Sven Co-op (usually abbreviated as SC) is a cooperative game multiplayer modification for the famous first-person shooter game Half-Life, where players must work together against AI controlled enemies (NPCs), solve puzzles and complete other objectives (usually specified in a MOTD) as a team.
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
New features:
· Border-less window mode -- enable this with r_borderless 1 (also in advanced options).
· Extra features for donors and staff is now received on-line, so new donors can enjoy our thank you features much sooner.
· HTTP connectivity to our game API server is required.
· If the on-line database is unavailable to the game server the hard-coded list in the server binaries is used instead. Only donors after release will be unable to get their extra features in this situation.
· Linux server binary -- 100% native!
· Fixed func_rotating visually stopping after it has rotated beyond 32,767 degrees.
· Maps will need to have resource file names in the correct case or the Linux server will not find them and crash.
· New map Quarter: A defensive map with multiple stages.
· Player spawn points are now selected at random (from those that are active) with no spawn-fragging.
Code changes:
Core:
· Added obey trigger mode property to func_train.
· Added entity alias trigger_create_entity for entity trigger_createentity.
· Added ignore tiny monsters property to trigger_* entities, to ignore insects, hornets, and other very small monsters activating triggers.
· All item_ entities use a specific hull size very close to the default model size rather than being too big, (mostly) fixes items disappearing inside walls.
· Blood splat scale reduced.
Cheat commands:
· All unsuccessful cheat commands are now logged on the server as warnings.
· If sv_cheats is 2 only server administrators can use cheat commands. Designed for map authors to test their map with others in a controlled way. Players can always check who cheats are available to if they care with the mapinfo command.
· NEW: healme heals your health to the map defined limit.
· NEW: chargeme charges your HEV battery to the map defined limit.
· reviveme can no longer be used if you're alive.
· NEW: trigger remotely trigger an entity (first parameter is the entity name, second optional parameter passes a numeric value to the entity).
Client commands:
· All commands are now case insensitive.
· All commands with a repeat delay now share the same reset timer, reset in 4 seconds, and shows the exact time left to 1 decimal point.
· All commands can be logged on the server by setting CVAR sv_log_client_commands to 1, though this can be quite spammy.
· grenade and stuck can't be used while the player is a Barnacle victim.
· grenade now executes npc_findcover automatically, so a dual-bind is not required.
· mapinfo formatting improved, also shows who can use cheats (off, on, or administrators only).
· medic now makes a strangle sound instead of a medic call for players that are Barnacle victims.
· NEW: myinfo displays your target name and model, this will be expanded to show more properties about you in the future.
· NEW: stuck moves players into free space should they become stuck in a wall or anything else solid (limited to 48 units, alias unstuck).
· submitid no longer checks for a repeat delay if the player can't use the command anyway.
· Client will show an error message if the game is NOT using the OpenGL renderer.
· CVAR mp_telefrag is now writable by maps (configuration and trigger_setcvar).
· Default maximum velocity increased from 2,000 units/second to 4,096 units/second.
· Default maximum viewing distance increased from 8,192 units to 32,768 units.
· Default setting for detail textures is now enabled.
· Default skill level now 1.
· Fixed a ton of possible crashes/freezes caused by buffer overflows, memory leaks, and uninitialized memory across the entire game. Oh the joy of many programmers over the years ...
· Fixed administrator list file requiring a new line after the last entry in the list.
· Fixed crash during gun fire if players had mp_decals set to 0.
· Fixed crash if the map voting list exceeded the stack size (moved to heap).
· Fixed env_blood shooting white particles when red blood was specified.
· Fixed func_tank eye positions, so it will work properly as the tank rotates.
· Fixed func_train dealing crush damage every frame.
· Fixed maps with names longer than 23 characters causing a buffer overrun (32 characters is still the limit as dictated by the GoldSrc engine).
· Fixed momentary_rot_button not obeying a master entity.
· Fixed monster_barnacle having inconsistent tongue lengths when multiple Barnacles grab the same victim.
· Fixed monster_barnacle not always releasing players during a trigger_respawn.
· Fixed monster_barnacle possible crash with the prey entity referencing.
· Fixed monster_barnacle victims rising infinitely if they end up above the Barnacle (often by multiple barnacles grabbing the same victim, or the victim walking on top of a Barnacle).
· Fixed server lag from players having their donor/staff/administrator levels looked up every time they spawn or use a donor feature.
· Fixed squadmaker possible crash with the render override.
· Fixed squadmaker entities with names not starting automatically when the start on flag is defined.
· Fixed trigger_condition comparing strings with non-strings.
· Fixed trigger_changevalue not setting hull sizes correctly (passes new size to the engine).

· Skill configuration will no longer print on map load, unless developer is at least 2.
Spawn point handling:
· Spawn points are now chosen at random from any active point.
· Collision detection to prevent spawn-fragging.
· Only 1 type of spawn point entity will be used, depending on what is active at the time: _deathmatch then _dm2
· If no _deathmatch or _dm2 spawn point can be used, a _coop or _start point is used.
· If none of the spawn points can be used, players are made to wait until one is available.
· trigger_changemodel now pre-caches the model it needs.
