Server Defense
Version 2.1

Requirements:

Sourcemod rev 1854+
Description:

This plugin defends against some common server problems such as spawn killing and camping. All features can be easily disabled if you don't want it on. Spawn killing is prevented by simply blocking the damage from happening, protected players will be a different color. They will be protected for a length of time and/or until they travel outside of 'x' feet from their spawn. The anti-camp module is completely customisable, you can change how long the player has to be camping to begin punishment, the severity of the punishment, and much more. The new integration into the SourceMod menu to enable or disable any features easily while in-game enhances the ease-of-use of this plugin.

Todo:
Mostly anything you suggest!

Installation:

Extract the contents of the zip file into your game's directory (CSS is "cstrike", DoD:s is "dods", etc)
Install serverdefense.phrases.txt in sourcemod/translations/ (download right under .zip file link)
Navigate to <yourgamedir>/cfg/sourcemod/serverdefense.cfg and configure the server defense options
Download and install serverdefense_menu.smx to sourcemod/plugins/serverdefense/ for admin menu integration
Your done!Changelog:

Removed AFK module, there are plenty of other plugins to use for that, this one was pretty half-assed too.
Removed AFK toggle from the SM menu (so don't forget to update that)
Tried to fix HP bug for TF2, Bahamut, do you mind trying it out for me? If it didn't work it will set your HP to 1 when spawn protection is over :)February 2nd

Fixed spawn protection for TF2February 21st

Fixed player_spawn errorFebruary 24th

Fixed some other player_spawn errorFebruary 28th

Compatible with TF2, yaayJuly 26th

Recoded, now uses m_takedamage to block damage, so whatever game supports that ent prop this plugin will work on it
Reformatted config file, I don't think anyone is using this plugin, but if you update make sure to replace plugin.serverdefense.cfg with serverdefense.cfgAugust 16th

Updated spawn protect to use a more precise countdown, and a distance limitation so if you go outside of 'x' feet from spawn you lose your protection

You may want to do what I did with Whack-A-Pubby and if its TF2 have a default health value to restore people to. The damage amount is never sent in the player_hurt event in TF2.

This is the plugin I really need, over any other plugin, but cant get it to work.

Mod is Insurgency 217.163.31.17:27015 INS-T [2.0e] The.O.C Insurgency

1st Above you say "Contains a simple cvar to disable or enable this in-game (sp_enabled)." But In plugin.spawnprotection.cfg it is sp_disabled "0".

2nd Trying to use it to stop enemy sitting in spawn killing as you spawn, which is quite annoying in Insurgency :grrr:, but nothing happens with sp_disabled 1, or sp_disabled 0.

// Default: "0"
sp_scope "1"

// [Spawn Protection] Slay the spawn attacker
// -
// Default: "0"
sp_slay "0"

There are issues in Insurgency with slaying (Cant do it as no commit suicide, i believe, from using ATAC) but could you move the spawn attacker to spectator?

Hope you can help me get this working on server and the addition on move to spec would be a great bonus

I dunno if u're up for it, but could you also do anti-spawn camping? like spawn slaying after a period of time? Say it hits 1:30 minutes into the game, then it slays all who are in a certain grid you select. Then again at 2 minutes in. Etc. This would really enhanced the CSS world.

You may want to do what I did with Whack-A-Pubby and if its TF2 have a default health value to restore people to. The damage amount is never sent in the player_hurt event in TF2.

Then I won't support TF2, if that's how valve wants it then I won't bother trying to fix what they don't want us to use.

arm5ky, hm, does player_hurt work correctly in Insurgency? To stop the spawn killing I simply restore the player's health back to full as soon as the damage is dealt.

Tomorrow I will send you a test plugin to test the event variables and such in insurgency, that should tell me what I need to fix in this plugin.

ottobohn, Spawn camping would be surprisingly easy to implement. So when/if this plugin gets approved I will most likely add that.

Integrated into which menu?

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-01-2008, 16:39

the admin menu

ferret

01-02-2008, 07:49

Maybe you need to explain how spawn protection could even be added to the menu....

