Both teams are able to build structures such as spawn points, which are vital to their victory. The goal of Tremulous is to eliminate the opposing team and all of their spawn points. \layout Standard Each team in Tremulous differs fundamentally from the other. The aliens are class based, with two classes initially available: the alien team's builder, known as the Granger, and the Dretch, the weakest offensive alien. The aliens are awarded frags for killing their foes which may be used to evolve into stronger classes, capable of greater and more varied maneuvers. In contrast the human team is upgrade based, receiving credits for kills that may be exchanged at an Armoury structure for new weapons, armour and equipment. Two such upgrades are available for free: a rifle and a construction kit, used for building structures. \layout Standard During a game of Tremulous, each team occupies one of three stages of developmen t. These stages are reached by accruing more than a specific total number of kills by the whole team. Each new stage unlocks new classes, upgrades and buildable structures. If one team reaches a stage significantly earlier than the other team it stands a better chance of defeating the opposing team. \layout Standard Section \begin_inset LatexCommand \ref{sec:Game} \end_inset details the content of the game including the various controls that are used to play. Section \begin_inset LatexCommand \ref{sec:Technical} \end_inset describes some technical aspects of how Tremulous works. It is not necessary to read this section in order to play the game. \layout Section \begin_inset LatexCommand \label{sec:Game} \end_inset Game \layout Subsection Aliens \layout Standard Two classes are available upon joining the alien team: the Dretch and the Granger. As you gain kills, you may use your earned frags to evolve into higher classes with the \noun on Use Structure/Evolve \noun default button. The alien team is mostly limited to melee attacks and must use stealth and speed to defeat the longer range humans. All aliens automatically regenerate health at a slow rate. \layout Subsubsection Classes \layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \emph on Granger \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \begin_inset Graphics filename granger.jpg scale 85 \end_inset \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Cost: 0 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Stage: 1 \end_inset \end_inset \layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Ability \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Control \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Build \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \noun on Primary Attack \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Destroy Structure \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \noun on Deconstruct Structure \noun default on an alien structure \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard \end_inset \end_inset \layout Standard The \emph on Granger \emph default is the alien team's builder class. \noun on Primary Attack \noun default will bring up a menu of structures available for building.

Each .particle file can contain an arbitrary number of discrete particle systems, much like a .shader file can house many shaders. A particle system is declared by a name followed by curly braces within which the functionality of the particle system is defined. For example: \layout LyX-Code aShinyNewParticleSystem { } \layout Standard Inside the particle system declaration are placed up to four particle ejectors. Ejectors are identified by the keyword ejector and curly braces: \layout LyX-Code aShinyNewParticleSystem \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code ejector { } \layout LyX-Code ejector { } \layout LyX-Code thirdPersonOnly \layout LyX-Code } \layout Standard The thirdPersonOnly keyword may be used to specify that the particle system is not visible from the first person if it relates to that client. The role of the particle ejector is to create some number of new particles at a defined rate. These attributes are controlled by the following parameters: \layout Itemize \emph on count |infinite \emph default - the number of particles this ejector will spawn. \layout Itemize \emph on delay \emph default - the delay in msec before the ejector starts spawning. \layout Itemize \emph on period \emph default - the period between particle ejections. \layout Standard It is perfectly acceptable to have an initial period of zero. In this case the number of particles specified by the count keyword will be ejected at once. It is not permissible to have count infinite and a period of zero for obvious reasons. \layout Standard At ejection time each ejector creates up to four new particles based on templates. These are specified in the ejector section using the particle keyword: \layout LyX-Code aShinyNewParticleSystem \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code ejector \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code particle { } \layout LyX-Code particle { } \layout LyX-Code count 50 \layout LyX-Code delay 0 \layout LyX-Code period 0 - 0 \layout LyX-Code } \layout LyX-Code } \layout Standard Each particle template has a number of attributes: \layout Itemize \emph on shader |sync ... \emph default - this specifies the shaders to use for the particle. The frame rate can be set to a static rate or the \emph on sync \emph default parameter can be used in which case the frame rate will be synchronised to the lifetime of the particle such that the first frame is displayed on birth and the last frame is displayed immediately before death. \layout Itemize model ... - use one of the specified models as the particle. This cannot be used in conjunction with the shader keyword. \layout Itemize modelAnmation |sync - animation parameters to use when model particles are employed. \layout Itemize \emph on displacement \emph default - a static displacement about the attachment point. The \emph on variance \emph default parameter specifies a random displacement in all axes. \layout