-=Reinforced Search and Destroy=-
A modification to Search and Destroy
Version 1.3
By Boco


-=1.3: Changes since 1.2=-
ADDED: If you are dead in a Limited Lives game, your status icon is a skull and crossbones.
ADDED: If you have no more lives left, the game gives you a warning.
ADDED: Instead of Lives: #, it shows a dog tag and the number of lives you have.
ADDED: b_spawn_protect_noShoot cvar added. If set to 1, firing your gun will take away your spawn protection. (don't you just love long cvars? :P)
CHANGED: b_spawn_invulnerable changed to b_spawn_protect (got tired of writing invulnerable).
FIXED: Killcam now plays through the eyes of the killer, not your eyes.
FIXED: If your entire team is dead on a Limited Lives game, the round ends.


-=1.2: Changes since 1.1a=-
ADDED: Cvars to modify points gained from arming and disarming a bomb and blowing up an objective.
ADDED: b_corpse_timeout to specify how long until corpses dissapear. Set to 0 to make them never dissapear. Corpses sink when dissapearing.
ADDED: New special effect. If you are killed with a headshot or by explosives, you lose your helmet.
ADDED: Cvars to change clip count of pistols and number of grenades.
ADDED: Limited lives feature. b_player_lives sets the limit. 0 = infinite lives.
ADDED: TK penalty. Once the player hits b_player_tklimit TK's, penalties will be applied. See explanation for more details.
ADDED: If b_rsd_bomb_shootStop is set to 1, firing while arming/disarming cancels the action.
CHANGED: Removed menus. Menus had to be loaded from menus.txt, which would cause sv_pure errors. When IW fixes, I will add them again.
CHANGED: Removed the localized string file. [MC]Hammer showed me a way to bypass it. Lets all give Hammer a cookie now. :P
CHANGED: Added Team Spectate. I used Clan iO's (http://www.roxor.nl/clanio/index.htm) forceSpectator function, so here is their plug.
CHANGED: Default points gained when arming, disarming, or destroying an objective. Defaults to 2/2/4.
FIXED: Banner startup code moved. Now, banners that call when player starts is on a map basis, not round basis.
FIXED: Moved the bomb explosion damage origin up 1 foot so it will kill you like it is supposed to. :x Watch out now.
FIXED: If the bomb explodes while you are disarming it, the progress meter will be destroyed.


-=1.1a: Changes since 1.1=-
FIXED: *Old* bug. Objects now correctly run their exploder scripts when bomb explodes.


-=1.1: Changes since 1.0=-
ADDED: Tell client what b_player_health is set to.
ADDED: Tell client if server is using banners.
ADDED: If maps include RSD entities, it uses those instead of the SD entities.
ADDED: To use banners, you must set b_banners to 1 (which is the default).
CHANGED: Team Balance text changed from white to red.
CHANGED: Team Balance notice that you changed teams is now printed in the center of the screen.
FIXED: If b_player_health was set over 1000, it would set to 100 instead of 1000.
FIXED: b_teambalance_grace is now in minutes, not seconds. :x
FIXED: Fixed bugs that occured when I switched the teambalance functions to minutes.


-=Introduction=-
I created RSD because I felt the current gameplay modes in CoD were lacking.
SD and RE were only one life to live and usually evolved into a deathmatch.
I decided to create RSD in the image of RtCW, with timed reinforcements and
bomb planting/disarming. I would like to thank all the people who gave me
feedback and helped me test my mod. <3


-=How to Win=-
* Attackers
Blow up the objectives with the bomb.
* Defenders
Prevent the attackers from blowing the objectives in the time limit.


