The design goal of this mod is enable teams to easily set up
a match with the settings they want, without the need of an

* Map locations
* Player id
* Match timer
* Voting
* In-game remote administration
* Teaminfo
* Chat flood protection


Description of client commands and variables:
---------------------------------------------------------------
There is a template 'user.cfg' included with the mod. All client 
comands and variables are explained in there. You can execute this 
file in the console with /exec user.cfg.

You can also change the client settings during the game by calling
the menu. The In Game menu is displayed with the 'menu' command.
Type /menu in the console or bind the command to a key, ex:
bind m "menu"
Menu navigation is acomplished by your movement and attack keys.

Attack  ->  With "+attack" you can go to deeper level in menusystem, 
            or choose action.

Secondary Attack -> With "+attack2" you go one level back in the menu.
