Version 3.0.0 Released

The translations file has been updated, please re-download this if you already have a copy. This release adds a lot of new functionality and options to the plugin such as the ability to block the classes screen from appearing and sensing which players have mics and using this information to balance the teams. If you'd like to make use of the mic detection just install asherkin's VoiceHook MetaMod:Source plugin and SM extension, no additional configuration is necessary.

Changes since 2.80 Release:
- Added functionality to re-display the team selection menu
- Added functionality to prevent the class selection menu from appearing (This is useful on servers which have custom models or model menus)
- Added option to allow players to join straight to CT team after joining (blocked by default)
- Patched a problem where all CTs were dead and 'Game Commencing' hadn't triggered
- Added sm_removeguard command with admin menu integration to remove a specific player from the guard queue
- Updated/added on to the translations file
- Added mic checking option (this feature requires asherkin's VoiceHook MM:S plugin)
- Code optimizations

Can you elaborate mic checking?

Mic checking requires asherkin's MM:S plugin found here:
http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=145457

If there is a CT shortage and a T->CT swap needs to occur, the mic checking will determine who on the T team has used a mic during that round and choose a random player from that sub-group. If no one has used a mic on T that round then it will leave the ratio as it is. It resets the list of people who used their mic every round.

In the future I'd like to expand this to give optional warnings to CTs who don't use their mic for a few rounds. And any ideas the community thinks of as well

Wow that is brilliant.

Well done

On a map change, when people first spawn, they sometimes just die immediately. What would be causing this?

Also, set it so people can join T whenever they want, since I set it so people can join either CT or T on connect. If someone wants to switch to T, they have to rejoin just to get on it, and that's extremely inconvenient.

People may join T whenever. Could you tell me more info on when it would block a join to T or when someone needs to rejoin to get on it? To have CT and T available on connect, set the sm_jbtb_blockct to 0 on your config file.

It could be a few things.. the joinclass command could be coming too late. Also, if someone joins T quickly then late-joiners to T and CT won't spawn. At the beginning of the map it should wait 4 seconds after a CT first joins and then check for these kinds of cases (lots of people dead) and respawn them.

Are you using the newest 3.0.4 version?

If so PM me a log file from the beginning of the map showing this and I'll take a look at it.

There is one bug outstanding that I'm aware where a player has to try and change to the opposite team before it will recognize that you've joined. That's why there's a timer that checks if everyone is dead after 4 seconds and takes action. I'm still investigating the root cause of this.
