## [v1.0]

#### [Friday, January 17th, 2025]

News:

Changes:

- You can also type /command in the in-game chat to get a list of available commands.

## [v0.10.0]

#### [Monday, December 30th, 2024]

#### [Counter-Strike 1.6 Server Changes]

Changes:

- Switched back from Health Refill to Ammo Refill.
- Made rocking the vote instant by removing the ten minute wait time.

Platinum [from 5000 to 7500 points]
Diamond [from 7500 to 10000 points]

Fixes:

Removals:

- Removed lots of unused assets like unplayed maps, unused models & textures.

Things we're currently working on:
