Documentation
Introduction
N!tmod is a Wolfenstein : Enemy Territory® modification.
If you are reading this document, it certainly means that you want to install the mod on your server or learn more about it.
Thanks a lot for giving N!tmod a try.
The goal is to make a fun, actively developped, bug free and easy to use mod, to bring something new to the W:ET community.
In this document you will find everything you need to configure your N!tmod server properly, or informations about client side cvars that can be used to modify your gameplay.

Table of Contents
1. Mod Installation
Download N!tmod on http://www.nitmod.com
N!tmod final versions come with lua libs, extract the lua_libs.zip archive and place the correct files for your server (windows or linux) where your ETDED.exe or etded.x86 is located.
Unzip the downloaded file in the path where W:ET is installed.
Add +set fs_game nitmod in the command line you are using to start your server.
Exemple :
Windows :
ETDED.exe +set fs_game nitmod +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg
Linux :
etded.x86 +set fs_game nitmod +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg
Create or modify a server.cfg file to enable/disable/adjust N!tmod features.
You can also use the sample cfg named "nitmod.cfg" included in final packages.
N!tmod WILL NOT RUN ON UNPURE SERVERS !! set sv_pure "1"

Accept connections from players that have no guid (i.e.: cl_guid = "unknown" OR cl_guid = "NO_GUID")
If you don't want to allow players with empty guids, set this cvar to 0.
Note: Other GUID checks willl still be performed (and can't be disabled). Also, the "NO_GUID" problem can happen to a lot of players if evenbalance auth server is down.
Default: 1
g_mapVoteFlags [bitflag]
Bitflags to set various options for Map Voting gametype. Only valid when Map Voting gametype (g_gametype 6) is enabled.
1 : Changes the tie breaker so that the map not played in the longest wins
2 : Intermission doesn't end until g_intermissionReadyPercent people have voted. If there are no players connected to the server, intermission will end at the timeout. (WARNING: This means that if there are spectators connected and not voting, the next map will not load until those spectators either vote, disconnect, or get kicked by the system).
4 : Multi vote: Allows everybody to vote for 3 maps instead of one, first choice map gets 3 votes, second choice gets 2, third choice gets one.
8 : Don't randomize the maps, so they will always appear in the same order.
16 : A passed nextmap vote (when g_gametype is 6) will start the intermission and lets players vote which map should be played next. NOTE: this makes one of the two teams be displayed as winner.
Default: 0
g_maxMapsVotedFor [integer]
How many maps are presented to users for voting upon during intermission. Only valid when Map Voting gametype (g_gametype 6) is enabled.
Default: 6
g_minMapAge [integer]
How long a map is ineligible for voting, after it is played. Only valid when Map Voting gametype (g_gametype 6) is enabled.
Default: 3
g_resetXPMapCount [integer]
How many maps occur before XP is reset. If g_XPSave flag 4 is set, g_resetXPMapCount is ignored.
Similarly, if g_resetXPMapCount is set to 0, it is the same as setting g_XPSave flag 4. Only valid when Map Voting gametype (g_gametype 6) is enabled.
Default: 0
g_excludedMaps [string]
Used to exclude map that would otherwise be listed in the map voting list. The format is ":map1:map2:map3:", where mapX is the .bsp name. Note that each mapname must be fully surrounded by ":" otherwise the map will not be excluded. Only valid when Map Voting gametype (g_gametype 6) is enabled.
Default: ""
g_dualSMG [integer]
Allow players to carry a 2nd SMG (mp40 or Thompson). This option does NOT work for CovertOps AND Soldiers.

g_dropObj [integer]

