Here are the rest of the tweaks and additions that accompany the update:

New Features
    * New Crossfire Map: Uncle Tully’s Funland
    * New bot spawn buttons for Uncle Tully’s Funland
    * Chickey Cantor now spawns in Uncle Tully’s Funland
    * New reserved slots for server admins
    * New Action Menu. The Action Menu is an in-game menu for accessing buttons to easily mute players or vote to kick them.
    * New animation for all Pros when they use jump pads
    * Added in a new random lines from Mickey Cantor during the course of the match
    * Reserved slots for players, settable by the server admin. Players are specified by SteamID in the HostileAccess.ini file; in a similar manner to how players are listed for banning. Adding an entry to the “VIPIDs” array (for example “VIPIDs=0×0110000104524662″) will cause that player to be a VIP on the server. When a VIP attempts to join a full server, the server will kick the most recently joined nonVIP player to make room for the joining VIP. If a server is full of VIPs, then any incoming VIPs will be rejected as normal. VIPs must still know the server password (if any) to gain entrance. Also, if a VIP is banned, the ban will take priority over VIP status. ALSO, the cooldown period which a player who has been votekicked must wait before rejoining a server has been made configurable. The default value of VoteKickCooldown=10 (minutes) can be modified in the HostileAcess.ini. Note that a player who has been votekicked off of a server must wait VoteKickCooldown*NumberOfVotekicks minutes before being allowed to rejoin, thus further discouraging repeat offenders.

Balance and Adjustments

    * Adjusted the way we calculate All Star Rating

    * Fixed high frame rates causing reduced initial movement speed
