Switching to dedicated camera follower with no possible players to
follow would spawn at the intermission point and display "connection
interrupted" HUD message. Pmove() was not run for the client so
ps.commandTime was too far behind. I made it so that dedicated camera
followers and scoreboard run Pmove() but cannot move (PM_FREEZE).
When all players possible to follow leave, the dedicated camera follower
would continue to display the old player state of the player they were
following (along with "connection interrupted" HUD message). Unlike the
regular case of a spectator following a specific player, dedicated
camera followers did not reset their player state to the intermission
point after the followed player was no longer valid.
Now a client can be set as 'team follow1' to automatically switch
between displaying the intermission point and following a player when
possible.
A negative timelimit value or a value that would overflow the
multiplication by 60000 caused an endless map change/reload.
Based on patch and description by @vloup.
If a lightning bolt killed a player or the first shotgun pellet that
hit a player killed them, the shot was not counted as accurate.
Check if shot player is alive for hit accuracy before dealing damage.
Only use the crusher for killing the bot's enemy. This doesn't
affect 1v1 very much but prevents the whole team of bots in CTF
from suddenly shooting at the crusher button. Entering the crusher
bounds was basically instant death.
Make bots activate crusher on q3tourney6_ctf and mpq3tourney6.
Check if player is inside the crush bounds instead of below the
crusher. There is a jumppad the goes under it in mpq3tourney6.
Make callTeamVote check for all command separators like in callVote.
It's not exploitable as the only vote option (leader) always uses an
integer argument.
Also the ioquake3 engine remove command separators from client game
commands in Cmd_Args_Sanitize().
The Team Arena code for giving defense bonus for fragging player
who recently damaged a skull carrier unintentionally applied to
the flag carrier.
The skull carrier case would of been handled by the flag carrier
block above it. However, Harvest mode doesn't call
Team_CheckHurtCarrier() so the skull carrier defense bonus does
not work.
This restores the pre-Team Arena behavior of not giving defense
score bonus to flag carrier.
Fix copy-paste error in the original Quake 3 code. The wrong values
are used for v1 and v2. v2 was previously set to distance of attacker
to flag base; which should be handled already.
The game now gives defense score bonus to player when they frag an
enemy near their team's flag carrier while the player is more than
1000 units from the flag carrier.
This may also fix not giving defense bonus when near carrier due to
checking if carrier and enemy (instead of attacker) are in PVS.

Don't add the same bot to multiple teams until there are as many
bots on the server as there are bot types.
Previously each team would have unique bots until all bot types
were added to the team but other teams may have the same bot. Now
there will not be any duplicate bots until there are more bots than
bot types.
Now Quake 3 (32 bot types) in 16 vs 16 bot CTF will not contain
duplicate bot types. (You have to increase memory in code/game/
g_mem.c in order to add 32 bots though.)
I had to change G_AddRandomBot() to use 'addbot random' or else the
same bot could be added to red and blue teams. The bot was selected
and stored in console command buffer so game doesn't know not to
select the bot again.
If there are two bot infos in scripts/bots.txt then each team can
only add two random bots via bot_minplayers or addbot random.
Pick random bot info from least used bot infos instead of only ones
that are used by zero players. That way a random bot can always be
added to the game.
This rarely affected Quake 3 since there is 32 bot infos. It could
easily affect new games though.
Team Arena's Overload gametype has red and blue team Obelisk base
objects. It uses separate entities for visual and damage. Only the
damageable entity was dropped to floor. Leaving model floating off
the ground.
Team Arena's Harvester base has the same problem. Model entity
floats in air but trigger entity drops to floor.
Drop all Team Arena team base models to floor. Fixes CTF, 1Flag,
Overload, and Harvester base models.
There are various issues caused by not knowing the initial team for
the local client and bots when they connect. This is can be reproduced
by starting a team game from the main menu.
When g_teamAutoJoin is enabled, bots and local client join a random
team at connect and then execute their team command a few frames
later. This may result in the player being killed if they specify a
different team. In Team Arena's Harvester mode this causes harvester
skulls to be spawned at the beginning of the game.
When g_teamForceBalance is enabled, the local client and bots may not
be able to join their desired team. This may result in them being
spectators. If g_teamAutoJoin is also enabled they may be left on
the opposite (red/blue) team they were meant to join.
There is a hack for including bot's team in their player info string
(used by cgame for which team skin to use) before the bot joins
their desired team. Bots aren't guaranteed to join their desired team
(as may happen when both g_teamAutoJoin and g_teamForceBalance are
enabled) so clients may see them as being on the wrong team!
----
Add teampref userinfo option for team preference. If teampref is set
it will be used for attempting to join the team immediately at connect.
Bots now join team at connect using teampref userinfo. So remove
the hack for setting bot's team in player info string before the bot
joins the team.
To avoid the client sending teampref userinfo to all network servers,
the local client uses a g_localTeamPref cvar. The g_localTeamPref
cvar is cleared after it's used so it doesn't get used when starting
another server later. Another reason not to use a teampref userinfo
cvar is there isn't a reliable way to clear it in CGame/UI which are
likely loaded from baseq3 pk3.
Make it so g_teamAutoJoin doesn't affect clients who specify
teampref. If teampref is invalid, the client will join a random team
like g_teamAutoJoin.
Don't apply g_teamForceBalance to the local client or bots. Otherwise
they may be left as spectators when starting team game from menu.
The start server menus use team command and g_localTeamPref to set
the human player's team. This way it's compatible with vanilla Q3
game VMs and the new setting team at connect feature.
Bots did not notice player disconnected, so they kept attacking
the last known position.
Checking if entity is valid in BotEntityVisible might fix other
similar issues too.
- Actually use the second 'force' pass in G_Spawn when out of
available slots.
- Make G_EntitiesFree return qtrue if we can open a new slot.
(Only used when spawning Harvester skulls.)
Fixes not spawning Harvester skulls when there are no 'open freed
slots', but we have other slots available to open.
The Team Arena menu uses red team for single player but q3_ui
(and mods could) use blue. Also handle all the game types, not
just the ones used by Team Arena. Fixes FFA and Team DM.
