Build 166

Build 166 is now live on the server. This build introduces the following:

DM Rating:

  • Added a rating system to compliment the kill / death ratio stat.
  • This rating system is loosely related to the ELO rating system.
  • Your first 30 kills will set your start rating.
  • Your rating or another player’s rating can be viewed by using /stats or /info (once one is set).
  • This rating will possibly be used for other things in the future.

Other:

  • Fixed an issue where the map voting in an arena could select the wrong map.
  • Fixed an issue with the C-Bug and Arms Race timer for stats.
  • Added an option to turn the location textdraw in the bottom left corner of the screen off.
  • Added an option to turn the reintroduced Weekday textdraw off.
  • Fixed an issue where the netstats textdraw would be on upon joining the server even when it was turned off.
  • Other bug fixes and improvements.

As for the DM Rating, here is a rundown on how it basically works:

  • Once an initial rating is set, players with a high rating that kill a lower rating player will gain less points.  Players with a low rating that kill a higher rating player will gain more points, with the opponent losing that amount of points.
  • Your actual rating does not update in real time, but after a certain amount of kills / deaths occur.

The rating system may still need to be tweaked / adjusted in the coming weeks so if ratings will need to be reset, an announcement will be made about it.

Thanks.
