Saboteur

These mods may or may not be running on the server. There are NO 3rd party voice packs or skins of any kind on this server.

Zoom with ANY Weapon - FOV
This is a key bind.   CatchersCTF Servers have the user modifiable Field Of View (FOV) settings enabled.   UT's default FOV setting is 90 degrees.   This can be set from the console (the tilda ~ screen) with this command "fov 90".   By modifying this setting you can effectively zoom in with any weapon (exactly like you can with the sniper rifle) - "fov 15".   You can also use it to see more of the area around you - "fov 180".   When these commands are properly bound to a key, you can create an on demand zoom key or peak key (or both).
When in the console - this command will make the Z key into a ZOOM key
set input z fov 15 | onrelease fov 90
When in the console - this command will make the P key into a PEAK key
set input p fov 180 | onrelease fov 90

Boden Toys (Currently running a beta version)

These mutators do a lot of different things.   Currently, KeepItClean, Head Shot Ammo, Sniper Bounty, and Map Config are enabled.   Head Shot Ammo will reward you with 3 bullets. Sniper Bounty will give you 2 points, 20 health, and 5 bullets (kill those snipers!). Map Config's parameters will change, as my mood changes..  This version of Boden Toys may not be as current as the version running on the server, as I am occasionally running beta test versions of Boden Toys on the server.

The version of KeepItClean that is currently running on the servers is a beta version. It has the following additional features.

It will report Player Name changes that happen while connected to the server.

It has a new language parser that ignores anything except the letters A-Z.   This may lead to a few more false postives, but if it will get people to fight with UT weapons, instead of words, it's worth it.

After the third language infraction a players ability to chat will be taken away for 60 seconds. For every additional language infraction in the game, the players chat ability will be removed for another 60 seconds.

It allows users to send private messages to individual users. To send a private message to another user, use your normal chat message key (T for everyone, R for team) and prefix your message text with "TO ", the player name, then a colon ":".   Then the message text.

TO [CTCR]TheCatcher:Stop chatting and get our flag back!

You can also use an asterick "*" in the player name to specify that it should match all names that match up to the location of the asterick.   Note: this is not a WILD CARD Asterick, it just termintates the name comparison at the location fo the asterick.   The following example will send a message to everyone on the server whose name starts with [CTCR].

TO [CTCR]*:If we had real lives we wouldn't be able to frag anymore!

To send another private message to the last player (or players) you sent your last private message too, simply start your message text with an ampersand "&".

&Furthormore, we wouldn't be able to ride around on Redeemers!

To privately respond to the player that sent you your last private message, simply start your message text with an LESS THAN SIGN "<".

<Yeah, but then we would have to talk to real people!

StrangeLove

This mutator enables you to ride the Redeemer.   This is one of the most requested mutators on the server.   When ALT-Firing the Redeemer, instead of just being able to guide the Redeemer to its final destination you will also be drug along with it.   If you are still on it when it finally blows up - you will obviously be killed, so be sure to jump off by ALT_Firing again - a safe distance away from it's impact site.

With a little practice (and a decent ping) you will be able to pick up health (and other items) and (map permitting) even pickup and capture the flag - without ever jumping off the Redeemer.

Matrix Moves (Beta 4)

This mutator enables you to run up walls, jump higher, do cartwheels(?) and hang in mid-air, like in the movie The Matrix.   This takes a little practice to get right. It only works on walls that are completely vertical, not walls that are on a slight angle. It doesn't work for any Custom player models or for the Skaarj, and the Bonus Pack 4 player models.   To run up a wall, look up towards the top of the wall while approaching the wall.   When you reach the wall dodge forward (double tap the forward key), but keep walking / running (as if you were going to go right through the wall).   The Matrix Moves mutator will then kick in and you will be walking / running up the wall.   To leave the wall - jump - you will then do a backflip off the wall.   You can also run right or left while on the wall.   There is a time limit for the vertical movement, when that limit is reached, you will begin to fall back down the face of the wall.

To Matrix Jump (jump higher) - just jump again while still in the air from your last jump.   You can also jump higher by jumping from a crouched position.

To Hang in Mid-Air (and be able to shoot opponents while hanging there) - just press and hold crouch while flying through the air.

To do Cartwheels - just dodge. To Dodge, the dodge checkbox must be selected in the setup menus and 2 straff commands must be entered in quick succession.

With a little practice, you will learn just how much of an angle you can attempt the Matrix Move with and potentially use it to get to places that were previously reservered for access only via the relocator, or jump boots.

When falling, it is possible to avoid fall damage by either dodging or perfoming a matrix jump, just before you hit.

When the Speed Relic (or the Strength Relic) is used with the Jump Boots and Matrix Moves you can get just about anywhere on a map.

CCProtector - Spawn Protection

When you first spawn - you will be invulnerable for about 5 seconds, after that you will remain invulnerable for about 20 seconds, or until you pick up, fire, or change weapons.   There is no user interaction required for this mod.   It will help to protect you from spawn killers.

Jailbreak Release Switch Indicator

This mutator hi-lites all the Jailbreak III release switches for the team jails.

Fat Boy

The more kills you get the fatter you get.   The easier it is to see you, the more obvious of a target you are.   RUN!

Bonus Pack Relics

These are documented in the information that came in the Bonus Pack.   Currently the Revenge Relic is not being used - but this will change.   Reqork gave me a suggestion of binding a key to the SUICIDE command for use with the Revenge Relic.

AntiShockHo

This mutator will kill anyone who does a taunt within 4 seconds of firing the Shock Rifle.   This mutator works by changing all the Shockrifles in the game to AntiShockRifles.
It also changes all of your keybinds from

"GETWEAPON SHOCKRIFLE"
to
"getweapon AntiShockRifle | getweapon ShockRifle".

It does NOT tolerate extra characters or spaces in the orignal key bind.
So if you have a key bound to

"GETWEAPON SHOCKRIFLE"

that contains some extra characters or spaces - you may find that your Shock Rifle keybind stops working.   It can be fixed by removing the extra characters or spaces.

KickIdlers

When the server is full, this mutator will kick people who haven't done anything for 5 minutes.   When the server isn't full it will kick people who haven't done anything for 5 minutes, if a player issues the "Mutate KickIdlers" command.   This mutator supports the following commands:
Mutate ShowSlackers - Shows anyone who has been idle for at least 2 1/2 minutes.
Mutate ShowIdlers - Shows anyone who will be kicked if the "Mutate KickIdlers" command is used.
Mutate KickIdlers - Kicks anyone who has been idle for 5 minutes or more.
KickIdlers will NEVER kick a Flag Carrier or an Admin.
