Continuously damage the Tank when on fire.

cvars:
l4d_tank_burner_version 1
l4d_tank_burner_dps_vs 150.0 - damage per second in versus mode
l4d_tank_burner_dps_coop 150.0 - damage per second in coop mode

For this plugin to be more useful you should also add this to server.cfg:
sm_cvar z_tank_health 5000
sm_cvar tank_burn_duration_vs 90
sm_cvar tank_burn_duration_normal 90
sm_cvar tank_burn_duration_hard 90
sm_cvar tank_burn_duration_expert 90

Damn Valve implemented this as default behavior (but you still can use it in coop)

It's an interesting idea - and I'd probably prefer something like this than the current "4000 health left, oh noes, I'm dead" situations you get in Vs. Are the default values relatively close to what you'd normally see? (e.g. time taken to kill tank/etc)

[Durzel]

Well assuming you made all of the above changes it would take 80 seconds to die assuming nothing else was hurting it (z_tank_health is multiplied by 150% in VS making 8000 = 12000 actual).

[FrenchTart]

Ah, I actually meant in terms of the damage dealt over time. I don't recall Tanks having that high a health in Vs mode (8000) but I could well be wrong. And 12000 seems crazy high.

[Durzel]

They have 4000 (6000 in VS) by default.

tank_burn_duration dosen't work correctly, i tested 90,120,180,240
Tank is exactly in 60 seconds down by every value

unnecessary comment


Edit: Server crashes - running out of virtual memory
without this plugin i've never become this error

Ok, after the patch and auto shotgun damage reduction a bit lower tank health may be better. Maybe 5000 coop (+1000 to default, 33 sec burn time with no other damage), 7500 versus (+1500 to default, 50 sec burn time with no other damage), just needs testing.
m_cvar z_tank_health 5000

Looking at the code the timer runs every 0.1 seconds, not every 1 second, unless I'm missing something obvious.
