== New Feature ==

1. Updated Artificial Intelegence

NPC and bot AI hase been updated, now these player can use both dark & light side together.
There is no more force based side, it is removed in this mod.
You can try these dual-force bot that added in this mod:
Kate_walker : Dual-Force level 4 (QUAD MODE / Super Jedi?)
Twilek and Zabrak : Dual-Force level 3 (Jedi Master)
Jedi_Master and Young_Tavion : Dual-Force level 2 (Jedi Knight)
Romeo and Keldor : Dual-Force level 1 (Padawan)

Also, you can try the dual-force npc : Nico_Collard, type "npc spawn nico_collard" at the console.
These npc designed for multiplayer only, an assassin npc used for trap killer.

How to play?
-first in main menu type "sv_maxclients 12" to create game with 12 player.
-type "devmap <map_name>" example = "devmap mp/ffa3" to enter a maps.
-after entering the maps, type "bot_minplayers 12" to automatically added random bot.
-type "timelimit 30" to set the timer duration, when the game will be end.
-type "fraglimit 90" to set the kill limit, how many kill required to win the game.
-after all bot entered the maps, spawn the npc killer by type "npc spawn nico_collard"
-spawn the npc as many as you like at any spawn point, these npc will try to kill bot and you.
-avoid being killed by these npc or your score will be cutted off!
-fun! can you reach the fraglimit before the time is end?

2. New weapon : NOGHRI STICK

In the previous mod, you already get tusken rifle, and now you get new weapon again : the noghri stick.
So that after i add this noghri stick, you have total of 18 weapon to be choosen!

About the noghri stick :
This stick weapon shots a green poison smoke that drain health.
Primary attack : single poison-smoke missile.
Secondary attack : spread the poison-smoke amount until 5 missile (like bowcaster)
Ammo used : ammo powercell, 2 ammo for primary and 4 ammo for secondary shot.
Tip : to avoid being poisoned, you can push away the smoke projectile with force push.

3. Quad Mode Fire Shooter

Player in quad mode when switching to weapon melee and press attack, will release fire missile from each hand,
Note that you can do flame thrower also with weapon melee + force lightning level 3,
but this force based attack have decent range, while this quad mode fire-shooter launch the fire as missile.

5. Kate Walker bot update

This bot is the logo of dark force mod, kate_walker is invisible, in this version she will use lot feature :
jetpack, cloaking body, infinite ammo, infinite force, quad mode, full force light/dark side, dual saber (sword of earth
and mightiness scepter), and shielded body to deflect blaster. This bot can flag to godmode herself.
Note that this bot not to be fight as she can't die, but it just for example of nightmare bot.

5. Updating effect

Quad mode has new aura effect that is more attractive, this effect will now play the trail also.
I get request to remove the glowing effect from sword of earth, allright then, in this version, i already remove
the glow effect (i know the effect are disturbing the view), i replace the glow effect into a nice particle effect.

6. Force Absorb rules

Originally player who lightning at people with force absorb on, cannot do anything until the absorb end,
but now the rule changed, just keep shot your lightning at your absorbed enemy, because force absorb will drain
the force as much as damage was taken, so if your enemies run out of force, he will take damage from your lightning,
it just means, who have the strong and much force power will win the battle, however if you have higher level of force
absorb it will reduce the drained amount (i want to be fair)
You cannot escape from grip using absorb, you must push the enemies. Unless you started the absorb first before being gripped.
Player that already activating force absorb cannot be mind-tricked, so if you facing light-side jedi, just activate the
absorb to avoid being mind-tricked rather than use force seeing.

7. Expanded Saber style to level 7 for single saber

If you are using one saber, go check your saber style cycle,
you already get 7 style : fast->medium->strong->desann->tavion->dual->staff.

8. Force lightning throw effect

Like duel between Palpatine and Master Windu,
In this mod when you win the force battle using force lightning, your enemies will be throwed...far away.

9. Force Speed update

Previously, force speed only speed-up your move at one setting for all force level: 70% than normal.
In this mod, when player activating force speed their move will be multiplied based on their force level :
force speed level 1 - move 50 % faster than normal
force speed level 2 - move 70 % faster than normal
force speed level 3 - move 100 % faster than normal

10. Miscelanous update

Effect for damaged armor is now same as single player game, create an blue shield effect, and no longer create
green spehere effect as we see before.

Please note that from this version, shieldhit powerups is no longer available, this magnetic shield already mixed
with the battlesuit powerups, so to get shield-blaster just use the battlesuit, the shieldhit itself reserved for
force heal sound effect, you will notice your player saying "ahh i feel better", like singleplayer game.

In previous mod, some people think god mode is not work with bryar pistol, and that is not true.
Previously the bryar pistol flagged the damage as DAMAGE_NO_PROTECTION that means kill god mode, armor, everything.
But okay, in this version i have updated the godmode to be able protect player from damage no protection.

About the mess-up third person of saber, it is not officialy supported anyway, email me if you have the correct code for this.
As for me using third person saber only for saber throw guiding.

Big player model is one of dark force mod fature and cannot be removed. If you think your body block your view,
type "cg_thirdPersonVertOffset 30" at the console to increase the crosshair and type "reset cg_thirdPersonVertOffset"
to restore it back to normal.

Saber length for saber of ice and saber of wind reduced a little from 90 to 70, because too long saber looks ugly when
we see it from far away, for example bot zabrak and twilek that use this saber will looks unbalance between the saber
length and the body itself.

Force jump level 0 is now supported :-)
You want to be mercenary that can't jump high?
You can disable your force jump at the force selection menu screen.
Previously player are not allowed to have level 0 of force jump, minimum is level 1.
In this mod there is no more free force for jump.
