[TF2] Building Hats

TF2 Building Hats
http://i.imgur.com/d01mgYa.png

What is it?
Whenever you build a sentry it will get a hat and the hat will remain through upgrades

Commands:

sm_bhats_reloadconfig : Reload buildinghats.cfg [Default acces: ROOT]
sm_buildinghats : Would you like your buildables without or with hats? [Default acces: Everyone]
sm_rerollhat : Rerolls the hats of your current active buildings [Default acces: Everyone]
sm_buildinghateffect : Allows you to choose the unusual effect of your buildings hats [Default acces: ROOT]

Cvars:
sm_bhats_version Plugin Version
sm_bhats_enabled (default: 1.0) Enable/disable plugin
sm_bhats_unusualchance (default: 0.1) Chance of unusual effect (0.1 = 10% chance)
sm_bhats_rollcooldown (default: 30 seconds) Hat reroll cooldown

Overrides:
sm_buildinghats_access : Is user allowed to receive hats on their buildings? [Default acces: Everyone]
sm_buildinghats_unusuals : Is user allowed to receive unusuals on their buildings hats? [Default acces: Everyone]

The config:
The config must include 4 things.
- The modelpath of the model you want your sentry to wear
- The offset (z offset) this offset the hat up/down and is pretty tedious to get just right
- The modelscale of the hat (1.0 is normal size)
- The animation. (use default to use default animation)
like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
"Building hats"    //Don't touch this

{

    "0"

    {

        "modelpath"        "models/player/items/all_class/dueler_spy.mdl"

        "offset"        "-4.0"

        "modelscale"    "1.0"

        "animation"        "default" //Don't change animation

    }

}

The config that comes with the plugin contains 41 unique hats because i was too lazy to type in more.
Oh, and the config goes to sourcemod/configs/

Chaneglog:
1.0 - Initial Release
1.1:
- Added sm_buildinghats cmd to toggle whether you want hats on your buildings on/off
- Added sm_buildinghats_access override
1.2 - Fixed an error model appearing sometimes
1.3 - Fixed an error model appearing sometimes (For realz this time!)
1.4 - Fixed an error model appearing sometimes (Peli confirmed worst bugfixer of the year)
1.5 - Fixed sm_bhats_reloadconfig not emptying the array.
1.6:
- Added Animation support
- Added Ability to restrict unusual effects (Untested)
- Fixed when a player that does not have access to this plugin builds a building and a player with access to this plugin repairs it or upgrades it, the building gains a hat.
- Fixed buildings having a chance to gain an unusual every upgrade. (Untested)
1.7 - Fixed buildings losing their unusual effect after upgrade.
1.8:
- Added more Unusual effects
- Added sm_rerollhat command, it has a use cooldown that can be controlled with sm_bhats_rollcooldown
- Added sm_buildinghateffect command, Allows users with ROOT acces to change the unusual effect on their buildings.
- All of the above commands are overridable as usual.
1.9: - Hats enabled by default for new players
2.0: - Renamed reserved keywords

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Cool. Mind adding an override feature for defining which flag is able to have sentry hats? Preferably with an option to enable/disable sentry hats for your own buildings as well.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Not a fan of hats but this is amazing!

I 2nd this, very nice thing to have but it almost certainly would be best suited for flag usage and perhaps toggle on/off?

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

One of these hats in your config is coming out as an error model. Not sure how to tell.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Oh my god this is amazing.

Now I need one that adds tiny hats to rockets, stickies, and those new Robots that were added.

Also, is there a limit to how big the hat cfg can be? I wonder if I could comb through the model list and just add every hat.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Ok so I uncommented the model name printing lines and found this:

Code:

smodel: models/player/items/all_class/all_class_reddit_alt_scout_hat.md

strModelPath: 

models/player/items/all_class/all_class_reddit_alt_scout_hat.md

T

The models are ".mdl" in the config so I'm wondering if their file names are too long.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

How easy would it be to grab the builders current hat and add it to the sentry instead of just pulling a hat from the config?

I like this idea. Please implement that too if you wouldn't mind.

This would be pretty hard to do, getting the players hats model 'should' be easy but getting the offsets magically right to sit ontop of the sentry and not float 400units down/above of the sentry would be hard

I had the same problem too but it was

I restarted my server and it seemed to work fine after

Did you try restarting your server after installation?

Done.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Thanks! It seems someone has an error model for a sentry/dispenser hat. I restarted my server after installation by the way.
Additionally, they don't seem to set right on mini sentries.

I dont know why this would happen but if you could
uncomment the lines

PHP Code:


		
			
391 //    PrintToChatAll("smodel: %s", smodel);

392//    PrintToChatAll("strModelPath: %s", strModelPath);

re compile the plugin and try to get an error to appear and then post the chat output

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Code:

decl String:strPath[100]

The constant PLATFORM_MAX_PATH exists for file paths lengths like these.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Installed it and restarted server, seems like a great plugin but one hats in the default cfg seems to be messed up:

You are running version 1.2 right?

Installed the version after reading this post and restarted my server. An ERROR hat is among the spawned hats.

Fixed i think (again)

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

If you are in MvM before the 1st wave starts and you spawn a sentry, the hat is on the left barrel instead of on top of the rocket launcher.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

The error model hat is the reddit alt scout hat. Just remove that one and you won't have any error models. Unless you've updated to the latest version, of course.

Very hard. You'd have to code in every single hat, do the offsets for each hat. Not to mention that hats are no longer "hats", they are bunched in as cosmetics with misc items.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Thanks for the amazing plugin. Definitely gonna use it for my server.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

I call shenanigans. The teleporters don't have hats.

HERESY!

(Oh and also, would it be possible to add a convar to override the current hat cfg? Like, "sm_hat_config buildinghats.cfg" kind of thing, so I could set specific overrides per maps?)

This plugin is amazing

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

when someone move the sentry happen this

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Would you be able to make it so that the reload config command actually properly reloads as it seems to only add entries on top of the other ones and not actually removing the old config.

Experiencing this very anoying issue as well, any time someone is moving a sentry, every player can see the sentry reach globe thingy

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Anyone have an updated cfg with all the new hats that works? I'm a bit of a noob but hey, still know a good plugin when I see one.

Ah, it's just a silly name I use for myself. She doesn't have a brother.

At least, not as far as we know.

Re: [TF2] Building Hats

Weird problem, I have been trying to add the law to this, but I can't get it to adjust the offset- changing it never seems to work even after a config reload or server restart

PHP Code:


		
			
    "41"

    {

        "modelpath"        "models/workshop/player/items/all_class/sbox2014_law/sbox2014_law_engineer.mdl"

        "offset"        "-2"

        "modelscale"    "1.2"

    }
