New cvars and commands
-------------------
"cl_hudfont"
- Change to vary the size of the saytext and voice menu text ( 0 = small, 1 = normal, 2 = big )
"mp_combinemglimits"
- Setting to 1 will combine the mg34 and mg42 class limits and count either class as being a "machinegunner". New limit is the sum of "mp_limitaxismg34" and "mp_limitaximg42", including negative numbers.
"mp_limitalliesbazooka"
"mp_limitaxispschreck"
"mp_limitbitpiat"
- Class limit cvars for the new bazooka classes
Mapinfo instructions
----------------------------
To ban classes with the mapinfo text files, you set a number that indicates the allowed classes. The number after the "alliesclasses" is the sum of the unique identifiers for each allowed class.
Example in mapinfodod_caen.txt.bak:
"spawn_bazookas" "0" //don't spawn bazookas on the ground
"alliesclasses" "29" //1 + 4 + 8 + 16 would represent - garand + thompson + greasegun + sniper
"axisclasses" "267" //1 + 2 + 8 + 256 would represent - K98 + K43 + MP44 + MG42
The classes are defined as:

Sten 2
Sniper 4
Bren 8
PIAT 16
