                                                 __                    __
                                                (__| THE MODIFICATION |__)
                                                
     This modification begins where it ended back on EF 1.10: A
     Last-Man-Standing game with a fast gameplay, higly modifiable
     and with a match mode, where the addition of the points over a
     given number of rounds declares the winner. Now for EF 1.20!
     
     Last-Man-Standing means: Every player has one life. The goal is
     to survive all the other players.
     
     Gladiator Arena brings like the name says the Gladiator flavour
     to this type of game: Every player gets one weapon, by which
     he can defeat himself - or be hunted, because other players 
     want that weapon to have more chances to survive! B-)
     
     The gameplay is increased, the weapons act faster - but this
     don't mean you gonna be fragged easier: The firepower is 
     connected to the amount of players active in the arena. The
     more are playing the less power has a shot. So always have a look
     on how many players are alive and how good your health is...
     
     And - like in a real Gladiator Arena - the bodies of fragged
     players don't disappear... ;)
     
     The new version for EF 1.20 brings now teamplay to Gladiator Arena
     and the additional weapons of the borg.
     
     So with the borg glove for example you can configure a Gladiator
     Game where the players have to get very close to each other to
     get a frag...
     
     Gladiator Arena does not support Assimilation, Action-Hero and
     Specialties. CTF and 1v1 is also not supported.
     
     Instagib is supported, no XP needed to join the server.
     
     Gladiator Arena can handle all maps of the Single Player mode!
     NPC spawn points are converted to regular DM spawn points, all
     doors are unlocked and forcefields are off. If a spawn point 
     did cut off a player from the rest, a emergency transporter is
     available to escape the dead map spot.
     
     Gladiator Arena is a complete server side modification. You can
     run a server and players can connect without having this mod
     installed!

                                                        __             __
                                                       (__| THE RULES |__)

     1. Each Player has one live. If you loose it, you're out of the
        game (but only for one round). 
        
        After loosing your live you stay in as a spectator for the rest
        of the round.
        
     2. * FFA-Rules for scores:
     
        The winner is the one, who survived all other players. 
        
        The players are placed in the scoreboard by their time they 
        survived in one round.
        
        In match mode after a configurated amount of rounds a second 
        scoreboard with ranking by won rounds come up. The three best
        players of the match are shown on the podium. The Scoreboard
        shows the amount of won rounds of a player.
        
        * TDM-Rules for scores: 
        
        The team has lost, that has no players left in the arena. By
        that the opponent team gets the point. The players are ranked
        by their frags they did.
        
        In match mode, the team with the most won rounds is the 
        winner. The score of each player of each round is added to
        a total. The player with the highest score over all rounds 
        is the MVP of the winning team.
        
        General match score rules:
        
        There are no tied matches. The last round of a match will
        be repeated until a winner (player/team) can be named.
        
     3. You got one weapon by random from the beginning of the game. 
        This will stay your weapon until you pick up a dropped weapon
        of another player who lost his live. Then you can switch.
        
        There are no weapons and no ammo spawned in a level!
        
        Your ammo is unlimited.
        
        What weapons are available and how they are given away can
        be configured. Look into the variables section of this readme
        to learn how this works.
     
     4. It is not allowed to join a running round. Rejoining from the 
        spectators is not possible and connecting players while a running
        round will first join the spectators.

                                                   (__| CHANGED STUFF |__)

     WEAPONS:
     
     * The damage done by weaponfire belongs to how  many players are in 
       the game. The more players are in active the less damage weaponfire
       does.
       
     * The pauses between each shot of a weapon are reduced.
     
     * The borg weapons are available as regular weapons.
       
     * Phasers are dropable.
     
     * Tripwires of Grenade Launcher can be activated, they are on by 
       default. In this mode a launched mine has a sensor wire that
       let explode the mine on contact. Only 10 mines are active at 
       one time for one player.
       
     * Arc Welder has less power, its alternative shot moves slower.
     
     * Main shots of Borg and Stasis-Weapon moves faster.
     

     GAMEPLAY:
     
     * Before a game starts a warmup is done, which explains in a very 
       short way the rules of this modification. This warmup will come up 
       only when a new player had joined the game.
       
       If no new player had joined, there will be only a short warmup 
       every round to ensure that all players are reconnected when the game
       begins.
       
     * While warmup players can fly around the map and have no weapon.

     * A player after loosing his live will immidiatly join the spectators.
       
     * No body will be "beamed off". A dead body stays in the level until 
       it is restarted.
      
     * The holointro is off.
     
     * There is no fraglimit.  
     
     * A reached timelimit will restart a round.
       
     * With each frag a message tells how many players in general (FFA) or
       of the fragged players team (TDM) are left.
     
     * Computer messages for alive players on a frag.
     
     * Computer message on setting a Detpack and destroying it.
     
     * Music on last two alive players who fight for the victory.
     
     * Holdables (like Detpack or Transporter) are dropped of a fragged
       player.
       
     * The speed (g_speed) of the player movement cannot be set to a
       lower value than 300. By this players should move fast enough to
       escape from shots.
       
