Summary0001362: Separating compat_oldweaponswitch from affecting weapon raise
DescriptionCurrently compat_old_weapon_switch causes two things:
1. Use the old weapon pickup tables, so if you run over a plasma it will always switch to it
2. Weapons cannot be changed mid raise/lower

People have constantly complained how they want item 2 not bundled with item 1, and to fulfill their wishes, it probably should be split into two different cvars.

I try to avoid adding more compatflags, though this is a *really* common complaint, so I'm going to test a new flag out.

Can you update the patch to use the latest Zandronum changeset as base and write a line for zandronum-history.txt? Then I'll pull the patch.

I'd suggest using compat_weaponraise as the name. No need to have 'old' since compatflags imply old bugs anyway.
