[Overview]
When I started this mod, it was just going to stop medic team killing and let me get 
familiar with the source.  As it ended up, it's got bug fixes, some new voting features, 
options to fix the more annoying sides of specialties, and a language filter.  Some of 
the stuff, like the team kill config options are more than most people would need, so if all
you want is the bug fixes and medic teamkill prevention, grab the Lite version.  It's a 
server side only mod, so you don't need to download anything to play on a server running it.

[Note to Sites]
Any site that hosts this, thanks.  Also, if you include my email address, keep it exactly 
as it is here.  I don't want every spambot that goes around to get ahold of it, and if 
somebody can't figure out what it is from that, I probably don't need to hear from them. ;p

[Bug Fixes]
[1.2.2]
-Borg can't fly around without using their teleport
-Spectators following a player no longer get unlimited votes if the player never votes

[1.2.1]
-Tallying of the number of votes needed for a vote to pass includes spectators
-Can't vote again after respawn or team change

-Can't change from borg team with /team followed by almost anything starting with s 
 (aka /team spec)
-Borg always get the transporter, not the detpack
-Portable forcefields always keep the same team they started with, so people aren't trapped 
 in their own base
-Warmup is enabled by default (after the warmup expires, invisible players usually reappear)

[Setup]
Extract ServerUpFull-122rc2.zip to your Elite Force folder (NOT BaseEF).  The default EF 
folder is c:\program files\Raven\Star Trek Voyager Elite Force.  Run the batch file 
"ServerUp-full.bat" in the new ServerUpFull directory to start the mod.

[CVar Configuration]
Enter "/exec filename" in the console to run a config file (no .cfg extension).
su-default.cfg contains all the default settings, with explanations for all the cvars.
su-off makes it function like the Lite version of this mod, and su-specs turns on fixes 
for some specialties problems.

[Server Commands]
These can only be run by entering them in the server's console, through rcon, or through 
a vote.
[1.2.2]
For the cv* commands, substitute - for the cvar name to use the same cvar as last time.
-cvclr <cvarname>
 Clears the cvar, like setting the cvar to ""
-cvapp <cvarname> <text>
 Appends text to the cvar if it is not already there.  Text can include spaces.
-cvrem <cvarname> <text>
 Removes the first instance of text from a space-separated list in the cvar, fixing spacing.
-eventeams
 Fixes teams so they are even, and if there is an extra it is given to the losing team.
[1.2.1]
-resettk <name or clientnum>
 Resets the client's teamkills, second chance, and ability to take friendly fire.  
 Specialties only.
-timeout <name or clientnum> [length] [class]
 Length is in seconds, if not specified ss_timeOutLength is used.  Class is either a 
 specialties player class, "blue", "red", or "spectator, and ss_timeOutClass is used if 
 not specified.  Works without specialties if class is a team.

[Client Commands]
-playerlist
 Lists all connected players with their client number to make it easier to call a 
 vote to kick people with strange names.

[Callvote Password]
Anyone with a correct password is allowed to vote even if g_allowVote is off.  The client
should set his password with "/setu callvotepass mypass" in the console.  If this is not 
done before connecting or in the autoexec.cfg file, another userinfo cvar (like "name") 
will need to be changed to make the password available to the server.  Case sensitive.

[Listen Servers]
If you are running a listen server (playing and hosting on the same instance of the game), 
the server will not appear like a normal server in the ingame browser.  Also, you cannot 
run a pure listen server.

[Debug Commands and Cvars]
These were used for testing, no reason to take them out.
-forcedet <name or clientnum>
 If the client has a detpack, it does exactly the same thing as them pushing the use item
 key.  Server command, cheats must be enabled.
-bot_speedMult - The top speed for bots is this multiplied by g_speed.
-bot_doFriendlyFire
-bot_alwaysHypoAlt - Bots will always use the hypo if they have it, no changes to attack 
  code, so don't expect them to do much once it's out
-bot_brainDead
