[ GAMEPLAY ]
- Adjusted the threshold at which death notice displays attacker as "flashed".
- Explosions will now more reliably throw weapons around even if multiple weapons are dropped on top of each other.
- During warmup, weapons will no longer drop on the ground when changing teams.
- During warmup, changing teams now has a two second cooldown.
- Added server settings controlling which items drop on the ground during warmup period: mp_warmup_items_drop_policy, mp_warmup_items_nocost, mp_warmup_items_nocount_policy. Community servers that run with free non-droppable weapons during warmup can set these settings as follows: mp_warmup_items_drop_policy 0, mp_warmup_items_nocost 1, mp_warmup_items_nocount_policy 251.
- Give command will now always drop the held weapon if the given weapon needs an empty primary/secondary weapon slot to be used. For legacy behaviour, which would drop the new weapon on the ground, developers can use "-keep_gear" flag, e.g. give weapon_awp -keep_gear
