- Now when you kill somebody, their weapon and now all of that weapons ammunition will be available for the player to pick up.
- Internet servers list are automatically refreshed for the first time only (as this can take quite a long time, we will not force users to wait when returning from the game to the menu).
- Server option to enable ammo boxes in CTF a RW (the engineer feature is not used that much so players run out of ammo quite a lot. Ammo boxes are placed near to the flags).

- The name of the server is written in the TAB window
- The aim switch off/on had been added to General options (some players would like to be able use aim_key as a switch - as for example crouch has).
