The state of the project

[Mikusch]

Hello,

a few months ago this repository was archived without any further explanation as to why there have been no updates for several months. I feel like that was the wrong move, and I am creating this post to give myself and everyone who has been following this project closure.

It should be no surprise to many that this plugin was very unstable and caused very frequent server crashes and all kinds of instability issues.
To put it lightly, the plugin code is very messy due to being worked on by both me and @FortyTwoFortyTwo at a time when neither of us had a good enough grasp of the Source Engine. A majority of the work was also done before the infamous TF2 code leak, which left us guessing and figuring out how to accomplish certain things through trial and error.

Over the plugin's long development period, this has created an unmaintainable code base that is difficult and annoying to work with, and as a result we have ceased development of the gamemode.

I do have plans to rewrite it in the future, but it is going to take a lot of time and effort that I simply cannot spare at the moment. I have begun rewriting portions of the friendly fire to release as a standalone plugin, but progress on that is very slow as well.

I appreciate everyone who supported this project or continued development of it. I hope that, in the future, I will be able to resurrect it.

Thanks,
Mikusch