Itemize \emph on normalDisplacement \emph default - for particle systems that have their normal set (impact particle systems for example) this specifies the magnitude of a displacement along the normal. \layout Itemize \emph on velocityType static|static_transform|tag|cent|normal \emph default - this specifies how the particle will compute its initial velocity. \emph on static \emph default means it is specified statically in the .particle file, \emph on static_transform means the same, except that it is transformed by the orientatio n matrix of what it is attached to, tag \emph default means the velocity is in the direction of the tag it is attached to, \emph on cent \emph default means the velocity is in the direction of the cent it is attached to and \emph on normal \emph default means the velocity is in the direction of the particle system normal. \layout Itemize \emph on velocityDir linear|point \emph default - this specifies whether the initial velocity is computed as a simple direction or as the direction towards a secondary point (defined by \emph on velocityPoint \emph default or dynamically through \emph on velocityType cent \emph default ). \layout Itemize \emph on velocity \emph default - for when \emph on velocityType \emph default \emph on static \emph default is present this specifies the direction. The \emph on variance \emph default here is specified in degrees e.g. "~5" - up to 5 degrees deviation. \layout Itemize \emph on velocityMagnitude \emph default - the magnitude of the velocity. \layout Itemize \emph on velocityPoint \emph default - for when \emph on velocityType static \emph default and \emph on velocityDir point \emph default are present this specifies the point to move towards. \layout Itemize \emph on parentVelocityFraction \emph default - for when the particle system is attached to a cent this specifies the fraction of the cent's velocity that is added to the particle's velocity. \layout Itemize \emph on accelerationType static|static_transform|tag|cent|normal \emph default - this specifies how the particle will compute its acceleration. \emph on static \emph default means it is specified statically in the .particle file, \emph on static_transform means the same, except that it is transformed by the orientatio n matrix of what it is attached to, \emph default \emph on tag \emph default means the acceleration is in the direction of the tag it is attached to, \emph on cent \emph default means the acceleration is in the direction of the cent it is attached to and \emph on normal \emph default means the acceleration is in the direction of the particle system normal. \layout Itemize \emph on accelerationDir linear|point \emph default - this specifies whether the acceleration is computed as a simple direction or as the direction towards a secondary point (defined by \emph on accelerationPoint \emph default or dynamically through \emph on accelerationType cent \emph default ). \layout Itemize \emph on acceleration \emph default - for when \emph on accelerationType \emph default static is present this specifies the direction. The \emph on variance \emph default here is specified in degrees e.g. "~5" - up to 5 degrees deviation. \layout Itemize \emph on accelerationMagnitude \emph default - the magnitude of the acceleration. \layout Itemize \emph on accelerationPoint \emph default - for when \emph on accelerationType static \emph default and \emph on accelerationDir point \emph default are present this specifies the point to move towards. \layout Itemize \emph on bounce |cull \emph default - the fraction of velocity that is reflected when a particle collides. If this is set to 0.0 the particle won't collide. When \emph on cull \emph default is used particles are culled as soon as they collide with objects. \layout Itemize bounceMark - make a mark at each bounce point for up to bounces. \layout Itemize bounceSound - make a sound at each bounce point for up to bounces. \layout Itemize dynamicLight { } - attach a dynamic light to this particle. \layout Itemize color { } { } - color the particle where refers to the initial color component and refers to the final color component. \layout Itemize \emph on overdrawProtection \emph default - cull particles that occupy a large amount of screen space. \layout Itemize \emph on realLight \emph default - light particles using the lightgrid instead of fullbright. \layout Itemize \emph on cullOnStartSolid \emph default - cull particles that are spawned inside brushes. \layout Itemize \emph on radius \emph default - the radius of the particle throughout its lifetime. The \emph on delay \emph default parameter specifies the time in msec before radius scaling begins. The \emph on initial \emph default and \emph on final \emph default parameters specify the radii of the particle in quake units. \layout Itemize \emph on alpha \emph default - the alpha of the particle throughout its lifetime. The \emph on delay \emph default parameter specifies the time in msec before alpha scaling begins. The \emph on initial \emph default and \emph on final \emph default parameters specify the alpha of the particle where 1.0 is totally opaque and 0.0 is totally transparent. \layout Itemize \emph on rotation \emph default - the rotation of the particle throughout its lifetime. The \emph on delay \emph default parameter specifies the time in msec before the rotation begins. The \emph on initial \emph default and \emph on final \emph default parameters specify the rotation of the particle in degrees. \layout Itemize \emph on lifeTime \emph default - the lifetime of the particle. \layout Itemize \emph on childSystem \emph default - specifies a particle system to attach to this particle. \layout Itemize childTrailSystem - specifies a trail system to attach to this particle. \layout Itemize \emph on onDeathSystem \emph default - specifies a particle system to spawn at the point where this particle died. \layout Standard Except for vector components, \emph on shader fps ... \emph default and \emph on period \emph default , every value can be specified with a random variance. The syntax