Considering stuff like XC_GameEngine, new Mapvote and other stuff coming, I'm thinking about making a small tool run on the server capable of altering maps a bit.
This way we improve their playability and adapt them to new changes depending on the map and what the server is running, without making clients download anything.

I'll add the most obvious changes to be done if we ever get this going.
Maps marked with (*) require said changes to be playable.

Suggest more stuff that would make some maps better.
Also, let me know what maps might become too difficult to end if doors block explosions.

if this means we can't make tele's anymore on top then i dis agree on this one.
its Always been played like it was made for
the whole map is about making a tele asap, its up to the enemy team to kill it before game ends.

Hard to argue kenneth's point since in the original version, mid spawns on the high cliff. The ultimate version has a water well that can be jumped into to break fall and attack from the high directly behind base, so it seems this map was designed for taking the high.

--- Updated ---

Also fix the outside wall on Diamondsword so you don't die when jumping into it lol.

Right now the map worthless to play, not a single time I've seen it go over the 40 minute mark.
And the cliff is WAAAAY too good, being both a safe nuking route and an unkillable teleporter zone.
The purpose of these changes is precisely to make these maps playable, not a contest on who executes the fastest cheese tactic.

(And don't bring up Bluevember, you have a critical time window before it gets fortified)

Also, mid spawn can be fixed in SiegeIV's ini.
If the maps were really designed for this, then might as well remove them from the server altogether, they're no good for a teleporter-based Siege.

One of our mappers is about to release a map where sniper isn't given to players, so yeah, it's possible.

These changes make good sense- give advantages to attackers on 3 hour overtime maps. The grenade launcher while overpowered helped to end stalemates on drawn out maps, so making map specific high powered weapons is the best solution.

What do the commands about the door triggers do- make it easier to open the door?

Just realized the Shakur kick on Fleece.

So not only this guy tries to copy my |uK| application, but he also attempts to copy my lines.

Weak.

Can spawn points be changed?

That damn Face version with the outside spawnpoints is such a pain ...
