1.4.1 release

• add "playout" setup option (default to off & not displayed) that wraps mp_match_can_clinch

1.4.0 release

Upgrading from 1.3.x:

• I recommend deleting and installing the new files, but simply overwriting the files will be sufficient.
• The plugin is compiled against sourcemod 1.7.1 now, but only sourcemod 1.7.0 is required on the server

Full changelog: https://github.com/splewis/csgo-pug-setup/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

Overview of core changes:

• setup options not stored via cvars, but by a separate config file
• workshop collection support improved, but requires the SteamWorks extension
• autobalanced teams via the rwsbalancer is a setup option (i.e. a 4th team type in the team type menu)
• when a player votes for a map, it is always displayed in chat now
• fixes to handling the ingame warmup

1.3.3 release

This is mostly a bugfix release. Updating plugin binaries (at least addons/sourcemod/plugins/pugsetup.smx) will be sufficient.

1.3.3:

• fix the rwsbalancer being totally broken with team balancing
• bugfixes with the use of default setup options overriding the actual setup options used
• fix sm_pugsetup_any_can_pause not having the correct effect
• add pugsetup_damageprint plugin to replicate ESEA damage printing options (experimental)
• add commands sm_t, sm_ct for picking sides after winning a knife round in addition to sm_stay and sm_swap

1.3.2 release

If upgrading from a 1.3.x version, updating the plugins themselves (addons/sourcemod/plugins) and translations (addons/sourcemod/translations) will be sufficient.

Changes:

• the auto-live-on-3 (named autolive) setting can now be turned off again, cvars sm_pugsetup_default_autolive and sm_pugsetup_autolive_option control the default setting and whether the setting is avaliable in the setup menu
• captains can now be set by selecting a "select captains" option in the .setup menu after a game is setup
• the pugsetup_hostname addon now displays scores in the name (e.g. [LIVE 11-8])
• the pugsetup_rwsbalancer addon will not respect users that try to override the captains the plugin set (it sets captains as the 2 highest rated players)
• fix the PugSetupMessageToAll native not checking for clients being in game and causing errors

1.3.1 release

This mostly a bugfix release:

1.3.1:

• several bug fixes when using default setting cvars
• pausing now works during knife rounds
• new command: sm_forcestart to force a match to proceed forward even if everyone isn't ready
• add forward OnStartRecording
• the rwsbalancer plugin can store data in any of: clientprefs, a flat keyvalues file on disk, or a MySQL database now (set by the sm_pugsetup_rws_storage_method cvar)

1.3.0

I've finally gotten around to creating another release of this plugin, and there's some neat new features for users.

For upgrading:

• you will need sourcemod 1.7 installed on the server
• you should extract all the new files over the previous ones, as well as delete cfg/sourcemod/pugsetup/pugsetup.cfg and let the file be regenerated by the plugin since there are many new cvars.

Overview of new features:

• a simpler setup menu
• knife rounds can be used to select starting sides (by the winners typing .stay or .swap)
• the setup menu option defaults can be controlled (by new cvars)
• the setup menu options can be chosen to not display at all, and always use the default (by new cvars)
• translation support
• you can edit sourcemod/configs/pugsetup/chataliases.cfg to add custom chat aliases for pugsetup commands
• many optional addon plugins were written, all of which are disabled by default (move them up a directory from plugins/disabled to plugins/ to enable them)
• one such addon plugin is pugsetup_practicemode.smx, which adds an option to the .setup menu which "launches practice mode" and can be used to turn on respawns, infinite ammo, etc.

Full changelog notes:

• sourcemod 1.7 is now required
• instead of a choice "auto-lo3", there is now a cvar for the length of a countdown timer (sm_pugsetup_start_delay)
• the top .setup menu has be rewritten to be simpler and use toggle options rather than a series of pages
• new cvar: sm_pugsetup_autosetup can be used to automatically do a game setup with the "default" options
• default options can be set by the new cvars: sm_pugsetup_default_knife_rounds, sm_pugsetup_default_maptype, sm_pugsetup_autorecord, sm_pugsetup_default_teamsize, sm_pugsetup_default_teamtype
• knife rounds can now be used for choosing starting sides
• new cvar: sm_pugsetup_exclude_spectators can be used to exclude spectators from the game (i.e. they don't have to ready up)
• new cvar: sm_pugsetup_mutual_unpausing can be set to 1 to require both teams to type .unpause before an unpause takes effect
• new cvar: sm_pugsetup_snake_captain_picks can be set to 1 to have captains pick players in a ABBAABBA format
• add forwards/natives for other plugins to add custom behavior, see pugsetup.inc.
• added optional plugin pugsetup_autokicker, which kicks players that join when the game is already live, and players not selected by captains when using captain-player selection
• added optional plugin pugsetup_teamnames, which sets team names/flag according to the players on the team, see more detail at the end of the readme
• added optional plugin pugsetup_hostname, which adds some tags to the server hostname depending on the pug status, examples: "[LIVE]" and "[NEED 3]"
• added optional plugin pugsetup_rwsbalancer, which implements a simple rws calculation (stored via clientprefs) and balances team accordingly when using manual /random teams
• added optional plugin pugsetup_chatmoney, which prints out the team members' money to chat on round starts
• added optional plugin pugsetup_practicemode, which adds an option to the .setup menu to launch a practice mode with cheats/infinite ammo/respawning/etc.
• workshop collection ids can be used instead of a maplist file in sm_pugsetup_maplist if the System2 extension is installed
• new commands: sm_forceend, sm_forceready
• custom chat aliases may be defined in addons/sourcemod/configs/pugsetup/chataliases.cfg
• translation support
• re-add updater support