       
     SERVER-HANDLING:
     
     * Full support for all single player maps!
       - Escape transporter are available for players spawned in an area of a
         SP map, that has cut the player off the rest. The transporter is 
         available by the console command "escape". Only every minute this
         transporter is available.
       - Door sounds are taken ambiente specific to the map type (Voyager,
         Borg, Forge etc.)
       - Health items are spawned.

     * CTF server run as TDM server. 1v1 server run as FFA server.
     
     * New server variables to configure Gladiator Arena
     
     * New server commands for match controlling: "match_restart", "nextmatch"
       and "matchrounds" - available for voting.
     
     * New server commands for weapon controlling: "weapons", "ammomode", 
       "weapongiveaway", "firemode", "instagib"
     
     * Optional simple vote for public servers: Players can only vote for a
       new map.
         
     * Callvote for match_restart, nextmatch, matchrounds, g_speed.
     
     * If a new map is loaded by vote, the current running round (game) of 
       a match is restarted. 
       
     * Empty names are not allowed (like "^2  "), players are named "John Doe"
       then.
     
     * Players with a ping of 999 get kicked after one minute.
     
     
     BOTS:
     
     * Bot-AI:
       - bugfix: Weapon specific botproperties reactivated
       - Bot AI more aggressive
       - DM Bot AI for assimilator and borg weapon

    These issues here will be corrected in the following releases of
    Gladiator Arena:                           
                                                      
    * Connecting clients join a round after a map restart with a ping
      of 999, even the connect isn't finished (Bug of EF 1.20).
       
    * A match can end with tied players if the match winner leaves the
      server or goes to spectators while the scoreboard of the last 
      round.
       
    * There is no first person spectator in "Elimination" mode (caused by
      "Elimination" code of EF 1.20).
    
    * Bots don't move proberly with jetpacks while warmup sequence.
    
    * Sometimes the winning Gladiator gets killed by a detpack, but still
      is called "survivor".
       
    * In One Player mode the after match menu don't appear, where you
      can decide to replay the current map or switch to another one.
       
    * The rewards of the last round are repeated on the matchs scoreboard.
       
    * Computer messages can overlay each other.
    
    * Tied message if teams have same scores, even one team survived the
      other.
      
    * Specialities and 1v1 are not supported.

                                                             __        __
                                                            (__| TIPS |__)
                               
    1. To prevent the ugly EF 1.20 item pickup sound effect, where you
       hear the pickup sound many times instead only one time, set the
       item pickup prediction off. You can do this by setting a variable
       via the console:
       
       /set cg_predictitems 0
       
       Now you will only hear the pickup sound always once a time, as it
       is supposed to be.
       
       This is a bug of the client, where the pickup sound is restarted
       every frame (nearly 20 frames per second) as long as the item isn't
       removed (stated "picked up by a player") by the server system. If
       a player has a ping of 200, the pickup sound is restarted for
       400 ms until the picked up item dissappears from the map. This is
       an ugly bug of the item pickup prediction system of EF 1.20, which
       cannot corrected server side only.

            This variable sets the amount of rounds that one 
            tournament match will include. If the value is more 
            than 0 (zero), three things will change:
            
            1. In  Warmup  you  will  see  instead  of 
               "let the game begin" the message:
               "let game x of y begin"  where x is the actual 
               round and y the total amount of rounds to play 
               before ranking is done.
               
            2. After the last round a second scoreboard comes up
               where all players are ranked by their won rounds.

     * First of all: You need the installed Patch 1.20 or the Expansion
       Pack. This won't work with EF 0.28, EF 1.10!

     * Extract the ZIP-File contents with full pathnames into your 
       Elite-Force basefolder - like "C:\STVOY".
       
       After that you should have a folder named "gladiator" and a batch
       file named RUNGLAD.BAT (and this readme).
       
     * There a three ways to run this modification:
       
       1. Start Elite Force Holomatch as usual and activate the modifi-
          cation in the MOD list.
          
          The entry is called "Gladiator Arena vn.n.n", where "n.n.n"
          is the current version of this modification.
          
          Please be aware: Since this is a complete server side modification,
          you will only recordnize Gladiator Arena if you start a game, the
          menus won't change after activating Gladiator Arena!

       2. Run Elite Force Holomatch from the command prompt by typing:
          
          "stvoyhm +set fs_game gladiator"
          
       3. ...or just by the installed batch file:
       
          "runglad"

        * Bug Fixes:
          - No map restart on only one or no active players while
            warmup. This has caused a internal loop after a map load
            sometimes so the server was out.

            Detpack or the Transporter)
          - Players with empty names (like "^3  ") are renamed to
            "John Doe"
          
        * Changed features:
          - Weapon power of Arc Welder (Dreadnought) reduced by 40%
          - Arc Welder alternative shot moves slower

          - Server command "matchrounds" without any parameter gives
            an information about a running match
          - g_speed minimum value is 300
          
        * Fixed bugs:
          - Counting of alive players didn't worked properly if two
            or more players died in a timeframe of one second.
        
        * New CVars

       a Gladiator Arena server under EF 1.10 and which had the idea
