Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have two scripts, one for L4D1 and L4D2. However, they operate differently from each other. I think it might be a good idea for me to mention the Ping scanner at Marttt's l4d2 plugin thread too, as it’s a separate plugin altogether. I’ll send you copy of l4d2 script via private message later when I get time, free of charge.

Essentially, my plugin emits a ping (beacon ring) that scans and highlights all items for 10 seconds and then deactivates the glow effect. It’s triggered by the ‘F’ (flashlight) key. Here’s a short video demonstrating how it operates. L4D1 version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-LA7hMqSGA L4D2 version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ts_bzWZy1wA

Hi Sunyata,

Nice idea, I'm very happy to know that I was able to help you to achieve what you've done in your plugin.

As a recommendation, I prefer that you create a separate thread with your plugin, so I'm able to maintain my plugin in this thread as well.

You are allowed to share it on the forum in a specific thread, and you also don't need to keep my name in the "plugin author", coming here and asking was enough for me.

Nowadays, I'm not having much time with plugins because of real life stuff, so I can't improve much the code now.
In the future, I may merge the ideas and keep you in the credits as well.

Good job.

Good day!

Help fix the error in the plugin. There, the error gives out on the backlight of the minigun, it seems like if I'm not mistaken, but I don't know how to fix it.

The plugin works, but it gives errors to the logs.

Thank you for your quick response. Works well and without errors.