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-02-2008, 10:32

Basically a on/off switch, because some maps are so small that if you have that spawn protection, it makes one team overpower the other team, it could also have a way so that you could do something like Server Management>Spawn Protection>1 Second/5 Seconds/ 10 Seconds/ ect. as well as a way to do possibly a per map config as well to further help people with this, it could end up being a very useful tool for servers like mine where we play only custom maps where spawn camping can be a huge hassle...

Thats just a few thoughts ;)

ottobohn

01-02-2008, 11:07

I'll write you that script for the admin menu once the anti-spawn camping is implemented. I'm sure the writer for the plugin will allow you to have different variables.

Anti-spawn camping will bring sourcemod to the forefront. It will rival MANI and I can promote it much easier.

Heh, now I'm struggling to think of a name that suits the plugin.

Its more than just spawn protection, its also an anti-camp and afk detection plugin.

steambob

01-02-2008, 18:21

It would be nice if the player under protection would change his color so one would see who is protected.

Another thing which would be nice is a countdown for the protected player (e.g. in the chat area) so he knows that the protection is temporary.

Greyscale

01-02-2008, 19:21

Ok, I have afk detection, anti-camp, and steambob's suggestions.

Now I need a name, and to append some settings to SM's menu.

steambob

01-04-2008, 19:51

Sorry to bother you with my suggestions, but would it be possible to stop the spawn protection not only on timer but also on player action?

- if the player starts moving (but looking around with mouse should not stop the spawn protection);
- if the player starts using weapons - primary/secondary attack or player changes from one weapon to another.

Thanks.

Greyscale

01-04-2008, 21:16

I'm not going to stop the protection if they move, that eliminates the purpose. Then it will only protect people who are afk.

If the player shoots someone I suppose I can end the protection, but only if they actually shoot another player, not just shooting a wall.

steambob

01-05-2008, 10:04

It is a pity you are not going to implement that.
In HL2DM the timer option is not enough for spawn protection. One can gravgun a person in a couple of seconds or pickup a colt and make a headshot (or get close enough to prepare for one-touch kill). And once the script detects that the player shoots not the wall but another person, the other person is already dead.

I hoped your plugin could replace the standalone plugin (http://www.esteticas.se/catman.php?lang=en) from Mästerkatten which incorporates the features I've described. This plugin is well tested and well-accepted in HL2DM community (but it takes many months before the author has time to implement other small features, like wearing off the protection on timer :)). Any chance you could change your concept so the options are available to stop the spawn protection on move and on weapon usage?

Thanks.

Greyscale

01-05-2008, 16:53

Hows about I reverse all damage done by a protected player? And as soon as he fires his spawn protection will go away. (Wasn't thinking about HL2DM when I posted before)

steambob

01-05-2008, 20:37

I might be wrong, but I think that once the damage is lethal, one cannot reverse it (the attacked player will die anyway). There are many ways in HL2DM to make a frag by a single shot.

ferret

01-05-2008, 21:49

The old fashion method to fix that is to give the player +1000 health. Nothing in-game can deal 1000 damage. Then when spawn protection ends, adjust everyone back to 100.

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-06-2008, 00:23

that would not work in TF2 because of the spy backstab...

ottobohn

01-06-2008, 06:08

I'll beta test this and help you tweak it for the best results. Thanks for helping us with this common issue!

Quickly, can you have it where it kicks people for name changing in game? We'd need it to stop people from the name change scripts when they hack. They're more difficult to ban when they auto name change.

otto

Greyscale

01-06-2008, 14:50

Steambob, I know that in source nothing can kill you when you just simply set their health back to 100. It's like SM sets it back before the damage actually happens.

There is another way of stopping damage, through the hacks plugin, it's a better way (stops bullet impact compeltely) I can transfer to that if spy backstab can get passed my current method

As for name changing, this isn't an anti-hack, sorry. If someone is changing their name rapidly then ban them, or find a good anti-hack plugin.

