[REQ] Skill-based team balancer for TF2

Extreme_One · **Author**

I'm pretty sure this plugin (if it were made) would be like the holy grail for many admins of public TF2 servers.

I also fear that like the holy grail it will never see the light of day.

Is this something that one of the SM coders could see fit to work on?

I started working on one, with the same belief, but then I realized that for two reasons it's really not that helpful.

1) Losing players usually leave, and then the auto balancer will move winning players to that team before new people join.

2) i have mp_winlimit set to 2 on most maps, this means if a team is dominating, the map changes and teams get scrambled.

I could see on a 24/7 server, or one with long map play times this would be useful, but I just really didn't see a strong enough need to warrant the time.
