Description:

If playing in Practice mode, then voting to normal players respawn with all weapons.
This will revert their inventory back to "normal".

I tried to mimic CRMod++ as best as I could. So keeping your weapons when you switch from practice to normal is intentional.

Since the two are entirely different games, I think it's more sensible for the weapons, ammo and armor to be reset when switching from practice to normal mode.

Honestly I think it was an oversight on JP.G's part, as going from practice to match mode forces everyone into observer mode (thus resetting the weapons). I was just thinking of the poor saps that join the game at the time of intermission that dont get the full inventory on map change. :shock:

In normal mode, all players retain their weapons, ammo, armor, health, and rune during intermission. In fact, this happens every time you join a FFA (normal) game regardless of when you enter it. If you connect to any FFA server, it's possible someone might have full ammo, armor, maybe even a powerful rune, yet you wouldn't consider yourself a poor sap when you connect with standard parms, would you? It's just the nature of a FFA game.

By the way, the server has the ability to reset parms after level change. Would you like me to configure the server on 26002 this way?

No, I wasn't aware that all deathmatch 1, ffa servers retained their weapons after map change. I thought at was a single player left-over effect, (thought it might be). IMHO, when a new game starts, reset the weapons. The "Ranking" screen shows winner, game over. New map, new game. If it is already a setting then dont worry. Each sys0p can alter it to his/her preference. :D

Maybe I should make it a vote option?

They don't. At SINGED you lose your weapons and rune when the map changes.

I like that on shmack servers players retain items on map change (It's nice too that singed isn't exactly like shmack with items reseting on map change and non-rotating armor).

But I don't see why it's a good idea to retain a full compliment of weapons when switching from practice to normal mode though. The whole reason to switch is so you don't have them. Whenever I've played a game on 26002 and we wanted to set the mode to normal, it's always a problem. It goes like this:
"Lets play in normal mode"
"Hey we still have all our weapons/ammo"
"Ok type kill in console"
"Oops I picked up my full pack I dropped when I suicided"
"Dammit, ok, vote to restart level..."

Also, how come 26002 doesn't default back to dm6 anymore? Was that changed?

I'll look into it right now.

The server is setup to always play the same level over and over, unless someone changes it. I spawn it on DM6, but it doesn't reset automatically to it.

What Yellow says ^^^^ (all of it) heheh

Every time anyone 1 on 1's at 26002 with practice mode OFF, it takes like 3 attempts to get stuff right. Kill self, oops other guy still has stuff, he kills self. Oops I grabbed his backpack.

Much easier if switching practice mode off took care of removing inventory and setting health and armor.

*cough* need match mode so we can get some tournament action going */cough*

I just added match mode. Use vote-match instead of vote-normal.
