Gamemode integrations would, as the name implies, integrate specific parts of a gamemode in the client UI.
Some mockups of how gamemodes would look like:

Babel

Show the name of the player who is holding the intel. The player's name would also match the color of their team.

Implementation

Using the IntelPickup packet.

Arena

Show the number of players who are still alive for each team.
Countdown should also be shown here when the round hasn't started, and then being replaced with the number of alive players instead when it starts.
Round ends would show the winning team only, or maybe making the other team be grayed out (and reset when the next round starts).

Implementation

Scraping the chat messages for countdown, using the regular player list for alive count.
Possibly using a protocol extension for countdown, if it gets decided.

Has been reported by multiple people, have been unable to reproduce it yet.

See xtreme8000/BetterSpades#154

Currently it gets hidden when opening chat to badly avoid overlapping with it.

Have an option to automatically send /login username password or /login password when joining a specific server (based on aos:// URL)

Happens because BS uses a fixed spacing for icons instead of based on spacing and padding

already fixed in upstream betterspades

The colour of the score name remains the same, normally there would've been an indication through the darkening of the text but now it doesn't

It would be great if you add chat log to copy text and the option to change spectator mode controls the V and mouse wheel button.
It would also be great if you put a width limit on the chat box since then people write very long texts that cover the whole screen and you can't read the whole message.

Seems to occur since the config.default.ini update, need to investigate further

Controls like V and middle mouse button are not currently customizable.

Add an option to change the chat size, and implement word wrapping.

Will require some manual mouse work.
