Fixes and Additions in 2.0

Additions

[UT2Vote47.UT2VotePackages]
Packages=(MutClassName="Whatever.Whatever", ServerPackages="Whatever")
Added new Packages section for Admin to add Packages for large Mutators that they dont want players to download everytime they join a server.
When one of these Mutators are voted or added to a GameType, only then will the Package be added to the ServerPackages and downloaded to the client if they dont already have it.
All Mutators that you want added to the ServerPackages need to go here.
The ServerPackages= section can have multiple packages seperated by commas.

Home Key
There now is an option in the Client Menu to disable the Home key. bDisableHomeKey=True in User.ini file

The Menus
All menus have been tweaked and adjusted to fit better.

The Escape Key
The Escape key will now also Close ALL Menus regardless of where you are, except the ClientMenu simply because of the KeyBind functions in the ClientMenu

The Bonuspack
The requirement for the Bonuspack to be present on a Server has been removed.
However servers that have the Bonuspack they will not notice any change in UT2Vote at all except the Mutant Hud will be available.

Sub Heading
Created a new Sub Heading in the UT2Vote ini file:
[UT2Vote47.UT2VoteVoting]

VoteMinTime (Default 30)
The total amount of time allowed before timeout for 2 Players.

VoteMaxTime (Default 120)
The maximum time allowed regardless how many players are on the server.

VoteStepTime (Default 7)
The additional time allowed for every player after the VoteMinTime.

VoteIdleTime (Default 15)
Is the time that after everyone has voted and idles for this period, the VoteMaxTime will be forced and the vote decided.

Announcer On/Off
This option has been added to the Client Menu.

bForceShaking
This has been added to the IniOnly section and if set to True, it will bypass the Clients option to switch off his "WorldShaking" and force it to be enabled.

Spectator Admin
This Admin can now enter at Game end to do whatever he needs to do.

Hit Sounds
Added options for HitSounds clienside in Client Menu.
Also added bDisHitSounds= in IniOnly section to force disable Client HitSounds.

Clan Admin
Added where a Clan Admin can no longer ban Players.

Transparency
Added where the AddNew button toggles with a SeeThru button if Admin not present.
Transparency will switch immediately.

Spectate Button
Added where the Admin button toggles with a Spectate button if Admin not present.

bUseRandomMap
This was added to the IniOnly section and if set to True, a Random Map from the Server Maps folder will be chosed when no-one votes and the vote times out.
Currently it always switches to the default map.

DefaultSwitch
This is the time in minutes from 0 to 9 that the server checks whether there are any players on the server and if not, switches to the Default Game and also if bSwitchDefMap=True to switch to the Default Map.
If DefaultSwitch=0 then this option will be disabled.

Admin Game Menu.
The Admin Game menu has been revamped and updated with some options.

Friendly Fire
This option has been added to the Admin Game menu.

ServerPackages
UT2Vote will now Add/Remove all Mutator ServerPackages, except any Default UT2003 Mutators.
This is so players do not have to download a pile of Mutator packages when joining your server.
Keep an eye on the Serverpackages in the UT2004.ini (or whatever it’s named), if you restart the server or it crashed and restarts automaticaly, because ut2vote then don’t knows, which entries where made by whom and so it won’t change the last found settings. This means, if ut2vote added some packages and the server restarts, these packages will stay in and everyone has to download all of them.
