Features 2.5.32(most features have a corresponding ConVar in cfg/sourcemod/plugin.gscramble.cfg)
Scramble-Modes- 6 Sort Modes
- 1 = Random
- 2 = Scoreboard Scores
- 3 = A ratio of score and connection time

- Respawn everyone after scramble depending on time and setting
- Restart round after scramble depending on time and setting
- Charge medic ubercannon if scramble occurs during setup
- Reset setup timer if scramble occurs during setup
Auto-Scramble
- scramble when one team is over-powered
- can trigger a vote instead of scrambling
Auto-Balance
- Balance valid players (admin, engineers, top scoring players, players helping their team (cp captures, flag touching, sentry destroying), and medics all can be made immune)
- Force balance after teams have been imbalanced too long
Force-Balance
- Admin can execute force-balance command
- Force-balance can happen between rounds
- Force-balance can happen if teams become too imbalanced
General
- Admin menu integration
- Force clients to accept their new team by blocking join team commands (detect reconnecting with clientprefs)
- RTV-style votescramble starting
- Admin commands for starting a scramble vote
- Allow clients to choose what team they'd prefer to be on (overrides auto-balance)
- Native bool gs_isBlocked(client) to see if the plugin is blocking someone from swapping teams
- (Experimental) Ask clients recently swapped if they want to rejoin their old team when someone reconnects and gets forced onto a team
- If enabled, block clients from changing to spectate if it will cause an imbalance
- If enabled, allow clients to choose a buddy to protect themselves from auto-balance and scramble.
- If enabled, block public voting when admins are present.
- *NEW If enabled, block clients from changing teams when mp_forceautoteam is enabled

Changes/Additions:
Code:
* denotes a late change/addition that didn't warrant a new version
2.5.32
- noticed that top player protection was not included in
the normal auto-balance immunity check
+ add flag carrier tracking and immunity from force-balance
- changed some default convar settings in the cfg
2.5.31
+ added covnar to disable auto-balance when there is less than a
certain amount of time remaining in a round.

enabled hopefully
2.5.3
- fixed the vote logging to show who voted against the vote when it
fails
- tried to add safeguards from potential overflow from force-balance..
didn't see any really, but still added safe-guards =\
- updated RU translation
- added check for the translation file, if it doesn't exist, the plugin goes
into fail-state
- *add PL translation
- *check for medigun in medic's slot 2 before attempting to set/read the charge-level. Just prevents errors from being logged when a mod changes
the weapon, or takes it away.

2.5.2
+ add kill-death ratio sort mode
+ add top-players swap sort mode
+ add convar to control how many top players get swapped
- fixed rare instance where a player leaves one server while teamchange blocked and joins a different server, only to be forced to the team he was on while playing on the first server. This was due to a global clientprefs db.
- You should update your cfg files with this.
