This is a patch for a quake world server ( not Quake ).  It contains
the following modifications:

still in development: merc ctf

  admin           - administration:

                    allows runtime configuration of the modules.
                    at the moment random weapons, and runes are
                    configurable.

			serverinfo dq [1|0]    - DropQuad
			serverinfo dr [1|0]    - DropRing

			serverinfo rw [1|0]    - Random Weapons
			serverinfo ru [1|0]    - Runes

                        serverinfo dark [1|0]  - enables impulse 130 
                                                 to change mode

  airfist         - airfist:

	            a big gun sort of thing which blows anything
		    out of the way.  this will be on the shotgun
		    twice, once picked up.

		    [ disabled by default ]

  burn            - burning:
  
                    fire!  when hit by the weld gun you can get
		    set on fire.

                    [ used by weldgun ]

  chain           - chain lightning gun:

		    adapted from the one found in the pain keep 
		    patch, this one unfortunately doesn't have the
		    orange beams.  but can be found on 8 twice.

  ctf             - mercenary capture the flag:
  
                    allows maps with flags to operate in ctf mode.
                    players start of as mercenaries, if they touch one
                    of the flags they join that team.

                    BUG: after capturing the flag, you have to wait
                    about 30s before picking it up again.  bizaar.

		    [ in development ]

  female          - female player:

                    female sounds.

  femmod          - female player 2:

                    a female model.

                    WORK: cannot map normal player skins on, current
                    skins are hideous, would like to work in weapon
                    module.

                    [ part of the lan module ]

  freeze          - freeze gun:
  
                    sort of blue grenade launcher, on 6 twice.

  gas             - gas launcher:

                    fancy big gun, like arnie uses in terminator 2.
                    on the rocket launcher 7 twice.

                    WORK: needs some sounds
            
  gatling         - gatling gun:

                    very big gun.  on the super nailgun twice.

  help            - user help:
  
                    aliases the help-server command to bring up help.
		    provides impulse commands and aliases for all other
		    featured modules.

  holo            - holoquake ( aka holoduke ):
  
                    remember the holoduke, here's one for quake.  stands
		    firing, uses 10 energy cells, only one allowed.
		    
		    holo - create holoquake
                    unholo - destroy holo

  hook            - grapple hook:
                    
		    much better version than that silly mace on ctf.
		    the impulses for this are 'stuffed' to players so
		    all they have to do is bind a key to +hook.

  lan             - lan users:

                    do you have nice big computers which a nice network?
                    this option uses models for male/female players showing
                    which weapon they have selected.

                    [ includes weapons and female 1/2 ]

  levelselect     - level select:
  
                    very handy module which can define how the levels are
		    played.  some examples are included, includes random
		    levels.

  motd            - message of the day:
  
                    the login screen of the server, now features changing
		    messages.  unfortunately almost never read.

  protect         - player protection:
  
                    new spawning players are given 666 protection for
		    6 seconds.

		    [ use deathmatch 4 & 5 ]

  proximity       - proximity mine:
  
                    select the grenade twice, fire and a little parcel is
		    dropped.  it hits the floor jumps up, and spins around
		    then the unlucky player who walks into it goes boom!

  random          - random objects:
  
                    randomizes placings of objects, there are object groups
		    and each object in that group is randomly placed.  its
		    there to stop campers, and to help people who don't know
		    the level too well.

  runes           - runes:
  
                    those ctf runes in full, haste, strength, protection,
		    and regeneration.

  serverconsole   - server console:
  
                    a less verbose version of console output to the servers
		    console.  plus here logging commands have been added, this
		    can be changed to taste.

  shotgun         - shotgun shells:
	
	            ejected shotgun shell casings for the shotgun and
		    super shotgun.

  status          - Status Bar:
  
                    informs the player to which rune they are carrying, and
                    the gl weapon (grenade/proximity/freeze), axe weapon,
                    and lightning weapon.

  telefrag        - telefrag protect:
                    
		    when player respawn every spawn point will be checked
		    and the player will be teleported to that point.
		    
  weldgun         - weldgun:
  
                    changes the nailgun to fire molten blobs of iron.

  weapons         - player weapon models:

                    the currently selected weapon is show on the player model.

                    WORK: needs extra weapons to be modded

                    [ part of the lan module ]

Also included are the DropRing and DropQuad functions so that when a player
dies with Quad Damage or the Ring of Shadows these are dropped.

WORK: Quake2 weapons - i.e. no auto select, once weapon has run out of ammo
it will stay selected and clik empty.
