Looking for ideas on Freezetag server - end user - 04-28-2013

I'm wanting to set up a FT server which resembles the Nexuiz one with camping rif
le, which has a 2 shot mode and second 5 shot mode along with hand granade.

I'm thinking of using these weapons which need to be modified

Machine Gun set the alt mode 5 shots to kill/freeeze
Mortar instead of hand granade but make the alt mode granade lauch 100% damage but with a 5 second recharge and leave the main mode as is?

Now what setting do I have to add to the server.cfg file to

only allow two weapons Machine Gun/Mortar and default laser for jumping.
change the damage settings
change the weapon reload/rachange settings
also need faster team member unfreeze as its too slow
allow unlimited amo

Thanks

Probably everything you need to change is in the normal balance set (a huge set of cvars for all the weapons etc.). For the default settings, have a look at balanceXonotic.cfg in your data folder, or here: http://git.xonotic.org/?p=xonotic/xonotic-data.pk3dir.git;a=blob;f=balanceXonotic.cfg

To change these settings, I would suggest to copy over the file and either execute it from your server.cfg or create a vote, allowing you to switch between balance sets.

So do I just add the cvar and change the settings from that file into my server.cfg file or can I create a nce balance file and link to it from the server.cfg file. If so what does the link line look like.

No, he suggests to save a copy of that file under a name such as "mybalance.cfg", edit it as you want, and call it from server.cfg by adding the line "exec mybalance.cfg". That way it could also be made a vote, by making a votable alias to that same exec mybalance.cfg command.
