to this version of the game. As such, it has been developed such that it runs independently of the Community Pack. One may simply enjoy the basic game and all of the improvements there in without downloading any Community Pack or patches. Additional changes in later versions will be applied via specialized updating software that is not version dependent. It is my hope that this version will become the standard, now that it has been separated from the Community Pack, making it one of the simplest ways to enjoy the game to date.
20
21If you are a custom content creator, you will also find that many improvements and variables have been added to make your job easier. Countless modders (myself included) have expressed their frustration at NAB's inflexible base classes, difficult to locate properties, and outdated tools. A focused effort has been made to ensure that this version includes as much easily customizable functionality as possible. Small modifications will in many cases no longer require overriding huge chunks of code, making your mods more compatible with default content and other mods. It is also easier to specify custom variables, from HUDs and scoreboards for custom gamemodes, all the way to configuration file-paths for total conversions. You will find below a changelog keeping track of updates added to each version of Nerf Arena-Blast. If you plan on continuing to make custom content, I highly recommend you give it a read so you know what has changed or what features have been added for you to take advantage of.

39Nerf 316a (Initial Release):
40
41Engine bug fixes:
42	- NerfEd crash fixes including the nefarious "nothing selected" crash.
43	- NerfEd's log window now uses the editor icon rather than the game icon.
44	- NerfEd's help topics menu now points to the correct file directory.
45	- Changed several instances of the name "UnrealEd" to "NerfEd" in NerfEd's files.
46	- BlockPlayers class now collides with actors by default, making it actually able to block players.
47	- Unknown weapons can no longer cause breaks, blanks or accessed nones in the blaster priority list.
48	- JumpTriggers no longer activate on dead, swimming or flying players, preventing you from entering bad physics states.
49	- Fixed incorrect bottom surface material number on the Triple Strike ammo mesh.
50	- Straightened out incorrect material numbers on all default weapon pickup meshes, fixing the resulting overlap when custom skins are put on the standard weapon meshes.
51	- You can now only own one speed and jump item each at a time, preventing issues where expiration of multiple overlapping speed or jump powerups would break player movement.
52	- CloudZones no longer attempt to destroy spectators, ghosting players, or actors with bNoDelete or bStatic flags set to true.
53	- PressureZones and VaccuumZones will now only trigger scream sounds on players with health, because dead men tell no tales.
54	- Triggers can no longer be activated by knocked out players, as players with 0 or less health are no longer considered relevant to the trigger.
55	- Fixed some disruptive accessed nones in team scoreboards when they try to sort players with invalid team numbers.
56	- Spectators can no longer use the fly cheat, preventing bad physics states.
57	- Spectators now default to flying physics mode, have no health, are invisible and hidden to AI.
58	- Moved the TimeDemo information away from the side of the screen so it is not overlapped by UI.
59	- Fixed TimeDemo information rendering as translucent when players HUD's entered certain modes.
60	- Fixed bad physics state clients could end up in using the 'walk' command after flying or ghosting while on a server.
61	- The game will now discontinue any zoom modes the leaving player may be in when leaving a match.
62	- Fixed a bug in spawn logic that sometimes prioritized spawns with players still on them. This should result in far less frequent spawnfrags.
63	- Spawn logic no longer considers spawns with teammates near them dangerous.
64	- When players enter liquid zones there is no longer a noticeable delay before ViewFlash effects take effect.
65	- Removed some code that was correcting a few naming issues with a JumpCenter and JumpTrigger in the maps PM-Asteroid and SH-Asteroid and implemented the fixes in the levels themselves.
66	- Several accessed none fixes for the Pawn class.
67	- Pawn code no longer tries to switch to a pending weapon if the pending weapon is the weapon that is currently selected.
68	- Frame animating textures now work properly on meshes.
69	- Fixed several meshes that did not have visible skins in the mesh browser.
70	- Fixed weapon drawing not accounting for player's FOV.
71	- Fixed bots finding armor pickups desirable when they have full armor.
72	- Fixed a few issues where inventory related variables were not being set correctly when dropping or throwing a weapon.
73	- Fixed an issue with weapons where HandlePickupQuery referred to the weapon rather than the item being handled when picking a message type.
