An update to Team Fortress 2 has been released. The update will be applied automatically when you restart Team Fortress 2. The major changes include:
  • Scorchshot - Added a -35% self damage force penalty (Reduced blast jumping)
  • Vaccinator - Übercharge penalty no longer applies during setup time
  • Fixed a case where weapons could still be dropped in Mann vs. Machine
  • Fixed missing descriptions for the Powerhouse Contract
  • Fixed self blast jumping for non-Soldier classes. (i.e. Demo, Pyro and any other means of force from self damage. Soldier jumping was fixed in a previous patch)
  • Fixed weapon pickups resetting the Ullapool Caber
  • Fixed some weapons not displaying their attachments when dropped (Festives, Kritzkrieg, etc.)
  • Fixed missing freeze period, not resetting of player scores and not resetting map time when using mp_tournament
  • Fixed only showing friends' avatars when tf_hud_target_id_show_avatars is set to show everyone
  • Fixed Shotgun and SMG Killstreak kits not working on Decorated weaponsFixed an OS X crash related to Contracts

Ah, so mp_tournament was broken. I was getting inconsistent results when trying to use that and assumed I was doing something wrong, because, well, Source.

guesing tf_hud_target_id_show_avatars is a client side thing that isn't limited by the server?

(default value is 2, so if you want to see every avatar you're going to want to change this to 1)

Aw, I liked the scorch jumping as it was, you could give yourself some nice speedboosts.
Anyway, at the loadout screen at the Scorch it says "-35% self damage" in red letters. Why is that a bad thing if you aren't a masochrist?

I believe it's the same as the Detonators "-50% damage to self" meaning flares do more damage to the user if you were to use them on yourself to jump or whatnot. It's poorly worded.
