An arguably better net-code was put into Halo: Custom Edition as well. It has noticeably reduced lagging for some, but for others it made it worse. Also, a Rules feature can be viewed by pressing the F2 button (with default settings). It displays all of the specifics for the game-type currently being played in the server. | An arguably better net-code was put into Halo: Custom Edition as well.

In addition to the Rules feature, pressing F3 (by default) will display the name of all allied players above their respective green arrows, so long as friend indicators are enabled in the gametype. This is extremely useful on large maps, where locating a specific player would otherwise be extremely difficult. | |||
With the Halo Editing Kit, AI characters can also be added in a map. This has allowed some map makers to create their own [[mods]] that can be played like a campaign mission with checkpoints and objectives, and with some skill, cutscenes. People can also make "teams" of AI that will fight each other. The player can fight alongside [[Elites]] and [[Grunts]] against [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]], or vice-versa. Also, some map makers have made some entirely new biped AIs, such as retroactively adding [[Brutes]] to the Halo campaign. | With the Halo Editing Kit, AI characters can also be added in a map.
