Since spy-cicle was released I found it pretty dangerous weapon on turbomod servers. Spyes became invulnerable to pyros and ballance was changed. It needs to be fixed. Could you please someone help me? It should be just one cvar to turn it on/off.

Jut change the weapon to a regular knife or whatever with TF2ITems.

[FudgePoly]

Just use the tNoUnlocksPls plugin in the "all weapons allowed by default" mode and block any weapon you feel is unbalanced.

Thanks. But I can't find anything related to spy-cicle here. http://tracker.limetech.org/projects...items_game.txt
what should I write in tf2items.weapons.txt to reject spy-cicle?

Spy-cicle is item 649. Not sure how you can use tNoUnlocksPls to block that, though.

Adapted from CowBlock.

It simply removes the spy-cicle on inventory application and prints a notice to chat. I'm sure someone can incorporate TF2Items to give the client a default knife instead.
