v1.3.3

1.3.3 has some minor patches:

• presetBuddyColors setting to set which colors the ADD BUDDY button cycles trough
• highPrecBlindTest status is now more obvious when the map ends, there is also a console command to check it: plus.testStatus

Buddy color update!

You can now assign different colors to buddies by clicking the ADD BUDDY button on the scoreboard repeatedly. It cycles between 4 different colors, or if the SHIFT key is pressed it assigns random colors.

Another way to assign colors to buddies is to use the plus.buddyColor console command. You can specify colors in #RRGGBB, #RGB formats or a webcolor name.

Some examples:

• Set player chicken to pink: plus.buddycolor chicken pink
• After adding yourself as a buddy you can set your own color too: plus.buddycolor yournick green
• Don't forget to use quotes if the nickname has spaces: plus.buddycolor "name with spaces" #ADD8E6

You can also change the buddy colors in bf42plus.ini in the [buddycolors] section.

Bugfixes:

• Fix dead players showing as alive snipers after connecting to a server
• Fix broken playernames breaking the middle kill message

Improvements:

• Nametags are lowered when u get close to other players so you can see it. Can be disabled by adjusting lowerNametags
• game.showFPS, game.showStats, etc screens are adjusted if you are using a different sized font, the font color is now yellow for better readability and can be changed with debugTextColor setting
• Yellow server messages are immediatedly copied to the console so one isn't lost if it is overwritten by another
