Input and Camera Control
Before changing the controls, one first has to realise, there's several camera states, as listed below.
| Camera State | Description |
| Editmode | The editmode camera state is entered by entering editmode. |
| First Person | the first person state is used when the player is not in third person, nor doing any of the other stuff. |
| Prone | Prone is entered when a player attempts to zoom while not in posession of a rifle. |
| Snipe | Snipe is entered when a player attempts to zoom while posessing a rifle. |
| Spectator | The spectator state is used when a player is spectating. |
| Third Person | The third person camera state is used when a player is not in first person mode |
Editmode
- editmouse 0 0 2

- editfov 1 120 360
- Sets the FOV, a high FOV means more can be seen at once, a lower FOV means less can be seen at once.
- editdeadzone 0 10 100

gamemodes and mutators
Below is a table of gamemodes and mutators. Mutators is simply a value that can define special bitwise game properties, gamemodes define which mutators are available, and what other game features are active.
eg, giving a game a mutator value of 131 means team, instagib and no items will be active.
Gamemodes and mutators are set by typing /mode G M, and then followed by a /map N. G stands for the gamemode ID, M the total if the mutators you want, added together, and N being a map name. Like for the above example /mode 4 131;map refuge.
| Bit wise value | Description |
| 1 | Team - 2 teams are present in the match |
| 2 | Instagib - Your spawn weapon by default is the rifle, you have 1 HP |
| 4 | Duel |
| 8 | Progressive - Progressive capturing of linked bases, think UT. |
| 16 | Multi-Sided - Depends on team being active, it'll turn the match into a 4 team match |
| 32 | Last Man standing |
| 64 | Mayhem - During a ctf/stf match, you spawn at flags/base that are not yours |
| 128 | No Items - instagib depends on this, this keeps Weapons and the like from spawning. |
Below is the table for gamemode information. with the mutator boxes, N means NOT available, C means compulsory, or forced, O means optional.
| Gamemode | Mode name | Description | Team | Instagib | Duel | Progressive | Multi-Sided | Last Man Standing | Mayhem | No items |
| 0 | Demo | Plays back recorded demos | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | N |
| 1 | Lobby | The default mode, simply, a mode to say hi and explore maps with | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | C |
| 2 | Editmode | Allows you to edit maps, whether this be by yourself, or cooperatively with others | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | N |
| 3 | Mission | Play a Mission Cooperatively or alone. Not implemented yet! | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | N |
| 4 | Deathmatch | You fight, and you shoot that guy's brains out, simple. | O | O | O | N | O | O | N | O |
| 5 | Secure the Flag (StF) | The flags act as bases and take several seconds to claim ownership of. You then gain points. Whoever claims ALL the flags or has the most points at the end of a match, wins. |
C | O | N | O | O | N | O | O |
| 6 | Capture the Flag (CtF) | Each team has a flag, obviously the idea is to capture the flag of the enemy teams as many times as possible. | C | O | N | O | O | N | O | O |
Editmode
Please see the editing section for more information on manipulating the values of entities and linking them. But first, you must know which of the entities are game specific.
| Type | Attribute 1 | Attribute 2 | Attribute 3 | Attribute 4 | Attribute 5 |
| weapon | Weapon | Ammunition | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| teleport | Yaw | Pitch | Bonus Velocity | N/A | N/A |
| obsoleted | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| trigger | Related Script | Activate What | Activation Method | Reset Time | N/A |
| pusher | Z-push | Y-push | X-push | N/A | N/A |
| flag | Direction | Team | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| checkpoint | Index | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| camera | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| waypoint | Crouch | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| announber | Max Radius | Min Radius | Volume | N/A | N/A |
| connection | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
One of the BIG features of BF is that you can link entities together to execute a chain of effects. Like for example, connecting a sound to a pusher so it plays the sound when activated, or even particles to produce a nice little effect. Here's a nice little organised list of what entities can link with what. Keep in mind, not ALL relationships as both ways, as you can see here. Click here if you want to see a video tutorial.