74	- Fixed server logging not always working.
75	- Fixed font info reporting only the smallest font instead of the three other sizes.
76	- Made detecting chest shots (hitting the target on the front of a player) more accurate to the target.
77	
78Engine additions:
79	- Increased the maximum networking speed to a more modern value.
80	- Increased default memory cache size to 64 megabytes from 4 (feel free to adjust this even higher, especially if you run a server with mods).
81	- Added default, vanilla maplists to configuration files.
82	- Added new OpenGL and updated D3D video rendering devices. Several small fixes and features are implemented within, including detail texture support, better z-buffering and much more. We reccomend using OpenGL for its enhanced graphical capabilities.
83	- Added support for 24 bit Logo.bmp/SetupLogo.bmp.
84	- Restored and remade RTM Logo.bmp/SetupLogo.bmp.
85	- UCC now displays time spent on an operation and auto-loads Exporters/Factories as specified in int files.
86	- DEP gets disabled if policy is Opt-Out (DEP is incompatible with Galaxy and Fire packages).
87	- The Ammo class now collides with actors by default.
88	- DDartAmmo, MegaJump and MegaSpeed classes now have an editor visible mesh.
89	- SHBalls now have editor visible skins.
90	- Added custom crosshair variables to weapon base class. Modders can now specify custom crosshair graphics and colors for weapons.
91	- RockingSkyZoneInfo now has customizable spin rate accessed via the RotationRate movement variables instead of having spin rates hard-coded.
92	- Added standardized fluid interactions to Projectile. All projectiles should now have basic support for water ripple spawning, and speed reduction when entering a fluid zone.
93	- CloudZones can now optionally ignore players that enter them, as well as the inventories of said players to create CloudZones that are purely visual, and don't act as player boundries.
94	- DDartAmmos, SHBallGuns, and SHBalls can no longer be manually placed in maps via the editor as they are never required to be placed manually.
95	- Games can now perform the ModifyLogin function to modify variables associated with player logins.
96	- Games can now register DamageMutators and MessageMutators that can mutate variables associated with damage and messaging respectively.
97	- Games can now optionally prevent Point Lozenges from spawning, head-stomps from doing damage, and bonus points associated with scoring hits.
98	- Made improvements to mutator's ReplaceWith function including positional offset calculation and additional default properties that were not being transferred.
99	- Added additional handling functions to Mutator for damage modification, message mutation, login modification, endgame prevention, score modification, death prevention and more.
100	- Added low ammo version of Secret Shot icon for custom weapons that may need it.
101	- Added optional sound variable to JumpTriggers and Kickers so one does not need to pair them with additional triggers.
102	- Added a new co-op teleporter that has additional variables and code for handling networked teleportation.
103	- Renamed DamageType's Name variable to DamageName so it no longer conflicts with the Actor's variable Name.
104	- Added an AutoSave trigger for use in community-made singleplayer campaigns. It will save the game to the auto-save slot when triggered.
105	- Weapon class now transfers the value of infinite ammo mode to weapons spawned from it so infinite weapons can be added to maps if desired.
106	- NerfWeapon class now prevents ammo consumption if in infinite ammo mode by default.
107	- Projectiles fired from NerfWeapons are now owned by the NerfWeapon's owner by default. This can be overridden with code within custom weapons.
108	- Weapon's TraceFire function will now re-trace up to a preset amount of times if no actors or walls are hit, preventing most cases where the level may be too large to hit a distant target.
109	- Decorations now have default sounds for being pushed around.
110	- Lava, slime, tar, and nitrogen zones now all have appropriate zone entry and exit sound effects and visuals.
111	- Inventory items with protection type 'speed' or 'jump' are treated as custom Mega Speeds / Mega Jumps and are rendered on the HUD like so. Modders take note that this change is necessary for custom Megaspeed and Megajump pickups to work properly.
112	- When taking damage, players now detect the damage type variable and apply any effects associated with it. Modders may make their own damage types at will.
113	- Games can now enforce re-spawn timers with bForceRespawn.
114	- Added a default mutator that is always present in matches and handles the special built-in game variants Megaspeed, Hardcore, and Turbo.
