For all players have the same weapon, server admins can use

It looks like you would need
- appositely designed maps, with all spawn points placed symmetrically
- a
DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Mod]MOD that would:
-- force all clients to have
DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Graphic_options#Identify_target]identify target option turned
off. This would not show the name of who you are aiming at.
-- force all clients to have \cg_drawAttacker "0" (I never tried changing this, but disabling it should not show the info of who's attacking you on the upper right corner f the screen).
This way, score table would still identify each player name, but you will not know who you are facing during the game (oh, well, considering "last man standing" rules, one might check on the score table which players are already "dead", and guess that who he's currently facing is one of those that are still alive).
-- force all clients to have
DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Graphic_options#Force_player_model]force player model option turned
on. It should be noticed that currently, cg_forcemodel always shows "sarge/grism" model for all players in team-based modes, and shows you
your own model for all players in non-team-based mode. Hence, for
complete fairness one should also do something about that. Some mods have a variable like cg_enemymodel to choose the look of all your enemies, but it's not part of the main game (baseoa).
About map automatically change according to the numer of players, I fear a such feature is not yet in baseoa... who knows, maybe some
DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Servers#Server_managers]third-party tool -like BigBrotherBot- may allow a such thing? I don't know.
