by Blizzard_87

ThreadStart
Description
-----------
With this plugin, each new round a random player is selected from each team and set as that teams VIP.
the whole team needs to protect there teams VIP while trying to kill the other teams VIP.
in order to win the round you need to kill the opposites team VIP player, round will end.
its pretty much gameplay from as_oilrig but on every map.

Commands
--------
say /vrank - shows a color message with your current stats for PTV Stats
say /vtop15 - shows MOTD with current top15 players ranking top who killed Most VIP's

Plugin Installation
-------------------
im not really good at explaining install info, but here goes ( if someone wants to rewrite the install to easy read please do lol )

you only need to worry about this special install instructions if you use amx_ptv_forcemode "0" which uses Round Terminator which requires Orpheu (http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=116393)!.

all included files are attached to install Orpheu (http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=116393) and Round Terminator on your server.
more detailed install instructions are in its thread here (http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1122356)

you also need to compile Protect-The-VIP.sma locally with the round_terminator.inc file.

use the Get Plugin (http://www.amxmodx.org/plcompiler_vb.cgi?file_id=121317) Link at bottom.

Models
--------
unzip the models and place the folders into the models/player/ folder.

Credits
--------
hornet (https://forums.alliedmods.net/member.php?u=73639) - suggesting change client_connect and optimize code for easier reading.

Requirement
-----------------
It has been brought to my attention thanks (ANTICHRISTUS), that i should of noted that this plugin requires the nVault_Util include which isnt supported by the online compiler which i thought it was sorry guys.

Link To nVault_Util Include Thread On Howto Install/Use Here (http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=139584)

Since Orpheu Module might get updated, you should link to the module's thread instead. I'll have a look at the plugin on my pc.

edited post with Orpheu words linked to thread...

All I'd really recommend for now is changing client_connect() to authorised or putinserver so the loading function isn't called as often. ( That way people connecting and disconnecting immediately won't have any effect ). And perhaps also maybe a bit of line separation after new vars or operators, to an extent of course. That part's just my opinion really, but I think it would be more readable ;)

I will make the edits when I get back to computer

thanks Jhob94 the only thing that took me a while was the forcing team win.. then i decided to use cvar so you could choose to use slaying teams or use the Round Terminator which requires Orpheu.

show_dhudmessage( T_VIP, "Your The VIP!, Be Careful")

what do you mean? if your talking about how it ends the round... it only uses one method now.
