Default Patch: February 14th, miscellaneous improvements + bug fixes

================================================== ===============
February 14th, 2011

Modified mouse/keyboard toggling behavior to avoid unintended switches:
1) Pressing the "Turn Left" or "Turn Right" keys (default LeftArrow/RightArrow and J/L) switches to keyboard control
2) Moving the mouse (after clicking at least once since last Alt+Tab) switches to mouse control (the mouse will never enter a "grabbed" state or "idle into keyboard mode")
3) To completely disable keyboard control: Options -> Controls -> remove the bindings for "Turn Left" and "Turn Right" by clicking them and then pressing Backspace
4) To completely disable mouse control: Options -> Controls -> Mouse Navigation -> Disabled

Spectators can now visually determine which team an acid cloud belongs to (left team's acid is light green, right team's acid is dark green)

Added hidden config option to disable LevelUp/ChallengeComplete/Unlock graphical effects (to change, edit config/options.xml: generalOptions ... showLevelUpEffects)

Map Test Server improvements
* Increased download rate
* Cycles among custom maps (lobby removed)
* Grabs 5 latest maps (in addition to loadMap target) when restarting
* Reminds players to /rate and /suggest

Fixed a few bugs

Nice update, You really should still change the map test server to 12 max players though , not 14.

Nikon said everything I as going to. Nice update, nothing too major, just making it better. That's my kind of update. Although, when (if) more aces get implemented...I will prolly faint.

Oh it's no problem. I'll just demand Nobo promote me to Rank 1 where I belong.

Cool patch, especially the acid thing. Cheers.
