Introduction
Meanwhile...
In the distant future in a galaxy far, far way, an evil master mind that goes by the name El Muerte plans to take over the earth.
The villain has already built an army of warriors and has left his home planet to head for Earth.
El Muerte and his minions are too powerful for the average human. Earth's only chance for survival lies in the contenders of the Unreal Tournament. They are the only one that may have a chance against the contraptions made by this evil genius.

Every time you die a focus action is randomly chosen from the list. To increase the chance for a certain action to be taken just add duplicate entries. Action id -1 is also used as fall back.
| Action ID | Focus target |
-1 | pick a random player to focus |
0 | player that killed you |
1 | player with the highest score |
2 | flag/bomb carrier (CTF, DDOM) |
3 | flag base (CTF) |
4 | control points (DDOM) |
5 | power cores/nodes (ONS) |
6 | objective (AS) |
7 | mutant (Mutant) |
8 | bottom feeder (Mutant) |
