• Linux build compiled with the newer GCC/G++ 8

• Replaced most of the C style casts with C++ casts

• Increased engineer priority task to maintain sentries

• Increased medic priority task to buff and heal team mates

• Increased collect ammo priority to allow both engineers and snipers for defensive tasks

• Reduced sniper accuracy for each of the 5 bot skill settings

• Enhanced the dustbowl waypoints even further to remove lame sentry deployment areas
