There are many new features in this mod, including (many are server specific):
*_MANY_ bug fixes
-upon compile, 8 warning total instead of the 65-ish it came with :)
-some more listed at quake info pool, some i found
*fixed to fit mod
-no falling damage, etc
-more "bounce" if you're shot at the feet
-adjusted no damage height (you could take damage if you jumped..)
-more starting health/armor (customizable in localinfo) and ammo
-localinfo startarmor/startammo/starthealth
-items converted to rocket ammo (if you play any dm maps)
-no shooting upon _immediate_ respawn (rocket could go ANYWHERE)
-can rocketjump off walls without killing yourself! instead of damage
scaled by height, it uses the DM method of damage (approx 40-50 damage)
-backpack times/values adjusted, you cant pick up a backpack with > 100 rockets
(if you could, you would lose ammo :O)
*QC optimized for speed
-more efficient playerprethink/playerpostthink
-smooth gameplay
-more efficient impulse command checking
*no damage bug fix
-if you shot a player directly in the feet while
they were in the air, they wouldn't take damage
*auto config loading
-midair.cfg (in either id1,qw,fortress directories)
-for easy cfg loading if you use different binds for different mods
*Map cycle
-map configs in qwmcycle/MAP.cfg (same as TF for ease of use)
*Client Reporting
-states what client a player is using (player [ezquake 1754] joined!)
-supports fuhquake, ezquake, mqwcl, zquake, amfquake, quakeforge
-if none of those clients, reports unknown client
-unknown clients are usually fine, but it could mean they are *more likely* to be
cheating, but cheating is possible with any client. The mod will kick most aa clients
anyway.
