[drupal=99]Official Competition Mod Beta This Week[/drupal]
With 1.4 out of the way, we are currently working on the next game update, and breaking with all known naming and moral conventions, we were thinking of code-naming it “1.5”. This is going to be a smaller release and fix the remaining issues that cropped up in 1.4, such as ranks not being displayed correctly and Personal Bests being tracked on a per-campaign basis rather than globally (those two issues are actually related).
More immediately - and perhaps a bit more exciting - we are also wrapping up work on our competition mod. If you’re not familiar with it, the main purpose of the mod is allow tournament organizers to easily implement and enforce specific rulesets. To that extent, we’ve stuffed quite a lot of cvar customization options in there and creating a new ruleset is as simple as putting the values you’d like to adjust in a config file on your server.