115	- Raceflag pickups now have a flag icon for their in-editor icon.
116	- Decorative flags are now masked by default.
117	- Added a new class NerfZoneInfo that holds most ZoneInfos and has new properties for overriding SkyZones on a zone by zone basis.
118	- Added a SmokeGen class for making easy smoke effects.
119	- Added a HideCrosshair function to HUD that can be called by code or console command.
120	- Added lives variable to NerfIPlayer for gametypes that need them.
121	- Doubled the maximum maplist size to 64.
122	- Added a shuffle function to all maplists.
123	- Added an optional setting for VaccuumZones to destroy projectiles for zones where a CloudZone would be inappropriate or impractical.
124	- Added a new class CloudZoneEmulator for adding CloudZone effects in difficult to zone areas.
125	- Changed enforced limitations on view bobbing and double dodge sensitivity to put more control of these values in player's hands.
126	- Behindview command can now accept 0, 1, or another number as arguments (0 is off, 1, is on, anything else is a toggle).
127	- You will now only die from fatal fall damage if you have less than 100% damage protection, meaning invulnerable players can no longer be killed by fall damage.
128	- Added a new state 'Flying' where playerpawns can fly but are not invulnerable.
129	- ScaledSprites can now be hidden/unhidden via triggers to simulate light points or flares on changing light sources.
130	- bNoInventory flagged zones now only destroy inventory items with no owner (IE thrown items), while bStripInventory destroys only inventory items owned by a player (IE held items), using them both in conjunction removes both.
131	- Changed ElevatorTrigger behaviour to allow triggering of actors other than elevator movers, and be activated by being triggered by other triggers (allowing advanced elevator logic control).
132	- Added a CanSwitch function to weapons that can return a bool controlling whether or not a gun can be switched to.
133	- Added the GiveWeapon function to GameInfo. It can be used to easily give a weapon to a player via game code.
134	- Rewrote the Arena mutator class to be more modular and user-friendly.
135	- Added the bHideScore variable to bots, bots with this variable set to true do not show up on the scoreboard (useful for singleplayer maps or pre-placed non-combat/decorative AIs).
136	- BehindView mode now travels across level loads preventing loss of view mode.
137	- GameInfos now have functions for deciding if a player's chosen spawn class is an appropriate choice for the gametype, and what to set it to if it is not.
138	- When picking a PlayerStart, games now prioritize dry PlayerStarts over ones in water rather than discounting them altogether (see Splish Splash mutator for why this is a good thing).
139	- Rewrote spawn picking code in team games to utilize the TeamNumber variable of PlayerStarts if you have bSpawnInTeamArea set to true for the GameType. Spawn logic should fall back onto non-team starts if team-numbered ones are not available.
140	- Added the ability to prevent weapon loss on death as a per gametype option. It is also available as a mutator, but now can be forced for custom gametypes where it makes sense to have a persistent inventory.
141	- Added the ability to override HUD mode in singleplayer type games per gametype. Competitive game HUDs are still selectable and the sequence remains unchanged.
142	- Added several new base classes that allow usage of new and improved native functions such as TraceTexture, FastTrace, extended actor spawning, and more.
143	- Added code to support default player meshes activating footstep sound functions.
144	- SpecialEvents now take the volume, radius, and pitch sound settings into account when playing a sound effect.
145	- Rearranged some of the default bindings for the function keys. F5 is now Quicksave, F6 changes HUD mode, and F8 Quickloads.
146	- Underwater "fog" is now a nice shade of blue rather than a murky grey.
147	- Added special code and classes for making custom Plaza levels.
148	- Added new render styles for actors including Add, Highlighted, and AlphaTexture.
149	- Added ReturnReplaceText function which returns the string after replacing the indicated substring.
150	- GameReplicationInfos can now report the GameInfo's BaseMutator for use online with client-called mutator functions (before, they could only be called by the server).
151	- Scoring a Speedblast flag or a Ballblast ball can now be detected by mutators.
152	- Movers no longer crush inventory items that do not collide with the world geometry or are bNoDelete, fixing some issues where non-dropped items and invisible inventory items used for item data could be permanently destroyed.