It's not really that fun to code either.. it would mean a loop that checks everyone's names and store it then check it again in like 2 seconds against the stored one and keep a counter of changes

EDIT: Hacks plugin won't work for TF2 :/, the current method should suffice though. I don't think this plugin works for TF2 anyway (the spawn protection part won't)

EDIT2: Current method works perfect. In CSS I awped a teammate in the head and they died in 1 hit. Then I enabled spawn protection and awped them in the head and they still had 100% HP, so it reverses the damage before the game can realize what happened.

Greyscale

01-06-2008, 16:53

Update

Made minor changes in the base plugin, just a new variable prefix, "sd_"

Included new admin integration plugin, it is an optional plugin that you install next to the base plugin to integrate these options with the SM admin menu.

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-06-2008, 21:17

I shall give this plugin a whirl tonight to see how well it works out, so look foreward to an edit on this post to tell ya how it goes, also, will this also have a per map setup config kinda like how the TF2 Class Limit has? If it doesn't yet, that would be a good idea as many maps run differently with their spawns, sometimes the last CP is right outside the spawn and it makes it harder to cap if you have a couple of invincibles coming out of the spawn.

Greyscale

01-06-2008, 21:40

They are only invincible for about 10 seconds, protection will wear off by the time they are running out of spawn to the cap.

You can make your own per-map config you know. Make a folder named cfg and put it in the maps folder then put in cfg files named after the map you want the config to be for and set the spawn protection length cvar in that config.

maps/config/ctf_2fort.cfg

sd_spawnprotect_time 3
// You can put any time you wantIf it changes to a map you don't have a config for, then it will use the value in plugin.serverdefense.cfg

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-06-2008, 22:41

I have noticed on problem, the protection doesnt seem to last the full 6 seconds I have it set for, as well as sometimes people dont loose their "greeness" after the 6 seconds and keep it until they die... Another problem is that (and I dont know if mabe it didnt do it to me because I am an admin and on the list) but it would not slap me for 100 damage after 2 minutes and would not kick me if I stayed afk for an entire round, I have the movement required set to 1, and I dont know if this includes being bumped into by other players and all as in TF2 other players can move you by bumping into you... Another thing that would be useful is if it were team colors as well.

Greyscale

01-06-2008, 23:09

It requires that you move a certain distance so it doesn't think you're afk. A little bump shouldn't be near enough to get it to think you aren't afk.

I'm thinking that these are all TF2 related bugs, because it works fine for me.

The anti-camp doesn't start slapping you at all if you sit in one spot for a while?

It might be GetClientAbsOrigin not working in TF2?

As for the spawn protection, did you configure it to turn them green, because by default they should be red.
The time should be right.. it plugs the value of the cvar directly into the timer.. weird

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-06-2008, 23:21

I set it to the green color as it would be bad to have a blue player with a red tint... and vice versa... If you have Team Fortress 2 you should stop on my server to see what its doing, mabe you would get a better understanding... Also, I have been killed before within the 6 seconds that I have it set to protect me for...

Greyscale

01-07-2008, 00:12

Yeah, as I said before I didn't think it would properly spawn protect in TF2 because player_hurt doesn't return the damage done.

I might go through and "TF2-ize" the plugin to work better, yeah I have TF2, send me the IP

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-07-2008, 00:34

The IP is in my signature, it is normally full throughout the day and late into the night. I'll leave the plugin on and if you need anything such as logs or such, just let me know.

This plugin is designed to mimic the damage in player_hurt, you may find it useful in adapting for TF2.

steambob

01-07-2008, 18:39

I've just tested the plugin - the spawn protection part does not work on HL2DM.
The reason is the same - no damage info in player_hurt.

But setting health to a large constant on player_hurt works well (I think 100 would work also, I've only tested it with 500 :)).

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-07-2008, 19:20

For now I am unloading this plugin, let me know when you think you have the bugs worked out and I'll throw it back on and give it a test run on my TF2 server

Greyscale

01-07-2008, 19:51

*sigh* fine, I'll just set their health to 1000 in consideration of multi-mod support, not that big of a deal, just seems more clean to stop damage completely.

How will I know what HP to set it back to in TF2? (Different classes have different HPs)

steambob: Does anti-camp/afk work for you? I want to confirm this problem is only in TF2

steambob

01-07-2008, 19:55

Yes, anti-camp seems to work fine.
I have not tested afk though.

