Description
This plugin adds a spawn chance to become a sharpshooter smoker.
You can "shoot" survivors with your tongue dealing damage.
Basically you shoot your tongue, damage is dealt and the tongue is cut, you can attack right away.

Features
Smoker can shoot survivors with his tongue instead of pulling them.

Cvars
A configuration file named "l4d_smoker_sharpshooter.cfg" will automatically be created for you upon the first run in the "\cfg\sourcemod" folder.

// This file was auto-generated by SourceMod (v1.10.0.6435)
// ConVars for plugin "l4d_smoker_sharpshooter.smx"


// Percent chance to become a smoker boxer. 1-100

Change Log:
1.0.1 (19-June-2022)
- Initial release.
1.0.2 (12-November-2022)
- Crash on Tonguerelease & Dealdamage / Test with Dealdamage on grab now.


Notes
Tested only on l4d1, might work for l4d2 though.
This plugin shows 0 indication of support for more than one smoker.

ToDo
Atm I set miss delay and let it as it is.
SetConVarInt(FindConVar("tongue_miss_delay"), g_iCvar_delay);
Would be better to read original value and then set it to g_iCvar_delay when sharpshooter is spawned otherwise set original value.
But atm it is hot outside, my armpits smell funny and I can't get myself up to do that now.

How does your first instinct of Spiderman not tell you that it's supposed to fly?

Interesting release, but I would want to allow players to switch into original smoker so they can finish the last survivor.

Your plugin shows 0 indication of support for more than one smoker.

I wonder why event_tongue_release fires so often. um

[sonic155]

not sure but it crashs the game of whoever the smoker tongue hits then this is spammed

[finishlast]

I think Not enough space on the stack is some kind of recursive loop buffer overflow.

I now put "Dealdamage" from event_tongue_release to event_tongue_grab, maybe that makes a difference.

Maybe event_tongue_release doesn't like the way how I cut the tongue and then missbehave?

Let's try the grab event, wouldn't matter in this case anyways where I deal damage.

Updated first post.

Tested works great =)

Sometimes when a Smoker SharpShooter kills a survivor it becomes invincible...