153	- Added new variables to RacePoints that allow mappers to randomly send RaceBots on auxillery paths, or stop them from accepting movers as in the correct keyframe until they've come to a stop.
154	- Mutators now can have an assigned menu which can be used to set configuration values for that mutator.
155	- Added cheat notification function calls that can be used by games to take action when cheats are used.
156	- Re-implemented WeaponLight class so it and any subclasses work as intended.
157	- Gave BotBait and Ballgenerators their own in-editor skins.
158	- Re-implemented defunct auto update function for ListFactories. On checking the multiplayer servers, the game will attempt to update the ListFactories automatically so users do not have to update their ini files manually. Note: this does not apply to servers yet. Server runners will still need to provide matching uplinks currently.
159	
160Gameplay bug fixes:
161	- Fixed players being able to move before start gun by ducking or jumping by adding a special pre-game state that all human players are put into by start guns.
162	- Fixed crosshair fading out with kill messages.
163	- Replaced default master servers with ones that are still running.
164	- Fixed distorted female statue face texture.
165	- Updated Frazier skin to have visible hair and to replace the ugly grey patch on his shirt.
166	- Fixed the untextured hair on Sam's skin texture.
167	- Updated Sam's and Frazier's ranking icons and PDA pics to match their actual appearance.
168	- Winky and mover targets no longer reward points if the match is over when they are shot.
169	- Winky and mover targets should now detect collision with any projectile or tracefire shot with a damage value greater than zero.
170	- Fixed PM-Training level loading the Amateur Ready Room with the wrong gametype upon completion.
171	- Fixed visual oversights in plaza posters including visible crosshairs.
172	- Fixed masking issues on some textures in various default texture packs.
173	- Applied frame rate limits to various animating textures.
174	- Corrected bot index code identifying both William and Riles as Ted.
175	- Corrected Todd's skin name.
176	- Corrected blank skin settings on all applicable Nerf players and bots.
177	- Bots now ignore touch and damage stimuli while waiting for the startgun, preventing them from starting early.
178	- Fixed a broken texture group in Logos.utx and culled the bad textures from the maps that used them.
179	- Crosshair color no longer tints the console window or its text.
180	- Corrected racebots not having a drowning sound effect.
181	- Players are no longer considered invincible unless the have both 100% damage reduction and reduced damage type 'all', allowing mods to make damage prevention pickups that protect from just one kind of damage.
182	- MegaSpeed, Hardcore and Turbo mode are now all handled by the default mutator class, preventing loss of mode-specific bonuses after respawns.
183	- PA sound messages referring to Mary and Georgie as being on the Barracuda team have been corrected.
184	- Bonus points are no longer scored on hits on invincible players or hits that do 0 or less damage.
185	- Corrected mesh issue on male statue that was causing the plaque it held to be 1 sided and distorted.
186	- Corrected the team names shown on the scoreboard and HUD to be accurate to friendly names rather than in-engine specifications.
187	- Fixed a bug where Champion pointblast could be given a difficulty boost above the highest difficulty, causing out of bounds errors.
188	- Adjusted the timing on the Victory podium sequence so second place announcement is no longer cut off by third place announcement.
189	- You can no longer use the suicide command before the game has started, preventing early starts and spammed telefrags.
190	- Enforced a minimum frame rate on the ready room team videos to help minimize desynchronization from the associated sound triggers.
191	- Fixed an issue where fast weapon switching mode was not consistently implemented across all default weapons
192	- Whomper shock-waves no longer repeatedly affect the momentum of Inventory items, causing them to become positionally de-synced online.
193	- Fixed corrupt and noise-ridden sound effects 'liftmx3' and 'liftmx2' in GenSound.uax that often caused crashes in levels that used them.
194	- Fixed corrupt sound groups in the brcuda sound pack.
195	- Default weaponry is no longer given to spectating players.
196	- Respawn messages are no longer shown on the scoreboards of spectators.
197	- Fixed team games disallowing spectating from SpectatorCams on the basis that they are not on your team.