-=What is Different from SD=-
* No longer OLTL - when you die, you get placed in the reinforcement
queue. You then spawn with the rest of your team.
* If the defending team disarms the bomb, they do not win. For the
attacking team to win, they must blow up the objectives. For the
defending team to win, they must hold back the attacking team for the
duration of the round.
* Game time limit and score limit are no longer used. Instead, a game
is broken into rounds and each round has a time limit.
* If the game is in Normal Mode, you can plant/disarm at both objectives
at once.
* When you die, you don't go into spectator mode. Your view stays where
you died. This is an unintentional but welcomed "feature". :)
* Can join the game at any time. Server can specify optional late-join
and switch-team penalties to be applied to the player (penalties take
the form of increased respawn time).
* Spawn Protect gives you temporary invulnerability at spawn to fight
spawn camping. The other team sees a white cross above your head
which signifies you cannot be hurt. The player will see a countdown
clock above his ammo count.
* Team Balance balances out uneven teams by shifting players with the
lowest score to the team with the lowest number of players.
* Player does not start out with maxed out ammo. Instead, players are
defaulted to two extra clips of ammo. Additionally, the server can
set individual weapon ammo limits.
* Server banners let server admins periodically remind users of the rules
or their clan website or any other thing they want.
* The killcam can be disabled.
* New Friendly Fire mode.
* Team Killing penalty.


-=Extended Information=-
* Reinforcement Queue
When you die, you get placed in the reinforcement queue and a timer
will appear in the top-left corner of the screen. When the timer
hits zero, you will respawn with the rest of your team. If the
killcam is running when the timer hits zero, the game will wait until
the killcam finishes, or until you press the USE key to respawn you.
* Normal Mode vs. Single Bomb Mode
If the game is in Single Bomb Mode, you can only plant one bomb at a
time and the attackers only need to destroy one objective to win,
much like normal SD.
* Spawn Protect
If Spawn Protect is enabled, you will spawn with limited
unvulnerability. The other team will see you with a white cross
above your head so they know you cannot be harmed. Meanwhile, you
will see a countdown timer above your ammo which indicates how much
longer you have left before you can be harmed again.
* Team Balance
Team Balance solves the problem of joining a server and finding it
10 on 4. When the teams get unevened, the server goes into a grace
period where players are given the opportunity to even the teams on
their own. After that, the server gives a warning about unbalanced
teams. Halfway till the server force balances, it gives a final
warning. Then it will balance the teams. It moves the lowest scoring
players from the team with the most players to the team with the least
players.
* Ammo Limitation
The server can limit the amount of ammo you start out with. It can
also set the amount of ammo for individual weapons. Ammo is in the
form of extra clips. For example, 2 extra clips for a Thompson is
60 bullets.
* Late-Join and Switch-Team Penalties
The server can specify a penalty in seconds to be added to a player's
respawn time if they join the game late or switch teams.
* About Grace Periods
The round grace period allows you to switch teams and weapons without
any hinderance at the beginning of the round, or switching weapons after
being forced to the other team by Team Balance. The Team Balance grace
period is the time before the first warning.
* Friendly Fire Mode 3
If scr_friendlyfire is set to 3, you and your attacker both get half
damage. This allows you to have a friendly fire penalty while still
punishing those who walk in your line of fire.
* Server Banners
Server Banners is a feature where the server admin can have the server
periodically tell the clients important information. It could be a
reminder to follow the rules, a website plug, or anything else the admin
wants to convey to the users. A seperate pk3 is included with a basic
banner and information on how to create your own. Remember to set
b_banners to 1 if you want to use banners. Also remember to rename the
banner pk3 file to something unique in case you allow client downloads.
* Team Killing Penalties
If a player TK's a number of players equal to b_player_tklimit, then the
player receives penalties set forth by the b_player_tkmode cvar. If it
is set to 0, all damage will be reflected back to the player. If set to
1, time equal to b_player_tk_spawnPenalty is permanently added to their
respawn timer.
* Limited Lives
Setting b_player_lives to a value other than 0 will set a life limit.
When you die, you lose a life. If you hit 0 lives, you cannot respawn.
Also, if Limited Lives is in effect, you cannot join a game already in
progress. You must wait until the round ends. If IW releases a way to
get the player GUID, I will change this feature to give the player lives
according to how long the match has lasted. Currently, there is no way
to check if a player reconnects to bypass the limit, so I am forced to
prevent late-joins. The cvar scr_rsd_graceperiod controls how long into
the match people are allowed to join before the match is cut off from them.
So, if your server changes maps, set it to something like 30 seconds to
let slow loaders re-join the game.
