- Fixed grenade projectiles doing more damage than expected
So I checked, and instead of just reducing the rampup multiplier to make pipes do less damage, they just made them inconsistent again

I literally just finished my Target ID fix.
Also, I've always used F1-F4 to change my loadouts and it's respawned me immediately. Been very useful for forward spawns or respawning with full health/ammo when you're just hitting spawn instead of running to the cabinet. If you were on Loadout A and hit your keybind for loadout A, it would respawn you if in the spawn area -- allowing you to keep ubers or whatever you've got while being on the exact same loadout.
The last update broke this and this one didn't address it. Not sure if they intentionally broke it, but I'm not used to manually clicking on my loadouts or the supply cabinet anymore. Weird they're messing with mechanics that have been in the game for so long without keeping the old options in, but at least they fixed the targetID.

too bad, i liked having consistent damage rather than having 2 pipes do 99 damage.

It's my understanding that they just do less near the head and more near the feet. Still annoying when you two pipe a soldier and he lives with 4 HP and kills you

idk they couldve just decreased GL base damage by 10% and it'd be coooooool

I'm getting broken quakelive/simple textures (both of them, purple checkerboards everywhere).
Also, connecting to servers sometimes causes my game to crash, and other times to get stuck at sending client info.
Anybody else?
Anybody else for the sending client info?
Anecdotal evidence from both teams in scrim have successfully joined by joining a pub and then the servers in question.
Also: game randomly crashes.

Going off of that, if you guys rename your server's Sourcemod/Metamod files, people can join and play.

Merchant- Added Advance Option and ConVar to disable floating health icon (tf_hud_target_id_disable_floating_health)
Does this man if we disable it, it gets reverted to the wold target id health or what?

Yes. Seems like these changes are slowly creeping into the main game.

Noticed this too, will have to change class now to forward spawn :( It was sometimes buggy anyway though, I remember a number of times I'd have to hammer on it multiple times to get the respawn to happen.
Odd though because the advanced option to 'auto-respawn on loadout changes in respawn zones' still exists and is still enabled for me.
Is it only for, say Loadout A -> Loadout A? I think I wasn't getting respawns even with swapping loadouts (for demo I usually just swap between paintrain and bottle loadouts to switch spawns).

For all loadout changes. You cannot forward spawn by changing loadouts/items anymore. Only by changing class. HL forward spawns are nonexistent as it stands.
