Most Common Mutators

Most Common Mutators & What they do

WaitLimit.MutWaitLimit
Works in both UT2003 and UT2004.

This mutator places a limit on the time a server will wait for players to click ready if 'players must be ready' is enabled. If all players are not ready when the time limit is reached then the game is started anyway. This prevents players from disrupting a game by joining the server and then idling.

The amount of time to wait in seconds can be adjusted in WaitLimit.ini, the default being 45 seconds. There is no need to add the mutator to the ServerPackages list as it is completely server-side.

This mutator is on the UT2004 mutator whitelist and so a server running this mutator can still show up as a standard server in the UT2004 server browser.
