Force-Balance

• Admin can execute force-balance command
• Force-balance can happen between rounds
• Force-balance can happen if teams become too imbalanced

General

• Admin menu integration
• Force clients to accept their new team by blocking join team commands (detect reconnecting with clientprefs)
• RTV-style votescramble starting
• Admin commands for starting a scramble vote
• Allow clients to choose what team they’d prefer to be on (overrides auto-balance)
• Native bool gs_isBlocked(client) to see if the plugin is blocking someone from swapping teams
• (Experimental) Ask clients recently swapped if they want to rejoin their old team when someone reconnects and gets forced onto a team
• If enabled, block clients from changing to spectate if it will cause an imbalance
• If enabled, allow clients to choose a buddy to protect themselves from auto-balance and scramble.
• If enabled, block public voting when admins are present.
• If enabled, block clients from changing teams when mp_forceautoteam is enabled
• If enabled, select spectators during scramble and force-balance. (People who have recently connected, and people who have chosen spectator)

To use HLXCE Api plugin, you will need a database entry for your HLXCE database. For those anal about security, you can create a read-only user for the sourcemod connection to this database.

"hlxce"
   	{
        "driver"        "mysql"
        "host"            "localhost (or address if remote)"
        "database"        "hlstatsx (whatever you named the db)"
        "user"            "goerge (db user)"
        "pass"            "bestpluginsever (db pass)"
        "port"            "3306"
