Intro
=========
InstaGib+ is an instant kill mod.  One shot, one kill! You get one weapon, 
infinite ammo and all items are removed from the map (except flags in CTF).
Instagib+ has full bot support and works fine in DM, Team DM and CTF.

Client Info:
=========
InstaGib+ is a server side only mod so there is no need to download any client 
files.  Although you can play single player with bots as they are fully
functional.

Server Info:
============
Download instagib+.zip
Extract the files to Your Quake3 Folder
Included in the zip file is a dedicated server batch and this readme.txt

Start a server using your normal server command line options and 
 +set fs_game instagibplus +set instagib <n> (n being 1 to 11)
 
If you would like to allow instagib mode voting only, turn off
g_AllowVote (g_AllowVote 0), and leave the new cvar g_AllowInstaVote On
(g_AllowInstaVote 1).  This disables the voting for kicking players, 
changing maps, gametype nextmap and starting warmups while still allowing
players to change the instagib mode.

Game Modes:
===========
InstaGib+ lets you use more than just the railgun, you can use any of the built 
in weapons!  Besides the normal weapon modes I have added two extras, rotate 
(mode 10) and promote (mode 11).
Rotate Mode starts all players with the machinegun, every time you get a kill 
you get the next weapon all the way up to the BFG then it rotates you back to 
the machinegun all over again.
Promote mode also starts all players with the machinegun and moves you up with 
every kill, but if you die you start back with the machinegun.

The Other Modes are as follows:
Mode			NUMBER
==============================
Gauntlet                1
Machine Gun             2
Shotgun		        3
Grenade Launcher        4
Rocket Launcher	        5
Lightning Gun           6
Railgun                 7 <--- default
Plasmagun               8
BFG                     9

Rotate                  10
Promote                 11


Configuring Promote Mode
=========================
You can customize what order players receive weapons in promote mode (mode 11)
by editing the file promote.config in your instagibplus directory.

Changing Modes:
===============
The game modes can be changed either by rcon/console or voting, if its allowed 
on the server.
If instagib voting is allowed on the server than you can vote to change the mode.  
\callvote instagib <n>, With <n> being the mode number between 1 and 11.
Once a mode has been changed all clients weapons will automatically change to 
the correct weapon for that mode.

This information is also available by typing \help at the console.
