•
player.CreateNextBot sets the bot name by the time player_activate event is called
-
•
Bump max Source Engine save game size to 12M (from 3) - so the game is not stuck in a (near) infinite loop when trying to load malformed saves during level transitions
-
•
Bump "cvarlist" buffers from 128 to 1024, so console command/variable descriptions fit
-
•
Linux: Do not try to execute threaded tasks if there are no tasks - this addresses significant slowdowns on Linux (srcds?) to do with the filesystem
-
•
Removing point_spotlight will now also remove entities it created
-
•
More safeguards against loading malformed .gma files
-
•
Fixed weapon tracer spread on Y axis not being taken into account at all when the effect is fired serverside
-
•
Micro optimizations to spawnicon and static prop rendering
-
•
PhysModelCreateBox doesn't reset solid parameters
-
•
Replace missing .png/.jpg image data with solid white color - this would happen when a Material()'d .png file goes missing (is deleted). It used to be undefined behavior
-
•
func_smokevolume removes its particles when dormant (when not seen by the player), so the particles can be used by other entities since there's a global limit
-
•
Mount floating .GMA files before fetching info about subscriptions - so they load in time if launching the game with +map
-
•
Always mount folder addons before Workshop system (so that the workshop system can find floating .gmas in addons/ folders consistently)
-
•
Do not hide servers with out of bounds data such as impossible player counts, clamp the data instead
-
•
Mention valid sample rates in "Invalid sample rate X for sound Y" warning
-
•
Unblock mp_flashlight console variable in menu state (for use by gamemode convar settings)
-
•
mat_texture_list - Don't display alpha channel for formats without alpha channel (RGB888, etc)
-
•
Navmesh auto-blocking checks now run on map start/cleanup
-
•
Rework how spawnpoint entities are added in base gamemode - one file now, not 25 duplicated files
-
•
Move default console position to the left a bit so it does not obstruct certain main menu UI elements by default
-
•
Code cleanup: Replace debug.getregistry usage with RegisterMetaTable where appropriate (Community Contribution)
-
•
Code cleanup: Use math.tau in some places instead of 2 * math.pi (Community Contribution)
-
•
Use m_yaw/m_pitch convars instead of hardcoded values in the built-in taunt cam (Community Contribution)
-
•
Use 4-number overload of surface.SetDrawColor in base game for performance (Community Contribution)
-
•
`teamonly` in `player_say` game event is now networked to clients
-
•
npc_combinecamera now fires OnLostEnemy output on losing its target
-
•
Changed how SWEPs store ViewModel/WorldModel/PrintName - To get rid of 80 character limit for all 3 fields
-
•
Network gravity scale for players, for prediction
-
•
Reduced networked bit counts for player's driving mode ID, player class ID and team ID (from 32bit)
-
•
Network "Sprint Enabled" state to players for prediction (Player:SprintDisable)
-
•
Do not initialize the scaled prop physics objects as physics shadows for clientside only entities
-
•
Do not network duplicate health/velocity for players - Since it is already done for all entities
-
•
Do not set collision bounds on physgun beam to save network bandwidth
-
•
Increased `modelprecache` maximum size to 8192 (from 4096)