198	- PointPickups given to players on respawn no longer leave behind a small beacon of light revealing the location of spawn points. Dropped PointPickups however will still glow, as well as ones placed by map makers unless otherwise edited.
199	- Fixed some faulty code that caused strafe animations to not be played while strafing. Players no longer weirdly moonwalk while strafing.
200	- Added additional fixes to ensure there is only one chance to grab the gold flag, once it is tagged, no other players can tag it.
201	- Added some checks to ensure that players that cheat in a gold ball early do not lock up themselves or the gametype into an unwinnable state. Players who shoot the gold ball in without the first six balls still receive points, but should no longer receive credit for scoring the gold ball.
202	- Gold balls that are cheated in before the gametype is ready to spawn a gold ball no longer respawn after being scored. They are removed from the game to prevent further bad or unwinnable states the gametype can get stuck in.
203	- When arming players at the start of a match, the weapon is spawned with the Player as the owner automatically set.
204	- If a guided disc is spawned without a guider it turns into a normal un-guided disc.
205	- Countdown clock now works online and is not butted against the exact top of your screen.
206	- Countdown clock no longer starts until the start gun has gone off (if it exists).
207	- Removed code in Speedblast bots that was adjusting their collision height as a kludge for maps with some areas that had low ceilings. Bots will no longer look as if they are stuck in the ground, and fixes to these too small areas will be implemented in the maps themselves.
208	- Fixed a bug in the scoreboard code that caused a mismatch between your player name and extended player name of the format "PlayerName(ContestantName)". The game will no longer lose track of your standing in the game, resulting in loss of the identification marker next to your icon.
209	- Fixed female bots playing only male taunts.
210	- Players can no longer fire or move once the game has ended. They are forced into the end game screen as soon as the game ends, preventing "after the buzzer" cheating. Players must still admire the scoreboard for at least 4 seconds before they can skip to the next match with a key-press.
211	- Fixed a bug in the Victory trigger that caused the podium to be decorated in amateur textures for the Championship arena.
212	- Score sorting is now checked against a timestamp to prevent players with identical scores becoming out of order.
213	- Fixed a logic error that caused the Speedblast HUD to indicate you needed to go to flag 1 after getting flag 7.
214	- Players no longer float when they enter the endgame state, instead continuing to be affected by physics.
215	- VacuumZones, PressureZones, CloudZones, and CloudZoneEmulator now ignore players who are in the endgame state.
216	- Raceflag pickups no longer collide with world geometry unless they are in the falling physics state. This prevents them from being destroyed on encroachment.
217	- Your rank now factors into determining if the game should save your score. If you have a worse score than your high score, but a better rank, this new score will be saved. This will prevent situations where you can't better your rank due to an unbeatable score (usually from cheating).
218	- Message of the day no longer shows on non-network games.
219	- Weapon affecting pickups now no longer deactivate visual effects prematurely if more than one type is picked up at a time.
220	- Weapon affecting pickups no longer attempt to stack bonuses from the same type of pickup.
221	- When recharging a rechargable pickup, the game now play's the new pickup's pickup sound rather than the one of the pickup you already own.
222	- SHBalls' movement is now far more reliably reported in online games.
223	- Bots added to Speedblast games after the starting countdown has expired no longer wait for a countdown that will never happen.
224	- Removed some code that would destroy Speedblast bots if they were taking too long to make progress in the race.
225	- Knockout messages now show the score of the player you knocked out instead of your own score.
226	- Re-aligned the level info at the top of the scoreboard and hud so that they match up.
227	
228Gameplay additions:
229	- Added Suit Batteries +5 to the game.
230	- Rewrote crosshair rendering to depend on a player selected crosshair and color.
231	- Created detail texture pack: Detail.utx.
232	- Added additional textures including color variations and missing texture joins to various texture packs.
233	- All default weapons have custom crosshairs. Weapon-based crosshairs are optional and toggle-able via configuration menus.
234	- HUD now shrinks the font size of the score text for low window resolutions.
235	- HUD no longer renders 11th as 11st, 12th as 12nd, and 13th as 13rd.
236	- HUD now has optional low health sound alert override variable.
237	- HUD renders ammo and weapon icons based on weapons' properties, not groups, to further support custom weaponry.
