finally someone made this

[larrybrains]

Just tested this on my server and it works great!

I have one request if it is simple to do, but not a big deal if not. Would you be able to make it so the ammo pack doesn't glow for survivors that are holding the grenade launcher?

Thanks again for making this.

Done.

The method is a bit hackish. I hope it doesn't conflict with upgrade pack bug fixes on 8+ player servers.

The new glow setting isn't working on my server. Would having spec spots be considered 8+ player?

Thanks fixed. Spec slots shouldn't be a problem.

1.2 (30-Oct-2019) - Fixed glow not turning off after map transition or when a new upgrade pack is spawned.

When the [L4D2] Upgrade packs BUG FIX extension is installed it might conflict as they both modify the same value, I'm not sure if they work together I haven't looked closely.

If the grenade launcher literally can't be used again after emptying then might as well make it drop like the M60.

This plugin makes the grenade launcher drop and become an unusable temporary prop upon emptying all it's ammo.
EDIT: Updated to Version 1.0.2, better code optimization and updated for SM 1.11, but should work on SM 1.10.
Fixed throw force of the prop. In 1.0.0 it used to just drop unceremoniously on the floor with no velocity.

Hi Silvers,

This plugin didn't work automatically on My Survival mode server. Everyone still take explosive or incendiary round even i already set my convar "l4d2_upgrade_block_type "3"".
This is only work when I manually input that cvar on server console, but after map changes or round restart, plugins stop working and grenade launcher user can take upgrades again. so, I need to re-input cvar again to make it work as it should be.

I'm using Sourcemod 1.11.0.6920 (linux).

Also I'm using these plugins as well, I don't know if there's any conflict or not with your plugins.