Greyscale

01-07-2008, 20:16

Ok, that's all I need to know, if anti-camp is working then afk should be (uses the same functions)

It's weird that neither are working for tf2, I'll check it out.

steambob

01-07-2008, 20:27

Is there any chance a "chat protection" can be done:
- if a player faces a wall for a certain time, he will get a protection ?
And then he would loose the protection on the move/weapon use?

Would be really nice.
Sorry for my suggestions :)

Thanks.

Greyscale

01-07-2008, 21:47

That would be easy abuse, it would have to know you are typing before it starts anti camping you, which is too quick, so you could just aim at a wall and camp then shoot then people come and be invincible heh.

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-07-2008, 23:47

what would be nice is if after typing it gave you a couple seconds of no input restriction to avoid that, as well as it taking like 3 seconds for it to turn on, so that you cant just start typing and be invincible and after you stop typing your still frozen and invincible for a couple of seconds giving you time to follow up and say something else

Greyscale

01-07-2008, 23:51

I can't detect when the user is writing a message, so just waiting 3 seconds of them not moving their crosshairs is easily exploitable by sitting down and camping, then lighting someone up who runs around the corner while not moving your crosshairs to stay invincible.

It's something that will most likey never be accomplished in source (or any game really) because there will always be ways to exploit it. Just buy a mic if you don't want it happening to you :)

01-08-2008, 01:37

what if the servers alltalk is off and you need to message the other teams members about something? why cant we have a team talk and all talk button?

MoggieX

01-08-2008, 08:19

not sure if this has been suggested, however for:

If you are idle from when you spawn until the round ends the plugin will automatically either kick you, or throw you into spectators.

Can this look to see if the player is an admin or not, if it is an Admin (generic flag B) then to boot to spec and if not kick from server?

Could you detect if a player was facing a wall for 2-3 seconds then disable the camping timer? Also switch on protection until they turn away from the wall?

:)

But what if a camper just sat there (aiming at a wall), he would get invincibility and not get punished for camping

Can this look to see if the player is an admin or not, if it is an Admin (generic flag B) then to boot to spec and if not kick from server?

No problem, I'll add a third mode for that cvar :)

I'm sure it's because they didn't want to complicate things more with two mic commands. (Most people can't even open console). Don't think it's possible to make a command to do this with SM either.

Yes this is true, but you would have to be a certain distance to the walls for it to work, such as the following plugin.

Website = http://www.esteticas.se/catman.php?lang=en

File link = http://www.esteticas.se/catman/sc_protect_3.2.9.zip

When you look away from the wall = no protection, and you have to have your nose up against it for a 2-3 second time for it to enable.... any campers wanting to look at walls and not kill anyone it would be ideal, but any campers looking into the play area would just get slapped as normal

I couldn't reproduce this, it is probably the SM stock I am using, BAILOPAN told me that he is re-making that stock sometime soon to work for TF2 I think he said. So as soon as you update to that version when it becomes available, the bug will fix itself.

Why not just use this plugin? Is it not available for the game you are running?

I see the idea now, and I see it might work, but while you are protected you are going to be killed anyway as soon as you move, because if someone from the other team see's you they will just camp you until you finish your message or move.

The plugin supports my game yes, but i am only running sourcemod plugins so thought it would be the place to ask for it :P

Also i would assume if i did use that plugin combined with your release, even though i was protected i would get slapped away from the wall and out of protection, but i have not tried this as i don't want to run other plugins anymore.

If someone else does see you and waits to kill you, well its not exactly in keeping with this idea of non camping plugin i agree, but at least you have the option to face a wall to chat if needed :)

I am giving it a try tonight, gonna see if it starts any problems, ill let ya know and if needed I will tape it and put it on youtube for ya to see ;) hope it doesnt happen though

Edit: so far so good, spawn protection works like a charm, havnt tried backstabs, but I have a feeling that its not gonna block that for some reason (dont think thats a player_hurt event) but oh well, it does a pretty good job as is. Great job on it man, double thumbs up

EDIT! BIG ISSUE! After someone spawns a couple seconds passes and they are reduced to 100 health for no reason, I checked to make sure it was this plugin and it is... Only way to avoid it is to go to the cabinet after it does it... Had to take it off the server because of this. Seems as though it happens when your protection turns off...

