Rotoblin 2

Rotoblin 2 (Roto2/R2 CompMod)
The competitive mod developed in 2012 for Left 4 Dead 1.

The Standalone format provides a standalone version of some Roto2 modules. The r2compmod plugin is not reqired and shouldn't be used with standalone plugins! Left 4 Dead 2 is fully supported by standalone plugins. Have fun!

Unscramble

Unscramble Standalone:
Puts players on the right team after map/campaign change and provides developer API.
Events triggering the unscramble feature:

Map change due second round ends.
Map change by sourcemod command.

Features:

Move players to the teams they were.
Spec stays spec.
No sdk calls, no gamedata, no dependencies.
Flexible configs.
Supports both left 4 dead games.

Third-party Plugins Compatibility:
You need to turn off plugins features with similar functions by convars or unloads such plugins.
Plugins that blocks jointeam command may conflict with unscramble (All players will be moved to spectator after map change).
Plugins that provides menu or commands to change team will break unscramble feature. Use Unscramble API to temporarily blocks such commands.