for this is as follows: \layout LyX-Code [value][~variance[%]] \layout Standard So the following forms are possible, where random is a random number between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive: \layout LyX-Code 5.0 // 5.0 \layout LyX-Code 5.0~8.0 // 5.0 + ( random * 8.0 ) \layout LyX-Code 5.0~200% // 5.0 + ( random * 5.0 * 200% ) \layout LyX-Code ~7.0 // random * 7.0 \layout Standard This allows for relatively flexible randomisation of most of the particle's parameters. For parameters taking an initial and final value, specifying the final value as '-' will result in a final value the same as the initial value. \layout Standard For the purposes of map based particle systems using \emph on misc_particle_system \emph default it is safe to ignore \emph on velocityType \emph default and \emph on accelerationType tag|cent|normal \emph default , \emph on normalDisplacement \emph default and \emph on parentVelocityFraction \emph default altogether. \layout Standard Of course, it is not necessary to specify every parameter documented here for every particle system. If a parameter is not included it will usually default to zero. C/C++ style comments can be used throughout. There are an enormous number of possible combinations of particle systems parameters and as such it is impractical to test them all. For this reason it is possible that certain permutations do not behave as expected or wrongly. In this case you may have discovered a bug - let us know. Having said this when you're having problems with a particle system make sure you scroll up the console and check that it compiled OK, I've written the parser to be very intolerant of error. \layout Standard Here is an example particle system: \layout LyX-Code aShinyNewParticleSystem \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code ejector \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code particle \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code shader sync shader1 shader2 \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code velocityType static \layout LyX-Code velocityDir linear \layout LyX-Code velocityMagnitude 200 \layout LyX-Code velocity 0 0 1 ~30 \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code accelerationType static \layout LyX-Code accelerationDir linear \layout LyX-Code accelerationMagnitude 50 \layout LyX-Code acceleration 0 0 1 ~0 \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code radius 0 10.0 50.0 \layout LyX-Code alpha 0 1.0 1.0 \layout LyX-Code rotation 0 ~360 - \layout LyX-Code bounce 0.4 \layout LyX-Code lifeTime 1500 \layout LyX-Code } \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code count 50 \layout LyX-Code delay 0 \layout LyX-Code period 0 - 0 \layout LyX-Code } \layout LyX-Code } \layout Subsection Trail System \layout Standard Files matching the pattern scripts/*.trail are loaded as trail system description files. Each .trail file can contain an arbitrary number of discrete trail systems, much like a .shader file can house many shaders. A trail system is declared by a name followed by curly braces within which the functionality of the trail system is defined. For example: \layout LyX-Code aShinyNewTrailSystem { } \layout Standard Inside the particle system declaration are placed up to four trail beams. Beams are identified by the keyword beam and curly braces: \layout LyX-Code aShinyNewTrailSystem \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code beam { } \layout LyX-Code beam { } \layout LyX-Code thirdPersonOnly \layout LyX-Code } \layout Standard The thirdPersonOnly keyword may be used to specify that the trail system is not visible from the first person if it relates to that client. A trail beam describes the appearance of one element of the trail system: \layout LyX-Code \layout Itemize \emph on shader - the shader to use to texture this beam. \layout Itemize segments - the number of quads that make up the beam. \layout Itemize width - the width of the beam at the front and back. \layout Itemize alpha - the alpha of the beam at the front and back. \layout Itemize color { } {
} - the color of the beam at the front and back. \layout Itemize segmentTime - how long a single segment lasts when the trail is only attached at one end. \layout Itemize fadeOutTime - how long this beam takes to fade away. \layout Itemize textureType [stretch ]|[repeat [front|back] ] - how to texture the beam. stretch causes the texture to be stretched from the front to the back using the specified texture coordinates. repeat causes the texture to be repeated over a specified length either from the front or the back. \layout Itemize model ... - use one of the specified models as the particle. This cannot be used in conjunction with the shader keyword. \layout Itemize modelAnmation |sync - animation parameters to use when model particles are employed. \layout Itemize \emph on realLight \emph default - light particles using the lightgrid instead of fullbright. \layout Itemize jitter - this specifies a random jitter of the position of each beam node by magnitude every period. \layout Itemize jitterAttachments - if this is specified the end points of the beam are jittered as well as the intervening nodes. \layout Subsection Map Rotation System \layout Standard The file \emph on maprotation.cfg \emph default is used to describe up to 16 map rotations which may be used by a Tremulous server. In its most simple form, the syntax is as follows: \layout LyX-Code mapRotation1 \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code map1 \layout LyX-Code map2 \layout LyX-Code map3 \layout LyX-Code } \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code mapRotation2 \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code map6 \layout LyX-Code map3 \layout LyX-Code map9 \layout LyX-Code } \layout Standard This specifies two rotations, each consisting of three maps. The contents of the cvar \emph on g_initialMapRotation \emph default specifies the map rotation to start after the map the server was started with has finished. It is possible to specify a list of server commands to be run after a map