Players now have the option to add a 'Skill Restriction' flag to rooms they create. The 'Novice' option will prevent players level 20 or over from joining. The 'Expert' option will prevent players under level 20 from joining.
Hopefully this allows both groups to play matches at a level they prefer.
(Note: this replaces the 'Room Type' option from before, which was confusing and didn't have much functionality besides limiting which options were available for basic rooms).
Other changes:
Fixed throw speed being affected by slow-motion
Fixed throw being overall weaker in 6.1 than it was in previous versions
Fixed bots aiming too low, b/c they were using the wrong speed calculation (introduced in 6.1)
Changed homing ball behavior. It will generally home much stronger now, even at high throw speeds. However once it passes by a target player, it won't do a mid-air turn as well. So it's both more accurate but also more straightforward to dodge if timed correctly.
NumLives value (in custom game modes) now works for PvE bots