01-09-2008, 16:16

Greyscale

01-09-2008, 22:11

Neo, this is TF2 right?

Why is their HP being set to 100 a huge issue? That's how spawn protection is taken away. Do you mean 100 as in a literal "100" or 100% HP (because I know TF2 has HP like 125, 200, 300, etc). It should be recording your HP when you spawn and when protection is over it should reset it back to the earlier recorded HP. Does GetClientHealth not work for TF2?

arm5ky, yeah, this is a known issue, it will eventually be fixed though, by BAILOPAN.

remercy, Not good, I'll take a look, I need more information though. Does it tell them spawn protection is over, ever? Do they change back to normal color, but keep their 5000 HP?

Neo_Bahamut_19

01-10-2008, 00:15

If you have 175 HP at spawn it reduces you to 100 HP after a little bit, and thats with all classes and healths, always sets to 100, weather your a scout with 125 starting or a heavy with 250 or w/e it is, it always knocks you down to 100 HP after the protection goes off...

remercy

01-10-2008, 10:26

the glitch only happens to one two people at a time and they often keep it between map changes.i don't believe that it tells them that spawn protection is over, they stay red, and still keep the hp. they are practically immortal

maybe you can swing by our site and contact me on the forums so you can see the issue first hand

Neo, it is probably a TF2 specific problem.. again. I'll check it out.

remercy, that info gave me what I need to know, it means that there is some sort of timer error happening over map changes. Probably something simple and should be fixed in the next release, thanks for the report.

Greyscale

01-12-2008, 16:59

Hm I can't figure out why the timer is never finishing. If there was an error when the timer is started, then they shouldn't become immortal, so the timer is starting fine, it's just either erroring sometime when it ends, or something more weird is happening inbetween

Yeah, but the only that tells me is that GetClientHealth is possibly broken for TF2. So what I need to do is make defines for all classes in TF2 (or they should be included in SM) and then match the class with the hp

Update

Removed AFK module, there are plenty of other plugins to use for that, this one was pretty half-assed too.
Removed AFK toggle from the SM menu (so don't forget to update that)
Tried to fix HP bug for TF2, Bahamut, do you mind trying it out for me? If it didn't work it will set your HP to 1 when spawn protection is over :)

I will try it out tomorrow sometime and let you know my results, I sure hope it works :mrgreen:

Edit: I havn't gotten to test it yet as I am in the middle of some other stuff, but be assured, I will be testing it soon!

oh ok, thanks, thought that was the issue

Edit: I tried the plugin, after it started working, people still remained green, this time everyone was green, constantly, they wouldnt loose it till death. It also knocks us down to 1 health still after the protection is over... :\

Greyscale

01-27-2008, 22:25

Ok then that tells me the problem, the m_iHealth offset doesn't work in TF2 :/

I'll do some research and try to fix it

Any problem?

Hi, i try it on insurgency. I can see the plugin is loaded with rcon sm plugin list.

When I spawn i see "you are protected for 10 sec" but its not work. I can be spawn killed and the plugin do nothing.

What I forgot to do please ?

Greyscale

02-06-2008, 20:25

Is your HP being changed at all? It should be getting set to 5000.

When you see it loaded in sm plugins list, you are sure there is no "<Failed>" preceding the line?

KDF

02-06-2008, 22:14

Where I can see how my hp are set? And i dont see any failed. I can see other people in my team in red when we spawn. But enemy can kill em without any problem.

02-06-2008, 22:33

Neo_Bahamut_19

02-07-2008, 19:43

Do you think making a specific plugin whereas each class has a specific health (like scout registers at 125, pyro at 175, ect.) would work better? Mabe so it reads what class you are using and throws you back to that HP after protection is over.

Greyscale

02-07-2008, 22:38

Did the new version not work?

Neo_Bahamut_19

02-07-2008, 22:41

no, it still did the same thing... I think what it needs to do is identify the Team Fortress 2 game, and identify which character you are using and apply the correct HP that way...

