ASC
ASC ( ATH Server Controller ) is an Add-On/ServerActor for UT servers, featuring client tools, admin tools, and advanced mod tools for matches.


ACE
ACS (Anti Cheat Engine) is a Servertool to protect the game against cheating.


Autokick
The Autokick is a Servertool that kicks automatic all Player who die too often in one Map/Match. The Kick includes a temporary ban until the next Map starts. On =COM= Servers it's set to 18 deaths.


Camping
The Camping Style is the Game Play we prefer on our Server, this Style includes most Time to stay in one Area. If you move do it carefully and stealthy or very fast and from point to point. Continuously moving, continuously jumping, try to shoot while you're on the run, is not Camping. The Camping Style is much more difficult to play then the R&G or Bunny Jump Style...


Chat
UT99 contains a Chat to "talk" to other players. Unreal Tournament is a Game with a Chat and not a Chat containing a Game... The Chat area is by default in the upper left corner of your HUD. Please use the Chat on the =COM= Server not too intensive, otherwise an Admin will ask you to take a break or he may mute you for indefinitely period. Constant use of a single Taunt can also lead to a mute. Admin decisions should not be discussed in game, use our Forum, not the Chat.


Cheat
To cheat or cheating means the use a Tool, Program, Code or manipulated File to create an advantage to the normal Players. A Cheat could allow you for example to see through walls or use a radar or a automatic aiming. Using a Cheat on =COM= Servers always lead to a permanent Ban and is strictly forbidden!

Crouch
You are able to let your Pawn crouch. By default your Pawn crouches by using the Key "c". As long as you hold "c" down your Pawn stay crouched. The =COM=Sniperrifle works best crouched. You also move slowly and more stealthily and you can't fall from edges if you stay crouched. The last reason to stay crouched: No one can shoot your Head away and earn two Points...

Back to Top


Elevator
Elevators or Lifts, most times a Platform to move you from one Level to another. At =COM= it's not a good idea to camp next to an Elevator exit waiting to kill players who use the Elevator. Admins will kick or ban you.

Back to Top


Elevator-Camping
At =COM= it's not a good idea to camp next to an Elevator exit area, waiting to kill players who use the Elevator. Admins will kick or maybe ban you.

Back to Top


Frag
Frag or kill is the same and is part of your score. A "Headshot" count 2 points.

Back to Top


Freestyle
Freestyle is a Gameplaystyle that needs a lot of hectic and mad jumping, running, crouching and x-locing. At our Gamerserver freestyle is not permitted! (see also R&G)

Back to Top


HUD
HUD = Heads Up Display. All Information about the Game, your Pawn and the Chat are shown in the HUD across your screen.

Back to Top


Hunting
Means to follow or to cut the way of a Player, who spawn or left his or your spot, to kill him. To chase Players is not a good idea because it's not permitted at =COM=.

Back to Top


Imagedrop / Ghosting
An easy way to make an imagedrop is to crouch though a Swirly and stay crouched, that leads to a Swirly over the Ground. At your side it looks like you stay in the Swirly and don't fall down. But to all other Players it looks like you left the Swirly, your image moves to the Ground. That's why it's called an Imagedrop. It's also possible to make an imagedrop by crouching "over" an edge. Using an Imagedrop is like Cheating. Admins will kick or ban you. An Imagedrop can also happen accidentally, please give the player a hint to adjust his position...

Map
Maps are the scenery you play in. We have indoor and outdoor Maps on our Server. Some Maps have a different scale, you may feel like a dwarf...

Back to Top


Punk
A Punk is a secret place that is not visible from the outside. For example behind a secret wall or within a rooftop. You can stay within a Punk without being seen. The wall or rooftop is lucid in one direction only. If you are within the Punk you can see outside. But from the outside you cannot see in. You can try to find a player who is hiding within a Punk by using the rangefinder (or zoom) on the =COM=Rifle. Or you may wait until he moves near to the edge where you may either see him or at least his rifle barrel.

Back to Top


Revenge
If you spawn and try to frag the Player who shot you before from close range - that's revenging and not permitted on =COM=. At least half the map away is OK. Move to a safer spot after a frag if you have been seen.

Back to Top


Run and Gun / R&G
Run and Gun means gameplay with a lot of running and switching places, it's not as fast and hectic as freestyle, R&G Players may stay some seconds in a spot. R&G is also not permitted on our Servers.

Back to Top


Skin
Your Pawn can use different clothes and you also can use different Models, collective Skin. Most Clans offer Guest Skins and develop their own Clan Skins for the Members. Many Sniper- and Camping-Servers support the Assassin Skins. One FAQ is: I made a skin, why can't I see it on your Server... It's simple: Cos the files are not on the server!

Back to Top


Spawning
You spawn if you enter the Game with your Pawn. Spawning means the moment you start to play active the Game. At our Server you have a Spawnprotection of about 7 sec. In this period you can't kill other Players and you can't be killed. The Spawnprotection is meant to find a Spot, don't use this time to get close to other Players. The spawning Player would have to move away from other Players at all times. If you try to shoot other Players while you spawn, or if you try to shoot Spawners you will loose health, if you don't stop shooting you will die.

Back to Top


Spawnkill
Spawnkilling is using the spawnprotection to kill other Players e.g. by staying next to them till the protection is over. Spawnkilling is forbidden. The spawning Player would have to move away from other Players at all times, otherwise Admins will kick you.

Back to Top


Swirly
Swirly ( Swirley, Swirlie ) is a Teleporter, it takes you from one place to another. The standard UT Teleporter is a blue, rotating Helix, but it can also look like e.g. a Cloud. On some Maps there are also invisible Teleporters. Do not camp next to a Swirly to get cheap Frags. Admins will kick or maybe ban you.

Swirly-camping
Do not camp next to a Swirly to get cheap Frags. Admins will kick or maybe ban you.

Back to Top


Teamspeak
Teamspeak is a software to communicate with other Players while you play. You need a Microphone or Headset on your computer. The Software connect you to the Teamspeak Server. =COM= use Teamspeak2!

Back to Top


UTDC
UTDC is a Servertool to protect the game against cheating.

Back to Top


Voice Pack(age)
Your Pawn also "has a Voice" to "say" some Taunts or Team Orders in the Game. As default you use the Key "v" in game to open the Speech Menu in the HUD. You can also set Keybindings in the Preference Menu. ( Options -> Preferences -> Input -> Speech Binder ) One FAQ is: I made a Voice Pack, why can't I hear it on your Server... It's simple: Cos the files are not on the server!

Back to Top


X-Loc
The X-Loc is your personal Teleporter, also called Translocator, by default Key 1. Shoot ( left Mousebutton / primary Fire ) the X-Loc disc to the Target you want to reach and translocate to the Place the disc is ( right Mousebutton / alternate Fire ).
