Server 2 will be updated to OWP version 1.6.3 for testing this afternoon. Most of the settings from 1.5.4 are carried over but there are some new things and some tweaks.

Please let us know of any problems you encounter or suggestions for improving the set up.

Major changes:

Defense can now steal and destroy a downed bomb, ending the round in a victory. To destroy the bomb, you must press and hold your melee key. The destroy time is set to 15 seconds and the attackers are given a warning that their bomb is being destroyed. The defense could choose to simply move the bomb and drop it somewhere else. I believe that the bomb still shows on the attackers map when defense has possession. Needs to be verified in game.

Bomb sites can now be damaged and destroyed by the defense, ending the round in a loss for them. The damage is adjustable and right now it takes 3 frags directly on the site to destroy it. The attackers must still plant the bomb to destroy an objective.

There is a small explosives free zone around the bomb sites. If defense tries to place a clay or C4 too close to the objective, it wont plant and it returns to the planting players inventory. The distance is approximately 8 feet.

There is now a quick defuse option where the defuser, if short on time, can select from several wires to snip. If you pick the wrong one, the bomb detonates immediately, destroying the objective and the defuser.

Dynamic weapons attachments have been implemented. You may now, for instance, equip the ACOG or silencer for your rifle and remove or attach it at any time. This works for silencers on pistols as well. It makes sound when you do it but I'm not sure if the enemy can hear it. Press the use key to cycle through the options and when it gets to the attachment option, hold the key down till you hear the noise and see the animation then release it.

There is no more "Fog of War" in this version. It was removed in favor of a SOGmod style day/night cycle. This has not been set up yet so all maps will be running their original settings as they came from the map makers. Each map will get reviewed to see if it would benefit from the new day/night cycle before it gets implemented.

Other tweaks - We're testing these out so please provide feed back on how it effects game play:

Claymores, C4 and Bomb squad are only available to Spec Ops, Demo and Sniper classes.

Friendly tags only show up for approximately 50 feet. Enemy tags never show.

Friendly fire is back on for clays. The planter is not affected.

Rounds to win is back to 5, up from 4.

Weapons jams are on but set to a very low probability. Press the use key to cycle the options available and when it gets to Unjam, hold the key down.
