You can shuffle now teams anytime by /callvote shuffle

If the callvote gets accepted it will result in a short timeout (5 secs) and than teams get mixed up new. In Beer Freezer case by score.

After the teams were shuffled you get this message:

please check once ur default callvote.txt in ur excessiveplus-folder. Callvote can do now pretty much anything. Examples u find in the callvote.txt

First of all u need to enable the callvote.txt

Just add to ur server.cfg /set xp_vote callvote.txt, as far as i know you can write it also in console with rcon.

Here you have the callvote.txt of beer, before anyone asks how it works:

/* Excessive Plus for Quake III Arena
 *      <a href="//www.excessiveplus.net">www.excessiveplus.net</a>
 *
 * Advanced callvote and referee commands
 *
 * Use "/set xp_vote callvote.txt" and/or "/set xp_referee callvote.txt" to
 * enable this file.

if ( $g_gametype >= GT_TEAM ) {
    shuffle {
        1 {
            empty,
            score, 2 {
                command = "teamBalance 2";
            }
        }
 
        description = "Balance the teams on the fly, without resetting the game score.";
    }
}
 
nextmap, rotate {
    command = "rotate";
 
    description = "Forces the next map in server rotation to load.";
}

The teambalance works in this case based on score, since i think it is better for freeze. As more score people have done as more sensefull the team become.

But for tdm i suggest this, based on frags per hour:

if ( $g_gametype >= GT_TEAM ) {
    shuffle {
        1 {
            empty,
            FPH, 1 {
                command = "teamBalance 1";
            }
            }
 
        description = "Balance the teams on the fly, without resetting the game score.";
    }
}

Also the new system has a new interface what commands are voteable. To look on servers what is voteable type /callvote. Than you see all commands which are voteable on a server. On servers who have enabled the callvote.txt it looks like this:

Beer just allows this 2 commands, but there can be many commands, also some just for refs available, depends how the serverowners does code the callvote.txt. Again, examples u find in the default callvote.txt u downloaded with e+.

Since i fear abuse of the shuffle callvote on beer I wanna introduce just one rule for now, more could follow: /callvote shuffle is just allowed if a team has at least 2 players more than the other team. Or if a team with one player more scores permanently and nobody switches the team by himself.

Have fun!