Default: 0
g_secureShrubPassword [string]
If set, "Secure Shrubbot Login" will be enabled.
When this feature is enabled, some important shrubbot commands will require admins to be logged in using the "/sslogin" client command.
We introduced this feature because of problems related to GUID spoofing.
For example : If someone spoofs the GUID of a high level admin, he could be able to modify a LOT of things with commands such as !leveledit (and the new commands that will be added in the future to manage admins and levels without manually editing your shrubbot file). With this feature enabled, high level admins will need to know the password and use "/sslogin" to use important commands.
We also added "/sslogout" client command.
Note : If set to "none" or "" (empty), "Secure Shrubbot Login" will be disabled and important commands will be available without logging in.
Default : "none"
g_DJHeight [value]
Used to control how high players will be able to double jump
Default : "1.4"
g_GUIDChecks [boolean]
Check if clients GUID appears to be valid when they connect. If not, server will reject the connection.
1 : Enable
0 : Disable
Default : 1
g_IPChecks [boolean]
Check if clients IP appears to be valid when they connect. If not, server will reject the connection.
1 : Enable
0 : Disable
Default : 1
shoutcastPassword [string]
If set, Shoutcaster status will be available.
When this feature is enabled, players will be able to log in using the "/sclogin" client command (They will need the password in order to login).
Once you become a shoutcaster, you will be able to see (when spectator) :
Landmines
Players names
Timers above dynamites
Revive sprites above dead players
Your shoutcaster status will be visible to other players in the scoreboard ("SHOUTCASTER" will be displayed instead of "SPECTATOR")
If you join a team, your shoutcaster status will have no effet, it only works when you're in the Spectator team.
In order to revoke your shoutcaster status, use the "/sslogout" client command.
If set, shoutcaster status can be granted with the rcon commands : "makeshoutcaster" and "makesc".
Shoutcaster status can also be revoked through rcon with commands : "removeshoutcaster" and "removesc".
Note : If set to "none" or "" (empty), Shoutcaster status will be unavailable.
Default : "none"

nocensorflood : Cannot be censored or flood protected
silentcmds : Can use silent commands ( /!command in the console)
specchat : Can see team and fireteam chat when spectator
balanceimmunity : Can switch teams any time, regardless of balance

