    Been a while since an officiated update, so here's the latest changes and updates that seem relevant for general consumption. All of these are live on all servers bar TTT, which requires a bit more testing (but should go live a short while after the rest).

    • Chat command system has been updated and readded. In addition to being completely overhauled (both front end and back) new commands have been added to make things friendlier to players. More commands will be added over time as more systems come back online, this includes a new chat command system for AMen2. The new commands include-
      • /portal - This brings the server portal up.
      • /join, /steam, /group all link to the steam group
      • /website, /forums both link to this site.
    • Titles system has been updated and now loads in using the new player load system. Both the way they were loaded on client and server has been updated. Titles that should be available to the player are no longer loaded and instead are checked dynamically with actual logic.
    • Prop protection is now available as a component of BBase. Currently featured in RP08 and to be released for Stranded / BBuild, it's effectively a nice smooth prop protection that actually works with multiple systems. It's still going through some updates to work out minor kinks where possible, but the main feature is it covers everything you'd expect it to and a friend system that can be plugged easily into any gamemode.
    • AMen2 has been updated to accompany Linux if / when the move ever occurs.
    • Material override system has been added. Primarily used for development purposes, however you may see something up and coming that allows us to "HDify" maps.
    • Reserve slot system has been updated to actually work as it was loading off the old system.
    • Votemap can now be force called by admins via the command 'bb_forcevm'

    Things looking to change in the next few updates
    • Store actually returning both frontend and backend
    • Alongside this a new F1 menu with a BB Theme
    • And the pushing out of some Life systems (because a certain someone that said they'd work on them hasn't).
