Easter eggs

In ac_power you can find a picture of a tree hidden somewhere.
R4zor, the creator of ac_sunset, hid "R4" in a ceiling, somewhere in the map.
Some mapmodels contain some sort of internal propaganda of AssaultCube. Some examples are the flat-screen TV (called Cuber's), the milk carton (called AC Milk) and the coke can (called ActionCoke).
The potato-box mapmodel has a sign on its top: Aardapple's FINEST: CLASS A ENGINES. Aardapple (or Aardappel, which also means potato in Dutch) is the nickname of Wouter Van Oortmerssen, the creator of Cube Engine, while CLASS A ENGINES refers to the engine itself.
The cup of coffee mapmodel is called "Verbal's Finest". The team's page used to report Verbal_ as "pro-coffee service" (not anymore though).

Some of the bots' names are a reference to someone or something: Sprah (Harps reversed), Karlsberg, Zeunerts, Lapin Kulta, Heineken, Zlatopramen (beers), Rotaredom Murof (forum moderator reversed).
The original SAS playermodel was slightly different from the current one used in AssaultCube.
In the 1.0 version of AssaultCube, when you were banned from the masterserver, you would get rickrolled.
ac_douze can be played in both Cube and Sauerbraten. Also, the Cube's version map message was Soiree aux douze portes overtes (Doors open at twelve of evening).
AssaultCube was called ActionCube. Developers had to change its name because it was too similar to another MMOFPS that was released in those days; it was called ActionQuake.
The only official maps in 0.93 were ac_desert, ac_desert2, ac_mines, ac_depot, ac_complex, and ac_snow.
