General Changes
Added Italian language support
All explosions (rockets, heal grenades, etc.) now have leniency to prevent them from being eaten by stairs or small ledges
Players that die during setup time or 6 seconds after spawning will now respawn with instant wave time
Server hosts can control this behavior with [c]tf2c_spawncamp_window_default[/c] ConVar
Added a new key [c]spawncamp_window_override[/c] to [c]tf_gamerules[/c] entity to allow map authors to override this behavior for their maps
Reintroduced [c]mp_scrambleteams_mode[/c], allowing server hosts to use different algorithms for balancing the teams on scramble
0 (default) is score/connection time ratio, 1 is kill/death ratio, 2 is score, 3 is class, 4 is random
Modes 0/1/2 operate in two passes, the first tries to even out the teams based on the scoring mode, the second is a "class pass" that looks for any cheap swaps to even out team composition
Scrambles can be automatically triggered at round end based on team-level score differences, win streaks, or lack of objective progress in a round
[c]mp_scrambleteams [/c]takes "3" and "4" as arguments, for scrambling without restarting the round, and for scheduling a scramble at the start of next round, respectively. Mid-round scrambles attempt to move as few people as possible to balance the teams
Certain players will be ignored by scrambles, such as VIPs, Medics with full charge, or Engineers with nests up
Vote-derived scrambles don't restart the round by default
Depending on how they're written, this may interfere with existing scrambling plugins, if you run into any issues as a server host then try disabling your plugin first
Autobalance no longer gives up if the first three people it checks on a team are all alive
Reimplemented ejected casing and shell sounds
Fixed the Pistol and SMG only ejecting one casing during continuous fire in third-person
Player models now blink again
Added one new default spray
Default sprays are now randomized when launching the game for the first time
Fixed a startup crash related to Sentry crash reporting
Fixed a crash in PD and RD gamemodes related to more than 4 pickups being active at once
Fixed a crash caused by the Meteor Shower Halloween spell (#835)
Player ranks now use a new endpoint
[c]lastdisguise[/c] now remembers if you were disguised as the enemy team or your own team, instead of restoring your previous disguise even after a team switch
[c]disguise[/c] now accepts [c]-2[/c] as a value to disguise as your own team again
Item meters now get filled when dispatching [c]impulse 101[/c]
Fixed GRN and YLW players being able to airblast others or be airblasted during truces
Fixed attacks on GRN and YLW players during truces creating blood (despite not doing damage)
Fixed tournament mode not being able to start if inactive teams (ex. GRN and YLW when only RED and BLU are playable) aren't ready
Fixed GRN and YLW players being able to use some restricted gameplay commands freely (#508)
Fixed [c]tf2c_vip_low_health_warning[/c] not working on servers (#788)
Fixed an issue where you could join an invalid class when [c]tf2c_allow_special_classes[/c] was enabled (#841)
Readded [c]sayecho[/c] ConCommand (#941)
Readded [c]tf2c_maxspeed[/c] ConVar
Added [c]tf2c_disable_proximity_voice[/c] ConVar, for server hosts
Exposed [c]r_FadeProps[/c] ConVar
Fixed [c]tf2c_resupply_cabinet_sounds[/c] not working on servers (#955)
Sentry Guns now use particle bullet tracers (#957)
Mini-Sentries and certain Energy Weapons can now use GRN and YLW particles
Fixed nail projectiles sometimes being invisible
Fixed beach balls and other models using jigglebones becoming invisible when shot at (community fix from Joey Cheerio)
Fixed being able to push physics-based projectiles with [c]+use[/c]
Fixed arrow-based projectiles changing direction when entering water (community fix from Bradasparky)
Fixed the Sapper's needle on the viewmodel not moving when highlighting a building
Fixed Arena rounds starting instantly when at least two players are present
Fixed [c]kill_roulette[/c] ConCommand not working after last update's security fixes
Updated the localization files
Weapon Changes
Updated the Flame Thrower:
Flames now use lag compensation, like hitscan, so targets are rewound to align with where the Pyro is visibly aiming
This should make the Flame Thrower feel consistent regardless of ping
Rockets, grenades, and other derived projectiles can now be "rewound" (lag compensated) on airblast based on what the Pyro sees, just like players have always been
Airblasted enemies now have less air control again when trying to move back towards the Pyro; meaning it should now be easier to airblast people off cliffs
Rebased on the latest changes from Team Comtress 2, including:
Flames now more accurately distinguish between dense clumps of fire and stray particles, scaling down by their heat over time as they become stale
Fixed an exploit that allowed users to maintain full accuracy by puffing short bursts
Fixed alignment with tickrate that was causing inconsistent application of damage
General tweaks to DPS and scaling
Updated the Twin Barrel:
Fixed the Twin Barrel not using its third-person reloading animation (#351)

Updated the Tranquilizer Gun:
Fixed the slowing effect ending early on the second time an enemy is hit in a given life
Updated Dispensers:
Updated Nail projectiles (Nail Gun and Syringe Gun):
Projectiles are now lag compensated, so they should match client visuals that were previously desynchronized from the server, and feel consistent regardless of ping
