[TF2] Stop that Tank!

Stop that Tank!

Description:
Stop that Tank! (STT/tank mod) is a TF2 mod that replaces the cart in payload maps with the tank boss from Mann-vs-Machine mode. The tank moves by itself, following the cart path and deploys its payload in the finale. In the event the tank is destroyed, a player-controlled giant robot is spawned and has a chance to win by capturing the remaining points & delivering the bomb.

In Payload maps:
The BLU team (robots) must protect the tank and escort the bomb.
The RED team must destroy the tank/giant before they are able to deploy their bomb.

In Payload Race maps:
Two robot teams, two tanks. Slow the enemy tank by damaging it, and clear attackers off your team's tank to let it speed up. Shortly into the round, a player from each team is chosen to become a giant robot, who must then face off in a battle to the death!

I will answer questions here and make a post whenever there is a new release or something breaks.

Thanks for the patience while we worked on polishing the mod!

Invalid navigation file 'maps\pl_badwater.nav'.

It's a bit tricky because the nav is loaded before cvars are executed. That's why we suggested changing the map twice so they take effect. But if you set the values manually, it should take effect right away after map change. changelevel is not the issue. If you want to fix this, you could search in gamedata/tank.txt for "Patch_DisableNavMesh", rename it to "Patch_DisableNavMesh_DISABLED", and restart the server. That will prevent the plugin from making any changes to the nav system. I guess that will have to do until I figure out a better way of turning that off.
