Q: What is Assassin Hunt?
A: Assassin Hunt is a mod developed by @Patta (mod board link), which sadly became dead.
The mod is pretty simple and extremely fun: you are an assassin in a town full of townsmen (bots) and your objective is a simple one: kill the other players.
Q: If there is already a mod, why did you made it a native gamemode?
A: Because the mod is dead, is very hard to find players to play it with. So by making it native compatible, people will be able to join the server and play the gamemode without downloading anything.
Q: So... What is the difference between this and native deathmatch?
A: The difference is that all players wears the same cloths as the townsmen and the weapons are hidden. In other words, you need to distinguish an assassin from a townsman, by analysing/observing the world around you (how they move, how they act). Also you need to act like a townsman, so you won't get detected by the other players.
Q: Are you the same guy that...
A: Yep, same guy.
Server info:
Server name: Assassin_Hunt_Gamemode
Location: EU - France
Slots: 16
Maps: 6 maps from Assassin Hunt mod (modified to make it native compatible)
Gamemode version: v1.1
How to play:
After joining the server, you will choose a team. Just choose one, it doesn't matter which one. Then you need to select a troop. Choose carefully because it represents what class of assassin you will be.
If you select archer/crossbowman, then you will spawn with a knife and a xbow with 10 bolts.
If you select infantry, then you will spawn with a knife and throwing knives.
If you choose horseman, then you will spawn with a dagger and a pistol with 10 bullets.
The equipment doesn't matter, just hit the 'Done' button and you will be able to spawn.
After spawning you will notice that you don't have any weapon. That is because they are 'hidden'. If you press the 'equip next weapon' button, your weapons will appear on you (you can also press the 'Equip Item 1/2/3/4' button). Now to hide the weapons, press the 'Sheath' button (preferably bind it on something close to your wasd keys, because you will use it frequently).
You can change your cloths by using the doors that are on the map (go to them and press 'f').
Most of the doors gives you random cloths, but there are some that give the same cloths each time (right now are only two: the one next to the blacksmith will give you blacksmith outfit and the one near the merchant will give you merchant outfit).
Q: What happens if I kill the townsmen?
A: You shouldn't kill the townsmen. But if you do, the marker system kicks in.
It works like this: each time you kill a townsman, you get +1 townsmen kills. If 15 seconds passed since your last townsman kill, your townsman kill count decreases by one. Then, after 15 seconds, it will decrease again by one and so on until it reaches 0. If you have more than 3 townsmen kills, then you will get marked (you will have a big arrow on top of your head, so other players will know that you are assassin and will kill you). The marker will disappear after your townsmen kills reaches 0.
Also the guards will be notified and will try to kill you until you are no longer marked.
Q: Yes
A: Did this question and its answer get interchanged?
Q: How can I change the map?
A: You can by polling to change the map. The first map in the list (map Ruins) represents the first assassin hunt map (AH map 1). The second map in the list represents the second ah map and so on. Note that there are only 6 maps, so map 'Nord Town' is the last one that can be polled.
Random info:
- the merchant and the blacksmith are 'special' bots, but they don't do anything (right now, will implement stuffs later)
- the townsmen can sometime swing their fist (there is 1 in 100 chances for this to happen... pretty small but it happens)
- pistol does 1 hit 1 kill
- throwing knives assassin class has the longest knife; it also deals the most damage
- you can't block with melee weapons
- there are no horses
- you can't equip guard's shields
- if you hit a guard (even kick or punch), you will alert them and they will not stop to try to kill you until you die
Tips:
1. Choose your face carefully. Strange faces are much easier to recognize than common ones.
2. Don't watch movies while playing. It will get you distracted and get you killed.
3. Don't choose black skin because the server is racist and there are no black townsmen.
4. Don't choose female character because all townsmen are... males.
5. Change your outfit after each kill or fight because you will sweat and the assassins will detect you by smell.
6. You can kill the blacksmith and the merchant and take their places.
7. If you see someone jumping or kicking, then that is 100% an assassin. Kill him!
8. Don't attack townsmen.
9. Learn how townsmen acts and copy them for 'prefect' disguise.

4. Entry points 54 - 57 are the spawnpoints for guards.
5. Entry point 60 must be added somewhere outside the town (make sure it is not visible to players; it is used by the code for temp storing stuffs)
6. The doors are normal doors (except the earth sally door and the viking keep sally door), with variations id as follows:
