This should be made with some caution, but can be very interesting. Example: railgun is often considered to be overpowered in some maps with large areas, thus a server admin may want to remove it, or to replace it with a different weapon. Another example may be disabling the grappling hook, to be more fair while playing against bots, that do not use it (or in case its behavior is broken in some old mod). First, let's examine how to remove items.

Another example may be disabling the grappling hook, to be more fair while playing against bots, that do not use it (or in case its behavior is broken in some old mod). Disabling items is supported since the original Quake III Arena game (thus, it should work with most mods, too), while replacing items feature has been added by OpenArena 0.8.8 (thus, it does not work with any mod based upon previous gamecode). Note: this page is about preventing certain items from spawning in the map or substituting them in "standard" gamemodes. If you wish to change the weapons available for Elimination/CTF Elimination/Last Man Standing modes (or in other modes when g_elimination feature is active), you have to use specific Elimination variables instead: see Elimination#CVARs. Note 2: Also, one thing is to replace/disable an item class to try a different gameplay, and another thing is to do so because it represents an important issue with the map. If you believe that there is something bad with Official OpenArena maps (see Maps page), including items placement, feel free to use the forum to tell your suggestions. OpenArena Team may update the map with your suggestions (or another solution), with a later OpenArena release/patch. First, let's examine how to remove items.
