---------------------------------
QBall Overview
---------------------------------
QBall is a server-side teamplay modification for ST:V HM v1.20.  Two teams
battle for possession of the single QBall.  Teams score by launching the QBall
into goals.  Clients must bind +use to launch the QBall.  Since QBall is coded
in virtual machine bytecode, it is compatible with any platform that runs ST:V
HM v1.20.

---------------------------------
How To Run A QBall Server
---------------------------------
Run ST:V HM with the following command-line parameters:
+set fs_game qball +set dedicated 2 +exec qball.cfg

---------------------------------
How To Configure Additional Maps
---------------------------------
Every map must have a specific set of coordinates for the QBall to initially
spawn.  Conventionally this burden belongs to the map designer.  Since QBall
supports all CTF maps, these coordinates must be explicitly configured with the
following cvars:
g_qballOriginX #
g_qballOriginY #
g_qballOriginZ #

---------------------------------
How To Design Maps For QBall
---------------------------------
QBall goals will automatically replace all CTF flags.  The goals occupy a
volume of 9 cubic map units.  In the map documentation, specify QBall origin
coordinates.  The QBall itself also occupies a volume of 9 cubic map units.