Greyscale

02-08-2008, 21:11

It set their HP to 1?

Or to 100?

That is my last resort, but I shouldn't be getting these problems with only TF2..

Neo_Bahamut_19

02-08-2008, 22:04

100, it resets their HP to 100

Greyscale

02-09-2008, 15:27

It's probably something to do with getting their HP as the spawn, because no one else has had this problem with TF2

Neo_Bahamut_19

02-09-2008, 22:48

What do you mean by that? How can I be the only one getting the error in TF2?

Greyscale

02-10-2008, 01:34

I mean in general, no other plugin authors have been having trouble getting HP in TF2

Neo_Bahamut_19

02-10-2008, 03:13

Hmm, mabe its your technique, mabe ask some others that might have dealt with it before

Greyscale

02-10-2008, 22:51

Just found that the same thing is happenin to someone else, so it's not me, its TF2, or some game incompatibility in GetClientHealth

Neo_Bahamut_19

02-12-2008, 17:47

Might not be there as each character has a different health setup and takes damage differently sometimes (demomen take less damage from explosives than any other class and pyros cannot be set on fire as well as other differences between classes)

Greyscale

02-13-2008, 20:43

It's possible, but you wouldn't think that should mess up their health on spawn, the next frame everything is good.

Is it possible to turn the anti-camping feature depending on how close they are to a spawn point? I'd like to have it so when they're anywhere within 20 ft to a spawn point, it'll beacon them after 1:30 seconds.

I'm running this on a HL2 TDM server and would like to say it works great.
The only issue I have is I had to set the protection time to about 3 sec to keep people from running around invincible for 10 sec.

Would it be to much of a bitch to add movement into the equation. So as soon as they move the protection is gone or the time which ever occurs first.

Greyscale

08-13-2008, 20:56

That's a good idea, and possible. I can use the player_footstep event although if the players were smart they could use +speed to bypass that event. Time will still remove it though.

How do you turn the timer off and just use feet, and how do you turn the colors off completely?

Set these to:

// Amount of time to protect player after spawning
sd_spawnprotect_time "0"

// Alpha component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_alpha "255"

// Blue component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_blue "255"

// Green component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_green "255"

// Red component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_red "255"

Although I don't suggest going soley off feet, because people will learn they can just sit there and stay god moded as long as they don't move outside the radius.

I'd like to see the ability to toggle off protection if the protected player shoots.

Elite_Fallen_Angel

07-10-2010, 18:37

I have this on my TF2 server and for some odd reason it makes the Heavy class immune to any damage at all times, essentially like God-Mode. The plugin works for everything else just fine though.

Here is a copy of my serverdefense.cfg

// Server Defense
//
//

//
// Spawn Protect
//

// Enable or disable spawn protection
sd_spawnprotect "0"

// Amount of distance to protect player after spawning
sd_spawnprotect_distance "15"

// Amount of time to protect player after spawning
sd_spawnprotect_time "4.0"

// Alpha component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_alpha "255"

// Blue component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_blue "0"

// Green component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_green "0"

// Red component of protected player
sd_spawnprotect_red "255"

//
// Anti-Camp
//

// Enable or disable the anti-camp feature
sd_anticamp "0"

// How frequently, in seconds, the plugin interprets each player as idle or not
sd_anticamp_frequency "1"

// How many times, consecutively, the player needs to be interpretted as idle to start camping punishment
sd_anticamp_offense "10"

// How frequently, in seconds, to punish camping players until they stop camping
sd_anticamp_punish_frequency "3"

// A scale of how far the player needs to travel to be considered not idle
sd_anticamp_radius "80"

// How much damage to slap camping players with
sd_anticamp_slapdmg "5"

I don't know if it may be an update that's conflicting or what but this server is new with pretty much all stock configurations. Mani-Mod is also installed but there isn't anything that I'd imagine would conflict with the plugin, especially considering it's just the Heavy Class that's effected. I also should note that the Heavy class with glow a faint red so I'm guessing the spawn protection is not taking effect on them for some reason.
