From the wording, I assumed tf_powerup_mode 1 would enable it on any map.
Haven't tried it yet, though.

Does that mean the grappling hook can be enabled in non "Mannpower"
servers/maps....and if so, how do we enable it? (I can see some
interesting uses on certain custom maps).

ctf_gorge.

How exactly does one enabled Mannpower mode on the given maps.
I've tried both maps and I cannot see anything special. Is
there a command?
Thanks