238	- HUD now renders the icon of the armor pickup with highest priority in your powerup bar.
239	- Rewrote first person weapon rendering so the damage doubler (and any custom classes) can create a shell around weapons rather than overwriting the skin (in first person only).
240	- Added some default damage type classes utilized by default projectiles and weapons.
241	- Implemented center handedness rendering to all default weapons. Center handedness is no longer the same as hidden handedness.
242	- Implemented third person recoil animations on all default guns that were missing it.
243	- Added default damage types to all default weapons.
244	- Added some new injury sounds to fill unused sound slots.
245	- Added a sound for stepping in shallow water.
246	- Added an underwater death sound.
247	- Added an optional message beep sound that can be configured on or off.
248	- Electro Shield now has a hit sound and visual effect.
249	- Added the ability to play semi-randomized taunt sounds with taunt keys.
250	- Improved the ability for players to feign death. It will still not fool bots.
251	- Item re-spawn visual effect now approximates the shape of the item it is re-spawning.
252	- Spree messages now utilize all messages as intended instead of only a select few.
253	- Reimplemented teleportation visual effect. This effect makes teleporting players look a bit more like they're materializing.
254	- Spawned Hyperstrike trails now take the visual properties of the Hyperstrike effect that created them. This prevents the first spawned trail node from looking different from the rest in custom weapons.
255	- HUD now draws team messages in appropriate team colors.
256	- HUD now draws team messages with region names in parenthesis to help with team locational awareness. Note that the mapmaker must implement zone names for this feature to appear.
257	- HUD now checks ZoneInfos and LocationIDs based on an advanced logic to determine which one(s) you may be in, and what has highest priority.
258	- Changed UI team colors to be more appropriate.
259	- HUD renders lives below score in games that use lives.
260	- Team HUDs will now also render lives in gametypes that use them when placing the crosshair over a teammate.
261	- You can now start a map with a maximum of 64 total initial bots. Adding more bots is not advisable if you have a weak computer.
262	- Added BotRebalance functions, toggled with ini settings, that allow gametypes to automatically adjust bot counts for players that join or leave. This setting can be toggled for offline and online matches individually.
263	- Adjusted initial bot spawning logic to take into account career mode, current map-recommended bot settings, and team or non-team spawning.
264	- Team game modes now have code that changes the gender-specific sound effects of a player that is placed on a team without a player of the same gender as his or her selected character. This prevents males with female voices or vice-versa.
265	- All normal single player matches accessed from ready rooms now start in career mode, meaning they have special rules applied to them not applied to quick bot-matches (Can't set a frag limit, time limit is always 10 in gametypes that use time limits, etc...).
266	- When all the standard 28 bot names are in use, the game will randomize from a list of bot names before falling back on the "Bot#" naming convention.
267	- Restored code that played sound effects to players on spree messages and added cheering sounds for said sounds.
268	- Applied more accurate collision widths to all players.
269	- Victory podium is now only used in singleplayer career mode. It is no longer used in online or offline bot-matches.
270	- Behindview setting is now saved across lives.
271	- Added the AddTime command: adds or subtracts time (in minutes) from the clock in a match (AddTime <number>).
272	- Added the Smite command: causes a Whomper explosion at the selected pawn's location (smite <name>).
273	- Added the SmiteAll command:smites everyone but yourself (and team members if in a team game).
274	- Added the SetAdmin command: allows admins to set additional, temporary admins without giving out a password (SetAdmin <name>) NOTE: you must have logged in with your password, temporary admins cannot assign other temporary admins.
275	- Added the UnSetAdmin command: allows admins to take away admin abilities (UnSetAdmin <name>) NOTE: you must have logged in with your password, temporary admins cannot assign other temporary admins.
276	- Added the AllAdmin command: allows an admin to strip all admins (including or not including themselves) of admin rights or make everyone an admin (AllAdmin <true = all admins, false = no admins> <optional true = include self, false = exclude self, no value = exclude self>) NOTE: you must have logged in with your password, temporary admins cannot assign other temporary admins.
277	- Added the AdminSay command: allows admins to send messages to all players in centered blue text (AdminSay <message>).
