[TF2] [Feature Request] Don't force truce during every boss fight

[TF2Wiki]

While at first truce during boss fights helped to complete contracts, over time it became more annoying than helpful. Original concept was to fight the boss but also being able to still damage enemies, which should return, as not everyone wants to fight the boss every time it spawns. Instead of forcing truce during every boss fight, give it a chance to occure, like 33/50% or some similiar percentage. This should keep the match more fresh, where players often just don't want to fight at all and wait for the boss to leave.

the problem with no truce is just merasmus imo, his problems include:

• has way too much health
• requires the entire server to focus on him to take him down (though not as bad as it was during scream fortress 2012)
• he locks the objective when he spawns, forcing the entire game to a halt for two minutes (in Ghost Fort, anyway)
• he spawns every minute because you killed him twice in 1 round
• truce allows engies to set up in any spot they want to and the enemy team cannot do anything about them until the truce is over

personally, just expand tf_halloween_allow_truce_during_boss_event to work on valve maps as well, there's no reason why it should only work on non-valve maps. hell, even allow players to vote if they want truces to happen when monoculus/merasmus spawns or not.

Merasmus spawns WAY too often. Since there is a dumb requirement to finish the round in order to complete the contract, then these games take FOREVER because Merasmus keeps respawning and pausing an already long game. Monoculus also spawns pretty often. Just reduce the number of times the boss can spawn to once per 3 minutes.

Do not remove the truce though. It was put in place for a reason. It should stay there.
