Class-specific changes:

Scout:
Caltrops and radar have been removed. Instead they have a buildable jump pad on +attack2. Jumppad is invincible - det it by double right-tapping. You can only carry one, similar to a detpack. They last 60 seconds before auto-detting. Any team can use them.
Players can only use a jump pad once every second, so they dont get multiple triggers.
Max conc speed after using the jumppad
Reduced conc time for Scout down to Medic level
Scouts now don't take fall damage.

Sniper:
Sniper rifle base damage has been reduced from 42 to 35
Radiotag duration reduced from 60 to 15 seconds.
AR damage down from 7 to 5.5

Soldier:
RPG damage radius increased slightly (from 108 to 125).
RPG reload time decreased from 1.0 to 0.9 seconds.
Nail grens tweaked a lot.
Soldier special now quickswitches between shotgun and RPG.

Demoman:
Blue pipe fuse timer dramatically decreased (from 2.5 to 1.1 seconds). Pipetrap explosion radius increased from 125 to 150.

Medic:
Right click now discards medpacks for teammates to use (thanks mirv). These take 10 cells to use and the medic slowly recharges cells over time. Medpacks last 5 seconds before disappearing so the person you are throwing to has to pick them up soon (you can't leave a supply for your defenders for example)

HWGuy:
New HW AC System! : Overheat removed (!), rof changed from 0.06-0.12 to 0.05-0.15. cof changed from 0.10-0.15 to 0.05-0.30.
New AC clamp system - hold right mouse to clamp, let go to unclamp. Also fires when you are clamping so you can hold right mouse to clamp + fire (you dont have to hold mouse1 and mouse2)
