v2.6.9 aka "The Big Beefy"

CHANGELOG - v2.6.9 aka "The Big Beefy"
- Lobbies are now limited to a max of 10 players.
- Inactive players will now be kicked after 5 minutes of inactivity. This is our first game setting that we're trying out Remote Configuration - so if you find this is buggy or needs to be tweaked we can make adjustments without requiring a new release.
- Barrel Box is now active in all modes, and is no longer unique to Competitive Mode.
- Window Shield now has its own toggle in the Admin menu, and is no longer unique to Competitive Mode.
- Those changes mean that, currently, Competitive Mode only separates voice channels between alive/dead and doesn't automatically toggle any other match setting.
- Concede Button toggle added to Admin menu. This allows the admin to enable or disable team-specific Concede Point buttons in each pit. Try them out. If the feature is buggy, Admins have the ability to keep them disabled in any game mode.
- 2022 NXL bunker versions of the Brick and Wing added. See our Medium blog (https://medium.com/giant-scam/creating-snapshot-vr-maps-with-the-2d-paintball-field-creator-b6841ac480fa) for mapping instructions for the 2dp Field Creator.
- 4 new layouts - see #arenas channel to see what's new.
- New banners from Hormesis and Play the Game Podcast added to the arena.

CHANGELOG - v2.6.8

- You now run 50% faster for 2.5 seconds off the break each point. This Break Boost is meant to give players a chance to get wider off the break.
- Timed Mode now has a mercy rule of 6 points
- Avatar icon cache adjusted to hopefully avoid the memory leak that was causing the crashes when more than 10 players were in a room
- Issue of avatars displaying incorrectly or being overlapped with the default blue/pink guy icon fixed
- Fab's new map PSP World Cup 2007 has been released
- Hormesis banner added to the banner rotation in the arena

World Cup 2021 Layout is Live!

That's it. Go practice!

- New Timed game mode now available. Team with the most points in 5 minutes of game time wins! This is the first iteration towards a fully featured Xball mode.

- XP and Level progression display added to Lobby
- Cosmetics added for VRML Season 1 Season and Tournament winners
- Round 1 warmup time increased from 10 to 20 seconds
