I have decided to hold off on a release until version 2.00, there are a couple things going on here that relate to this decision. I wanted to address this before the next release.

Code clean-up, The code base is a bit of a mess at the moment, I was not consistent in how I address variables, the structure of the code doesn’t really lend it self to easy edits and difficulty in tracking exactly where a particular feature showed up especially in the scoring routines.

I also have been asked recently about a few different scoring options people want to try that really are not possible as the code-base sits right now.

Lastly, I wanted to add features in for the backend piece, allowing teams to register on sites and reserve servers and select their sides and so forth. Since I did not want to run the backend, this feature will likely be based of a fairly portable service that can be quickly adapted to other features.

Also, I did want to add stat tracking to the mix internally as well as maintain the lengthy log the mod currently uses. Again, allowing live-stats to a website relatively quickly. We’ll see how this aspect goes.

I also always wanted to look at Berni’s map detection routine a bit more and see if there were better ways to detect. Right now it mainly uses the map’s file name, a few maps out there don’t use the proper prefixes and so forth, so I am toying with the idea of expanding this to use maps internal entities that TF2 is using to determine the rules at play. Not sure if this is realistic, but we will see.

Branding is something I have been wanting to do for a while, as opposed to everything saying [MatchMod] I wanted to give the ability to modify that particular string.

Lastly, I have been asked to port the mod to other games, not certain if I am going to do those aspects, but want the code base to have the option.

That’s the current status. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
