addentity <type>
Adds an entity of the specified type at the current camera position
and returns the index number of the new entity, so that the other
attributes can be set by editentity.

Stock strftime doesn't use capitalized "P", so for example on Windows
the wall clock didn't appear for 12h format. PM and AM are converted
to lowercase.
Zipped mod package files should be placed in "mods/" and need to contain
directory trees starting with "packages/" (or "config/"). The files from
a zip mod replace files, that exist in the original game install or add
new files.
The zip file should contain three special files:
desc.txt
Contains one line with a descriptive title for the package and ten
more optional lines with a detailed description.
preview.jpg
Preview picture for the mod. Must not exceed 128 kbytes. Aim for
512x512 pixel.
revision_n
Empty file. The "n" in the filename should be a valid integer number
instead, specifying the zip revision. Example "revision_123".
The settings menu shows the active mods in order of their priority - which
determines, which file to use, if several mod packages try to add or
substitute the same file. Zip files higher up in the list win.
addzipmod zipname
Add the zip package file "mods/zipname.zip" to the virtual file system.
Only files below the path "packages/" are added (and also files below
"config/", if zipname starts with "###"). If the size of the zip file
is below zipcachemaxsize, the whole zip file is cached in memory.
(Un-cached zip files are kept open at all time, so caching keeps the
number of simultaneously opened files lower.)
zipmodremove zipname
Removes one zip file from the virtual file system.
zipmodclear
Removes all zip files from the virtual file system.
zipmodlist [what]
Lists zip files in "mods/". By default, or if "what" is "all", all zips
are listed. If "what" is "active", only those zips, that are already in
use, are listed. If "what" is "inactive", only the unused zip files are
listed.
zipmodgetdesc zipfile
Reads and returns the first 11 lines from the file "desc.txt" in the
named zip file. The first line is supposed to contain a descriptive
title for the zip (for use in menus) and the next 10 lines should
contain a more detailed description (also for use in menus).
The command also unpacks "preview.jpg" from the zip and mounts it as a
temporary file under the name "packages/modpreviews/zipname.jpg".
zipmodgetfiles zipfile
Returns the list of files contained in a zip file.
zipmodgetrevision zipfile
Returns the revision number of the zip file. The number is supposed to
be part of a filename: "revision_n". If no such file is found in the zip
file, the return value is zero. The content of the revision file is not
relevant and a file size of zero is recommended.

1. Counting backward for gametimedisplay = 1 and forward for 2. The setting
added to HUD menu.
2. Changed name from clockdisplay to gimetimedisplay, in order to
distinguish clocks with system time and game time.
3. Added to wall clock options with UTC/GMT time and 12h format.
DOCREF clockcount clockdisplay gametimedisplay
LAN servers should be always visible, when user opens serverbrowser with
LAN servers only. And don't allow to switch from there to alternate views,
because for searchlan = 2 it doesn't make sense.
It's solution for missing hit/shot/etc. sounds:
1. decrease priority of ambient sounds to low, in order to hear more
non-ambient sounds with priority greater than low;
2. increase amount of sound channels to hear more sounds. Newer sound
cards on PC should be able to use more channels than only 32;
3. improve preset sound settings.
Remark: after these changes for default value of mapsoundrefresh (10)
break in playing ambient sounds, caused by playing sounds with greater
priority, isn't practically audible. The break is audible for greater
value, for example for mapsoundrefresh=1000.
Remarks:
1. Changed order in keycmds lets to keep alphabetical order in saved.cfg .
2. Earlier long information in docs about arguments of command could be
invisible for low aspect ratio (example: "weapon" command), now it's fixed.
getvarrange <what> <varname>
Gets range attribute <what> for builtin variable <varname>.
what
one of "min", "max" or "default"
varname
name of any builtin variable (integer or float)
DOCREF getvarrange
menuselectionpersistent
Enables persistent selections for the currently displayed menu and also
restores a previously saved selection. Probably most efficient inside
"menuinit". The position is restored during execution of this command,
so the menu entry has to already exist and the alias with the last
position has to be read from saved.cfg. In autmatically created menus
it may be necessary to execute the command with a short delay (see
examples in this commit).
DOCREF menuselectionpersistent
Lists all available skymaps. List is divided into skymaps provided by
the original install ("official") and custom skymaps located in the
profile directory.
textureslotusagelist <what>
Return a list of 256 numbers representing the number of uses for every
texture slot. If <what> is "onlygeometry", uses as map model skin do
not count. If <what> is "onlymodels", the uses in map geometry do not
count.
gettextureorigin <path>
Returns the location where the texture actually can be found. The
possibilities are:
"official": texture was found in the working directory, which
indicates an official texture.
"custom": texture was found in the profile directory, which means,
the texture is either manually installed or downloaded.
"package dir #x": texture was found in a mod directory.
"<file not found>": that.
textureslotbyname <texture path>
Returns the list of numbers of all texture slots which use that texture
file.
edittexturestack <floor|wall|ceiling> <texture slot number>
Puts a texture slot in a "last used" list up front. The first
parameter picks the list, the second parameter is the texture
slot number to be used for the next edit
getautomapconfig
Returns "1" if automapconfig is already enabled, "0" otherwise.
getmapsoundorigin <path>
Returns the location where the map sound file actually can be found. The
possibilities are:
"official": the sound file was found in the working directory, which
indicates an official mapsound.
"custom": the file was found in the profile directory, which means,
the mapsound is either manually installed or downloaded.
"package dir #x": mapsound was found in a mod directory.
"<file not found>": that.
mapsoundslotbyname <mapsound path>
Returns the list of numbers of all mapsound slots which use that texture
file.
getmapsoundlist
Returns a list of all *.wav and *.ogg files below packages/audio/ambient.

The command mapmodelattributes is now more appropriately named
"getmapmodelattributes", and the former "getmapmodelattributes" is now
named "listallmapmodelattributes".

Pressing the middle mouse button toggles a pin on the "closest entity"
selector. The HUD will indicate the lock by showing "pinned" instead of
"closest" entity. All actions, that would otherwise affect the closest
entity, will affect the pinned entity instead. Deleting the locked entity
will unlock it.
toggleclosestentpin
Toggles the pin on the "closest ent" selector. Bound to MOUSE3
by default.
