G'day to all the coders and modders and mappers and like that keep this community thriving! I have a (hopefully) small request, and something which I hope others would also make good use of.

My friends and I LAN more than we play online, and we've always lamented the lack of facilities to set up an actual auto-scored, winner-announced tournament in our LANs.

Ideally, such a mod/mutator would allow you to set up a list of maps and gametypes with points awarded to each player based on their position in each game.

For example:

Deathmatch - 1st place gets 10 points + the difference between first and second.
2nd gets 10 pts.
3rd gets 5.
etc.

Team Deathmatch - All winning players get 5 pts, with the number one player (on either team) awarded the difference between first and second.

etc.

Then at the end of the map list, an overall gold/silver/bronze is awarded with the results saved out into a text document.

Probably a big ask, but I desperately hope one of the coders here likes the idea and can see merit in it beyond our little LAN group :)

Thanks for reading!

If you look at my mod MapMixer, for UT2K4, you'll see it keeps session statistics. It wouldn't be a far jump to go from what I've done there to what you are asking.

When I finally get the new game and have played it for a while, I'll start working on MapMixer for UT3.

There's a screenshot of the Session Stats in the UT2K4 version on the site.