has finished: \layout LyX-Code mapRotation3 \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code map1 \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code set sv_hostname \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Just finished map1! \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset \layout LyX-Code set g_teamForceBalance 0 \layout LyX-Code } \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code map2 \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code set g_teamForceBalance 1 \layout LyX-Code } \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code map3 \layout LyX-Code } \layout Standard Primitive logic is also available: \layout LyX-Code mapRotation4 \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code map1 \layout LyX-Code goto map3 \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code map2 \layout LyX-Code if numClients > 8 \layout LyX-Code mapRotation3 \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code map3 \layout LyX-Code if lastWin aliens \layout LyX-Code mapRotation2 \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code if random \layout LyX-Code mapRotation1 \layout LyX-Code } \layout LyX-Code \layout LyX-Code mapRotation5 \layout LyX-Code { \layout LyX-Code map1 \layout LyX-Code if lastWin humans \layout LyX-Code map4 \layout LyX-Code map2 \layout LyX-Code map3 \layout LyX-Code goto map1 \layout LyX-Code map4 \layout LyX-Code map5 \layout LyX-Code } \layout Standard The \series bold goto \series default keyword is used to unconditionally branch to either another map \emph on in the current rotation \emph default or another map rotation entirely. The \series bold if \series default keyword is used in conjunction with a condition to decide whether or not to branch to the specified map or rotation (as with the \series bold goto \series default keyword). The condition itself can be one of \series bold numClients \series default , \series bold lastWin \series default or \series bold random \series default , where \series bold \series default is \series bold < \series default , \series bold > \series default or \series bold = \series default and \series bold \series default is \series bold aliens \series default or \series bold humans \series default . The \series bold random \series default condition simply chooses whether or not to execute the change randomly, with each outcome equally likely. \layout Subsection Server Administration System (g_admin) \layout Standard The Tremulous game code has a built-in administration system which can work outside of traditional server console/rcon admin commands. Instead of passwords, administration rights are granted on a unique player identifier called cl_guid. Because of this, day to day administration tasks (like !kick and !mute) can easily be shared among a server's regular players without the risk of giving those players too much power or having to share passwords. \layout Standard Although specific admin rights can be granted to an individual, rights are primarily handed through a level system. By default there are 6 levels defined (0-5). Players with out any admin status are treated as level 0 with various additiona l rights added to each following level with level 5 having full rights. You can change what rights each level has by editing the configuration file (see below). Levels are referenced by number, but they can also be given names. There can up to 32 levels defined. The number used to define the level has special significance since rights are handled very heirarchically (e.g. a level 4 admin can not !mute a level 5 admin since his victim has a higher level). \layout Standard Administrator rights can granted with !setlevel command so a server operator need not leave the game, edit files, restart, or even type a password to adjust another player's admin status. However, the configuration for this system is contained in an easy to edit text file that allows a great deal of flexibility in configuring fine-grained access rights for each user and/or access level. \layout Subsubsection Quick Start \layout Standard To get started, you simply need to ensure that the g_admin cvar is set to the name of a writable data file (default is \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset admin.dat \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ). Then connect to the server with your Tremulous client, then run the following command in your client console: \layout LyX-Code /rcon YOUR_RCON_PASSORD !setlevel YOUR_NAME 5 \layout Standard By default, the level 5 user is a super-user and has access to all '!' commands. From that point you can use the /!help command in your client to familiarize yourself with all the commands. \layout Subsubsection Related Cvars \layout Standard \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \layout Standard g_admin \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Set to the name of the file in the fs_game directory that should contain all admin data such as admin definitions and bans. \layout Standard If set to a blank string \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset admin commands will not be available. \layout Standard Example: \layout Standard set g_admin \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset admin.dat \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset \layout Standard Defaults to \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset admin.dat \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (off) \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard g_adminLog \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Set to the name of the file in the fs_game directory that will log all '!' commands. \layout Standard Defaults to \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset admin.log \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard g_adminParseSay \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Set this to non-zero if you want the admin system to accept commands in player chat messages. \layout Standard Default is 1 (on) \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard g_adminNameProtect \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Set this to non-zero if you want the admin system to lock each admin's name to his cl_guid to prevent imporsonation. \layout Standard Default is 1 (on) \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard g_adminTempBan \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard Set this to the time a player should be automatically banned for when he/she is vote kicked or kicked with the !kick command. \layout Standard Default is 2m (two minutes) \end_inset \end_inset \layout Subsubsection Data File Format \layout Standard All admin authorization, configuration, and ban information is storedin the file identified with the g_admin cvar. This file is plain text and each of the data elements are seperated by blank lines. The supported data elements are [level], [admin], [ban], and [command]. \layout Standard The [level] block is used to define which admin rights a user of a particular level has. For example: \layout LyX-Code [level] \layout LyX-Code level = 3 \layout LyX-Code name = Level 3 Admin \layout LyX-Code flags = i1ahCpPkmy \layout Standard This definition grants all level 3 admins all the commands identified by the characters in the flags string (see flags table below). \layout Standard The [admin] block is used to define all players with administrative rights as identified by their cl_guid. These blocks are created/updated/deleted automatically when the !setlevel command is used. Additionally, these blocks can be used to grant special rights to specific users above or below the rights given to that user's [level] definition. For example: \layout LyX-Code [admin] \layout LyX-Code name = bill \layout LyX-Code guid = 1ABABAA74D54C3D25722E5E21121334 \layout LyX-Code level = 3 \layout LyX-Code flags = B-ym \layout Standard This grants the user bill all the rights of a level 3 user, plus the 'B' flag which grants access to the !showbans command. It also takes away from bill the !allready (y) command and the !mute and !unmute (m) commands. \layout Standard The [ban] block is created with the !ban command, removed with the !unban command (or when it expires), and modified with the !adjustban command. Both the guid and the ip parameters are used for ban enforement. The ip parameter can also be used to crudely widen the scope of the IP ban. For example: \layout LyX-Code [ban] \layout LyX-Code name = all !nexterholland@ \layout LyX-Code guid = ABCABCABCABCABCABCABCABCABCABCAB \layout LyX-Code ip = 206.248.131. \layout LyX-Code reason = banned by admin \layout LyX-Code made = 04/18/06 19:15:35 \layout LyX-Code expires = 0 \layout LyX-Code banner = Fry \layout Standard This would prevent anyone with an IP address inside of 206.248.131.0/24 or with the cl_guid ABCABCABCABCABCABCABCABCABCABCAB from connecting to the server. The expires field is the UNIX timestamp when the ban is no longer in effect, the special case is 0 which means it never expires. \layout Standard The [command] block can be used to create simple ! commands. The most practial use is to create certain .cfg files which change game settings and allow high ranking admins to load up those settings through a ! command. For example: \layout LyX-Code [command] \layout LyX-Code command = havefun \layout LyX-Code exec = exec fun.cfg \layout LyX-Code desc = Load up some crazy settings/commands levels = 4 5 \layout Standard This would allow all level 4 and 5 admins to run the command !havefun which would be similar to running the command \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset exec fun.cfg \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset on the server console. \layout Subsubsection Admin Flags \layout Standard Both the [level] and [admin] blocks have the flags parameter which is a string of characters that grant access rights. The following table shows the flags for built-in COMMANDS: \layout Standard \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \layout Standard FLAG \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard COMMAND \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard a \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !admintest \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard y \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !allready \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard b \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !ban/!unban/!adjustban \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard c \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !cancelvote \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard h \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !help \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard k \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !kick \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard D \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !listadmins \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard i \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !listplayers \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard K \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !lock/!unlock \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard m \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !mute/!unmute \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard e \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !namelog \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard n \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !nextmap \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard V \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !passvote \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard p \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !putteam \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard G \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !readconfig \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard N \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !rename \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard r \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !restart \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard s \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !setlevel \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard B \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !showbans \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard P \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !spec999 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard C \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard !time \end_inset \end_inset \layout Standard The following table shows the flags for RIGHTS: \layout Standard \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \layout Standard FLAG \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard RIGHT \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 1 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard cannot be vote kicked \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 3 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard never loses credits/evo for switching teams \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 4 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard can see team chat as a spectator \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 5 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard can switch teams regardless of balance settings \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 6 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard does not need to specify a reason for kick/ban \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 7 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard can call a vote at any time regardless of g_voteLimit \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 8 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard does not need to specify a duration for a ban \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 9 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard can run commands in team chat \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard 0 \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard inactivity settings do not apply \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard ! \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard no ! commands can be used on a player with this flag \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard @ \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard does not show up as an admin in the output of !listplayers \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard $ \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard sees additional player info in the output of !listplayers \end_inset \end_inset \layout Standard In addition, there are 3 special case characters in the flags string: \layout Standard \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \layout Standard FLAG \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard MEANING \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard * \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard signifies ALL commands and rights any flags following this character are negated. The only exceptions are the ! and @ flags which must be given to individual admins explicitly. \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard + \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard any flags following this flag will be ADDED. this is implied at the beginning of any flags string so it's pretty much worthless. \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard - \end_inset \begin_inset Text \layout Standard any flags following this flag will be REMOVED. this is particularly useful if you wish to remove a right from an admin that has been given through that admin's [level] definition. \end_inset \end_inset \layout Section \pagebreak_top Credits \layout Standard Tim \emph on 'Timbo' \emph default Angus -- Programming and Direction \layout Standard Nick \emph on 'jex' \emph default Jansens -- Mapping, texturing and 2D artwork \layout Standard Robin \emph on 'OverFlow' \emph default Marshall -- Modelling, animation and mapping \layout Standard Jan \emph on 'Stannum' \emph default van der Weg -- Texturing and mapping \layout Standard Mike \emph on 'Veda' \emph default Mcinnerney -- Modelling, animation and texturing \layout Standard Gordon \emph on 'Godmil' \emph default Miller -- Mapping \layout Standard 'Who-[Soup]' -- Mapping \layout Standard Tristan \emph on 'jhrx' \emph default Blease -- Mapping \layout Standard Paul \emph on 'MoP' \emph default Greveson -- Modelling and texturing \layout Standard Chris \emph on 'Dolby' \emph default McCarthy -- Sound \layout Subsection* Special thanks \layout Standard Asa \emph on 'Norfenstein' \emph default Kravets -- Manual content, QA, design and balance suggestions \layout Standard \emph on 'Crylar' \emph default -- Concept art \layout Standard Yves \emph on 'evillair' \emph default Allaire -- Textures \layout Standard Randy \emph on 'ydnar' \emph default Reddig -- Textures \layout Standard Richard \emph on 'R1CH' \emph default Stanway -- Server hosting \layout Standard St�phane \emph on 'MEGASTeP' \emph default Peter -- Early test server hosting \layout Standard Sourceforge and TARDIS -- Web hosting \layout Standard icculus.org -- Subversion hosting \layout Standard The contributors to icculus.org/quake3/ -- Various \layout Standard Arsonide, Bajoran, Bt, Chamooze, Crylar, Cybernetsam, dzjepp, ectox, Edo, evil poop, Excalibur, FroggyQuim, Idle Wild, juice, Kai, kingping, Lava Croft, MajorPain, MiDiaN, Molog, Mutemode, Norfenstein, Orc, R1CH, Ratti, Ravyn, Salteh, Sandy, SharkDog, slux, Suddien, Supa, Survivor, Swie, sysrq, TerrorEast, Tyler, Vitae, Woo -- Beta testers \layout Subsection* Also thanks \layout Standard babyomen, Carc, djbob, Grim, Grytviken, Gumby, heimdall, Hellbringer, Hentai, Mighty_Pea, Psylo, Reaper-1, RR2D02, Saig, Smack, T-bone, The GtkRadiant people, The inhabitants of Quake3World, ThePyro, TTimo, ValouR \layout Standard \align center \noun on Tremulous is copyright darklegion development 2005-2006 \the_end
