Release Notes for 4/23/2014

 

[UI]

- The options menu now has a setting for specifying which command will enable the mouse on the scoreboard. The option has a few presets but any command may be set using the convar cl_scoreboard_mouse_enable_binding directly (e.g. 'cl_scoreboard_mouse_enable_binding +jump').

- Fixed uninitialized scorecard for competitive matches being visible.

- Improved lobby performance.

[SDK/MAPPING]

- Added a new trigger (trigger_bomb_reset) that teleports dropped bombs back to a valid in-play position. This is intended to be used in player-inaccessible areas where a dropped bomb cannot be retrieved.

- Bots no longer see through tools/toolsblock_los func_brushes (npc line-of-sight blockers).

- Bot maximum vision distance can be set per-map by "Bot max vision distance" in info_map_parameters. Default is unlimited.