278	- Added the AddBot command: allows admins to add an additional bot to play.
279	- Added the PointLimit command: specifying a positive number afterwards will set the point limit to that value (if you are an admin), while specifying a negative number allows any players to see the current point limit.
280	- Added the BotBalance command: toggles on and off bot re-balancing mid-game.
281	- Added the BotReBalance command: re-balances the bots on demand.
282	- Added the Spectate command: allows you to turn into a spectator online manually (currently buggy).
283	- Added the AddAmmo command: gives all your currently owned guns maximum ammo based on the current MaxAmmo setting for each gun.
284	- Added the Loaded command: specifying a number gives you that slot's default weapon, while no number or a 0 gives you all the default weapons (max ammo included).
285	- Changed the logic bots use to select taunts to include all taunt types instead of just two.
286	- Removed the bUnlit flag from several projectiles, they are now all affected by the level's lighting at least partially.
287	- Ball shooter now has animations and handedness settings.
288	- Ball shooter defaults to inventory group 0, and only changes to group 1 if you have one or more scavenger hunt balls in your inventory, meaning you cannot switch to it using the '1' hotkey unless you actually have balls to shoot.
289	- If you switch to the Ball Shooter with no balls it automatically switches to the next gun in line.
290	- The Ball Shooter now has a set autoswitch rating of -10; it will no longer consider itself the best weapon over the Secret Shot when it runs out of ammo.

292	- RespawnPoints now use the same spawn effects as PlayerStarts.
293	- Added a sound effect for touching a flag (only triggers once and only if you touch the flag you currently need).
294	- Removed code that caused flag pickups to be untouchable if someone was already touching it. More than one person can now touch a flag at a time, which should result in less pile-ups (AI pile-ups especially) near flags.
295	- Added sound effects for Double Damage firing and draining.
296	- Added sound effects for the Mega Jump and MegaSpeed draining.
297	- A sound now plays when you step in Ballzooka goo.
298	- Non-team game scoreboards now render up to 32 players (up from 16) as will fit on screen.
299	- Bots no longer have a ping displayed in network games, preventing bots from looking like live players in the scoreboard.

304	- Spectating players are now noted as such in scoreboards.
305	- Improved spectating to show name, health and lives (if applicable) when spectating other players.
306	- Multiplayer waiting time decreased to 10 seconds (from 25) so that a 10 second minimum announcement afterwards will bring the total wait time to roughly 20 seconds.
307	- If a level does not have a map-defined StartGun, the game adds one, preventing game start for ten seconds, and an additional 10 second player waiting period in online games only.
308	- Nerf HUD now has two special rendering modes which hide icons / rank / score, and icons / rank respectively. These modes are useful for community-created single player games.
309	- Speedblast games now support up to 8 RespawnsPoints per flag, reducing spawn deaths.
310	- Raceflag pickups are now rendered as sprites in editor and invisible in game.
311	- Added an error message for visiting Speedblast flags out of order.
312	- Speedblast bots now recieve a speed boost based on difficulty. Speedblast bots are already slow due to the way Speedblast handles pathing, so now they'll have a slight edge in Mega Nerf (requiring you to outsmart them), and no boost in Nerf Juniour. Also removed code from within RaceBots that was giving incorrect speed boosts based on difficulty.
313	- The gold ball in Ballblast now has a distinctive trail that spawns both when it flies through the air and when a player holding the gold ball (who has also scored all six of the other balls) moves.
314	- All NerfWeapon fire rates can now be scaled by the FiringSpeed variable.
315	- Added code to track the last player who damaged a player so some environmental kills can be claimed.
316	- Removed a built-in check that stops Speedblast maps from having and displaying point or time limits. They can now have point or time limits for special challenge reasons.
317	- Human players now also breathe heavily after a match has ended, like their bot counterparts.
318	- Added some variation in how fast players breathe at the end of a match.
319	- Human players now play warm-up animations while waiting for the starting gun to go off, like their bot counterparts.
320	- Added special Time Trial and Point Trial hidden modes to Deathmatch game for use in mutator challenges.
