This update includes advanced admin permissions for dedicated servers which are needed for the upcoming remote admin panel. It also adds "MOD" tags to names on the scoreboard for any players that manage the dedicated server and have admin powers. This allows players to know who manages the server and whether or not someone is legitimately an admin of that dedicated server. There are no admins in user-created servers as the host already has a special icon in place of their ping and fully controls the room. There is also a "DLC" tag next to names on the scoreboard if a player is the creator of a custom map being played.

The update fixes an issue with text wrapping on the right side of the screen for player names or other floating game mode text. This was due to the custom font changes in the previous update when adding support for Unicode characters. Another issue was fixed for dedicated servers that prevented the "score" from being reported to the player listings in the Steam Server Browser.

Some extra data has been added to the internal stats system as well for the upcoming stats and rankings. This will allow us to diagnose any issues with stats not reporting correctly before officially logging them via our website. A few permissions were also updated on dedicated servers for the TaskForceTV service which will live stream competitive matches from the upcoming integrated ladder system.


Note that you can view all dedicated servers in Steam without booting your game by going to View > Servers. You will also want to set the game to Task Force in the server filters. This server browser can be used to view player counts, current map, server ping, and the player listings and scores. You can even connect directly to a dedicated server from this interface.
