As the servers have gown over the years many of the mods and plugins have been unified across all of our servers. Updating all of the servers update log with the same information is confusing and makes it harder for users to track major changes. This thread will track changes that effect ALL of the servers. There are many plugins that exist across all the servers, when ever any of these plugins are changed or if a new one is added it will be noted in this thread. The most common changes will be plugins involved with the admin system as those are the same across all servers. Any changes in command structure will also be noted in this thread for convince.
1.0.0
Added rconbridge
I made this so admins can run the following in place of rcon commands
rcon_gravity
rcon_alltalk
rcon_noblock
rcon_parachute
1.0.1
Updated rconbridge with 2 new commands
rcon_reload
rcon_restart
1.0.2
Updated SM and MM to latest versions
Added afk manager back
Updated map vote plugin
Updated rconbridge to clamp values to ensure that no setting can become out of bounds and cause a server crash.
Updated rconbridge to state the name and steam id if the user who activated a command in chat when the new setting is declared
Updated sourcemod to always display the name of the admin using a given admin command or chat ect.
Changed sm log format from military to 12 hour am pm settings for easier time reading log files
Updated the freeze command to the maximum allowed length of 2min, hey I did not program it so do not look at me.
Updated automated server clean up so that demos expire after 5 days and so that admin logs are never cleaned even if they have not been updated in over a month.
Removed the gui option in the killer info display it will show data in chat only
Fixed messages from botsoverseer plugin in that said messages will no longer occur.
1.0.3
Fixed color of ads to display properly
1.0.4
Updated SRCDS
1.0.5
Rate Optimizations: By increasing the minimum forced rate to be about 25% higher than before along with some other changes hit registration on all servers is increased in addition the length of choppy game play and or tick drops is decreased. Tests on the zombie server saw a 75% reduction in the size of server side lag and a 99% reduction in the length of said lag when it occurred.
1.0.6
Fixed logs so that HS and other weapon and player actions would be tracked as they were before under mani
Enabled some new tracking for things like domination however there is currently nothing setup on psychostats to use it
Removed all outdated mani load lines and files (server clean up, also prevents console errors on map load)
1.0.7
Updated SM configs to prevent maps not listed in mapcycle.txt from being selected.
1.0.8
Added game descriptions for the mods that support it
Disabled file indexing (reduced server load 15%, speed up map changes)
Disabled phantom servers (still investigating this one, apparently every server had 2 instances running where the 2nd instance would be on a different port) this reduced memory usage 50% and cpu usage 10%
1.0.9
Enabled sm_vote they syntax is: <question> [answer1] [answer2] [answer3] ...
1.1.0
