All this is a step in the redirection.

Looks like we can now use clanforge in game.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 - Updated to R9
                        Apr 08 2010 16:12:55 by Dentist
                        All Bad Company 2 servers have been updated to version R9 this  build includes a number of crash fixes, so we hope all servers will be  even more stable now.

The full change list is:-

• admin.say command implemented
• - the output currently looks a bit funky on the game client, like  so:    Player: [Server]:   but with the next game client it  will look like:     Server:


• admin.yell to squad has changed (you need to specify both team and  squad)
• squad numbering has changed - the "no squad" squad has ID 0, and  real squads are 1 and up.
• Autobalance improved, it shuffles people both during and between  rounds now, and does a better job. Note: There is currently no way to  turn it off
• mapList* commands reworked
• banList* commands reworked
• listPlayers command added
• admin.listPlayers command reworked (GUID, kills, deaths, ping and  score added)
• Players have non-PB GUIDs now (these are distinct from PB GUIDs)
• onChat event reworked
• now it specifies target player subset as well
• shows text before profanity filtering
• client-originated chat messages starting with "/" make it to the  server, and broadcast via onChat, but are not broadcast to other game  clients
• use "/!" if you want to be able to send commands to  your homemade rcon tools without showing the commands to other players


• player.onAuthenticated added (it's triggered when a player receives  GUID)
• player.onSquadChange, player.onTeamChange implemented
• Couple of crash fixes
• Support for server-side "region" setting (not yet used by the game  client)
• Ranked ON forces game-password OFF
• Ranked and PunkBuster settings can only be changed during server  startup
• A server is marked as "hardcore" either when Friendly Fire is  enabled, or when all the typical hardcore settings (hardcore killcam  minimap etc) have been flipped
• exposed number of rounds per maps in maplist.txt, and via the remote  admin commands

EDIT: Unfortunately R9 seems to have cause a few issues with a  number of remote admin tools including Live Control. We are currently  working on fixes for these issues.