321	- When playing a match with a pointlimit, you now see the pointlimit next to your score. If the pointlimit requires a minimum amount of points (Point Trial mode) it will also render a plus sign.
322	- Score is now adjusted using two new functions (AddScore and SetScore). These functions allow score changes to be caught in GameInfo classes to be timestamped and even modified by mutators based on the situation.
323	- The view now switches to third person temporarily (unless the layer is dead) on game end on both online and offline games instead of just online ones.
324	- The header at the start of the match now fades out slower to allow you enough time to read it.
325	- The bar containing player scores below their respective icons in non-team HUDs will now expand to fit > 5 digits.
326	- Speedblast flags and ballblast balls can now trigger events when scored.
327	- Ballblast ball generators can now be enabled / disabled via triggering them. Disabled generators will not be chosen to spawn balls.
328	- Standardized all Speedblast flag pickups to have flag display properties. Mappers should now only need to use these updated pickups instead of also placing a decorative flag.
329	- Speedblast flags now have a built-in sound that they will play upon being touched for the first time.
330	- StartGuns' buzzer sound effect is no longer overridden by player footsteps.

334	- Added Skill Tokens, hidden collectables that are found in vanilla (or custom career) maps.
335	- All weapon affecting pickups now sub-class a WeaponAffector parent to make handling multiple weapon affectors on one weapon smoother.
336	- All player protecting items now sub-class an Armor parent to make armor detection smoother for mutators.
337	- All player healing items now sub-class a Health parent to make health detection smoother for mutators.
338	- Added a special bonus event unlocked by beating the vanilla game.
339	- Both point and frag counts and limits can now be rendered seperately on non-teamgame HUDs.
340	- Added a delay between PA announcements of what arenas are open so they do not constantly repeat.
341	- Ballblast levels now send a text notification when the gold ball enters play.

375	- Added a new maplists editing menu. Allows for the changing of the maplists (or map rotations) without editing text files. This menu will enforce the maximum of 64 maps per maplist.
376	- Both Maplist and Botmatch menus can now be re-ordered via dragging the included items list, and items can be dragged in and out of included and excluded items lists.
377	- When changing your resolution, the game will now ask if you wish to keep the new settings, or revert them (reverts automatically after ten seconds of no selection).
378	- Added an additional check to temporarily prevent players from quitting the game while zoomed. The game will un-zoom the player before resuming the quit process.

418	- Nerf Cannon will no longer attempt to detonate detballs that do not exist.
419	- Nerf Cannon no longer attempts to use ammo to enter the alt-firing state, rather checking once it is in the alt-firing state, preventing cases where ammo could be consumed without proper reason after detonating a detball.
420	- Nerf Cannon det balls now send their destroyed status back to the Nerf Cannon that created them when destroyed, ensuring they cannot be detonated twice in a row.
421	- During the alt-firing state, the Nerf Cannon can no longer be fired, alt-fired, put away or dropped, preventing it from getting stuck in certain bad states.
422	- Scattershot now loads as full of a clip as it can on pickup rather than assuming it will have enough ammo to fill a clip.
423	- Scattershot now checks when it is brought up if it needs to be reloaded and plays the reload animation if so filling the clip as much as possible.
424	- Triple Strike now loads as full of a clip as it can on pickup rather than assuming it will have enough ammo to fill a clip.

464	- Slightly adjusted the scale of the Nerf ball projectile to match the scale of the weapons.
465	- Bolos that hit walls now spawn two pulseballs. They are similar to Nerf balls, except they are electrocuted and cannot be picked up for ammo re-use.
466	- Slightly increased the spread on the Pulsator's alternate fire.
467	- Pulsator now consumes two ammo per shot, if primary fire cannot consume 2 ammo, it will fire a pulseball instead.

499	- Whomper shockwave now does damage based on closeness to the explosion, and has a minimum damage of 30 for anyone inside its extent. Note that damage is still calculated based on drawscale per tick, so if you are close enough to the center you will take multiple repeated hits to your health.
500	- Darts now spawn smaller effects on hitting walls, and larger ones on hitting players.
501	- Darts now start at the proper drawscale and no longer shrink upon hitting a wall.