novotelimit : Can call a vote at any time (regardless of a vote being disabled or voting limitations)
permban : Does not need to specify a duration for a ban (PermBan)
teamcmds : Can run commands from team and fireteam chat
inactivity : Inactivity rules do not apply to them (see g_inactivity, g_spectatorInactivity and g_inactivityOptions)
shrubbotimmunity : Shrubbot commands cannot be used on them (This must be given explicitly, * does not include it)
pmspec : Can see private messages when spectator
incognito : Does not show up as an admin in !listplayers (This must be given explicitly, * does not include it)
novote : Not allowed to call votes
adminchat : Can use the AdminChat (> 2.0b5)
all : Wildcard for all the above flags (except incognito and novote)
Following content will explain you how to create/modify levels and admins.
Level
This is what a level entry looks like in the shrubbot config
[level]
level = 1
name = ^1R^7egular ^1P^7layer
flags = help listplayers admintest gibme showbans resetmyxp about
greeting = Welcome [n] to our server!
greeting_sound = sound/greetings/regular.wav
This means that a player with level 1 will have access to the following commands : !help, !listplayers, !admintest, !gibme, !showbans, !resetmyxp, !about.
The [n] in the greeting line will be replaced by the player name.
He will also get a greeting text and a greeting sound when he will join the server.
Still it’s possible to give more commands to a player without changing his level, see below.
Admin.
This is what an admin entry looks like in the shrubbot config (since 2.0)
[admin]
name = ^wN^q!^wtrox^p*
guid = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX1a2b3c4d
ip = 127.0.0.1
level = 5
flags = all
greeting = Welcome [n]
greeting_sound = sound/nit/mk5.wav
mac = XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
timestamp = 2010-08-23 20:44:18
This means N!trox* is a level 5 admin with all the shrubbot flags (except "incognito" and "novote", because the "all" flag doesn’t give them)
He will also get a greeting text and a greeting sound when he will join the server.
His GUID, IP and MAC Address will be used in case an admin decides to ban him. The mod will check these 3 informations when a client connects and if a ban entrie matches, the connection will be rejected.
The timestamp is used in !userinfo and !seen commands. !userinfo will display the date and time he was on. !seen will display the time elapsed since he was connected.
Command.
This is what a custom command entry looks like in the shrubbot config
Custom shrubbot commands are available The command to execute accepts up to 9 arguments, using [1] to [9]. This requires g_shortcuts to be set to 1. Each level that should get the command must be specified.
[command]
command = command
exec = command to execute
desc = description of the command (used for !help command)
levels = 0 1 2 3
Exemple for 2 commands, used to modify the maximum and minimum number of bots on the server.
[command]
command = minbots
exec = bot minbots [1]
desc = Sets the minimum number of bots on the server
levels = 6 7
[command]
command = maxbots
exec = bot maxbots [1]
desc = Sets the maximum number of bots on the server
levels = 6 7
This means that levels 6 and 7 admins will be allowed to use !maxbots and !minbots, these commands (the exec part) will be executed directly through rcon (remote console).
/!\ Shrubbot system limits :
Maximum custom commands : 64
Maximum custom command length : 17 characters
Maximum shrubbot levels : 64
Maximum shrubbot admins : 32768
Maximum shrubbot bans : 1024
5. Team Death Match Gametype
Since the first N!tmod public release, Team Death Match gametype is available.
In Team Death Match, the goal is to reach the score defined by the server admin.
This score is usually displayed in the top center of the screen, below team scores.
If you have set cg_TDMScorePos client cvar to 1, the score will not be displayed on your screen.
You can still find it by typing /tdminfo in your console.
/tdminfo will display a few informations about how Team Death Match gametype works.
Since 2.0, we have reworked TDM to make it even better.
We have added the g_TDMObjBonus cvar to let you choose how many bonus points will be given to a team if they complete the final map objective.
If g_TDMObjBonus is set to 0, no bonus points will be given.
We have also added the g_TDMOptions cvar that allows you to change a few things in TDM gametype.
TDM Gametype doesn't require any special maps, mapscripts or configs.
To run Team Death Match gametype on your server, just set g_gametype to 7 and adjust g_TDMScore, g_TDMOptions and g_TDMObjBonus cvars.
6. Death Match Gametype
Since N!tmod 2.0, we have added a new gametype into the mod. This gametype has been added to bring something new into ET. Nowadays, a lot of games offer the Death Match (Free For All) gametype.
That's why we decided to introduce it into ET aswell.
In Death Match, the objective is to kill as many players as possible. Everybody is your enemy, so don't hesitate to shoot anyone as soon as you see them.
We are using special mapscripts for this gametype. In order to run Death Match, you have to make sure the *_dm.script mapscript exists for this map.
DM Mapscripts can be found in N!tmod pk3, and also on http://www.nitmod.com/downloads/dm_scripts.
We have also added a "DeathMatch Mapscripts Request" to our forums to let you request DM mapscripts for maps that aren't compatible yet.
In N!tmod 2.0 Final, these maps are available for Death Match :
oasis
fueldump
radar
railgun
battery
goldrush
venice
supply
braundorf_b4
bremen_b2
frostbite
caen
caen2
et_mor2
mlb_temple
purefrag
sp_delivery_te
v2base
warbell
More maps will be compatible in further releases.
f you want to create your own mapscripts, you will have to create several "team_ctf_greenspawn" with the "create" mapscript action.
Also, don't forget to remove everything that has to be dynamited, like walls, gates etc..
During DeathMatch, lots of entities are removed by the mod:
doors
"team_ctf_bluespawn"
"team_ctf_redspawn"
Ammo cabinets
Health cabinets
constructible markers (sometimes they are still visible but u can walk through)
Also during DM :
Fireteams are disabled
Only spectators can follow players
Players are sent to limbo when they die
Medics dont get medpacks/syringes
FieldOps don't get ammopacks/airstrike canisters
Engineers don't get dynamites/pliers
CovertOps don't get satchel/smoke bombs
Scoreboard is modified
Radar won't show any players
Timelimit is ignored
g_dropHealth is ignored
g_dropAmmo is ignored
Spawns cant be used during 10 seconds after the last time they have been used
Bots will consider everybody as an enemy
g_teamDamageRestriction is ignored
crosshair health and name drawing are disabled
Don't forget to take a loot at g_DMOptions cvar in order to customize Death Match the way you want
The first player that get the ammount of kills defined in g_DMFragLimit cvar will win the round.
To run Death Match on your server, simply set g_gametype to 8, and make sure the mapscripts are available for the maps in your cycle.
