fwiw perhaps its better to retain AC's for official releases, since otherwise cheaters update hacks and its no longer detected by the time the version comes out that leagues and 90% of publics will be using.
of course this only applies to AC updates that dont work with the official releases, and then theres the problem of testing for false positives etc..
I looked at the /pb_cvarval pb_sv_autoss and it gives a doesn't have a value set. BTW, this is the server I run. I look all over for the pb screenshots and nothing is there on the server. So I don't believe it would be that.

me and someone else had a strange problem today. I run 3.0.15 since this afternoon.
Someone was sitting in the tank and i couldn't hit him. It was caen, and the tank was before the last barrier. I was standing at the right side next to the mg and shot at the player in the tank, but invane... I saw the bullets hit, but i didnt make any damage to him (and i have hitsounds, i would have heard).
A different player had a similar problem on the same map (was on the other team) and he made a demo.
I have a look at his demo, and if its really a strange thing, i post it again.

Hit detection on mounted players is really really strange and always was. Your bullets might have been blocked somewhere at the vehicle where it doesn't look like it should be blocked, or you might have aimed not high enough? Unless it suddenly becomes impossible to hit a mounted player even when standing right on top of him, I wouldn't assume that this is a new bug.
i think the reason for this bug are the models. as far as i know, tanks are models, not just brushes with textures on it. same as other models like tank barriers, cps etc.
and guess what? this bug appears at tankbarriers, too.
i remember a clanwar when an allied engineer was planting dynamite at the barrier and i stood next to him. i wasted about 30 bullets on him without hit..
same at oasis the oasis commandpost. i couldn't gib a player with a whole smg-magazine.
is there a way to fix this?

They are in the .etwolf/pb/svss directory if server takes screenshots

Not a .15 bug, but it is an old bug that I heard that zinx would fix it (I saw him on a pub saying that, back on the 2.1 testing iirc), but like the b_tracers 2 from Rain, it got forgotten
When you get swapped on a SW rotation, in case you were an Engineer using a Rifle Grenade, you will spawn with a SMG by default.

admin has limited rifle grenades on you.
not a bug. it's server admin's decision.
it hapents in the time of war. i was the only engenier in my team. it hapends on deferent servers a few times. dont know if it is a bug, but it is annoying.
just want to mention an "unbeautyness" which has always been there, maybe you want to fix it. it's the keyboard setting for panzer. when you get level 4 and with it your machine gun, no matter what you do you can only switch between panzer and gun with the default key "3". every time you respawn on the same map you got level 4. then in the next map this phenomenon is fixed and the mg is on key "2" and the panzer on key "3".

I think this is actually a bug in ETMain? If you switch weapon from it and then back to it it should load the grenade like normal. It usually happens when you get killed while loading or just shooting a rifle nade, for me. I'll demo all my games from now in case it happens again but it really is like once every blue moon it happens.
