[CS:S+GO] Afk Bomb
 

Afk Bomb

Features :

• Prevent short-afking from breaking a full round's gameplay :
• Give the bomb to a random teamate if the bomber is afk at the beginning of the round. (or drop it)
• Drop the bomb if the bomber is afk and make bomber teamsay that he's dropping the bomb. (or give to a teamate)

How it works :

• For the first check of the round :
• Check the "state" of the bomber at round start (1.0 sec after it to be exact).
• Check for a new delayed "state" after a certain amount of time to see if it is the same.
• If over a certain amount of time the "state" of the player didn't change, then he is considered afk : the bomb is dropped/given to a teamate (depending on afkbomb_action) and a message is displayed.
• For the other checks :
• After the first check, the same process is repeated, but it uses the convar "afkbomb_lateCheckDelay" for the delay between two checks.
• When the total number of checks where the player didn't change his state equals the value of the convar "afkbomb_lateCheck", then the bomb is dropped/given to a teamate (depending on afkbomb_latecheckaction).

Known bugs/exploits :

• The bomber can drop his bomb in an unfinite loop (rare; depends on spawn location; if it happens someone can stick him where he throws the bomb to get it, so it isn't a real problem). Since 1.3.1 this is way less frequent (throw is harder).
• -------The following are since 1.4.0 and updated since 1.5.0-------
• The random person can be AFK (ONLY if no players are moving since 1.5.0).
• A player could exploit "afkbomb_latecheckaction 0" feature by fake-afking and therefore send the bomb to a random teamate elsewhere on the map. (in 1.5.0, I did split afkbomb_action into the same CVar and afkbomb_latecheckaction )

CVars :

• afkbombversion: Gives version -_-'
• -------------------------
• afkbomb : How long, in seconds, before the delayed "state" check. 0 = plugin disabled. 1+ = enabled. Default 2.
• afkbomb_freezetime : If "mp_freezetime" value is added to the timer that will run the delayed "state" first check. Default 0 (disabled).
• -------------------------
• afkbomb_msg : Notify team when bomb is dropped (afkbomb_action=1) / Notify everyone when bomb is given to a random terrorist (afkbomb_action=0 ). 0 = no, 1 = yes. Default 1.
• -------------------------
• afkbomb_latecheck : Number of latechecks to do before dropping the bomb. 0 = disable latechecks. Default 2.
• afkbomb_latecheckdelay : Time between 2 latechecks to drop the bomb, in seconds. Min. 1.0, Default 5.0.
• --------since 1.4.0--------
• afkbomb_action : What to do when someone is considered afk at the beginning of the round. 1=Drop. 0=Give to random player. Default 0.
• --------since 1.5.0--------
• afkbomb_latecheckaction : What to do when someone is considered afk after the beginning of the round. 1=Drop. 0=Give to random player (not recommended since it could be exploited). Default 1. (This is afkbomb_action for latechecks)

Notes :

• Place "afkbomb.phrases.txt" in "translations" folder.
• To manually bomb drop and other useful bomb related commands, use Bomb Commands (has menu and a tell-me-who-threw-the-bomb-in-an-unreachable-spot thing).

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

very cool. Any chance you could add a penalty system where as a player could be drugged or something for being AFK or maybe switched to spec after bomb drops? or something .. I put no thought into that at all I'll get back to you :P

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

Thanks for the feedback.

There are already 3 afk managers plugins doing that (kicking/switching to spec.) :

Also the main point of my plugin was to avoid "short afking" (people alt-tabing for short breaks; 5-10 secs; or simply noobs that take 1 hour to buy; missing the freezetime to buy) from completly destroying a game because bomber isn't present to rush with the team (I kind'a rage in those moments "hey lets plant - oh wait - the bomb is afk !" --> "fuuuuuuu"). I didn't intend in anyway to prevent "real" afking.

I don't see why you couldn't use my plugin with one afk manager quoted above... that would do the job IMO.

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

Sure Red I could use an afk management but then the noobs wouldnt be punished for being AFK specifically for being AFK when they have the bomb ( like loosing 16000 dollars which would hurt my players :P ). Naughty naughty terrorists need a smack from the alcida nanny.

Its great on its own anyhows ;)

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

Humm... so for you, being afk with the bomb should be punished heavily while normal afk not ? I have to disagree with your way to think...

Also, do you own a server ?

If so, and if you really want a heavy punishment for bombs-afk only just tell me what you want it to be (don't give my anything too complex, I prefer to use my time on public plugins and i'm still newb to SourcePawn coding) so I might (MIGHT; not will) make you a custom build.

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

You could say I own a couple yeah

Well a normal AFK isnt really hurting anyone unless theres a massacre going on and every man is needed, or a player is taking up a slot. An AFK that is AFK whilst in charge of the bomb is preventing a team win. But like I said its good enough as it is.

I have spent over $1800 in here on custom plugs for my games in the past 16 months I am not really looking for anything else at the moment. I am overloaded. Thanks for the offer though.

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

Updated plugin : added ConVar so the displayed message saying that the afk is dropping the bomb is optional. Default = enabled.

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

Don't work.

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

It's still working..... I just tested...

Check is done at round start, not at player spawn, so at first round it may not trigger. Also you should be using steam...

EDIT : Updated version so it check at 1.0 seconds after round start rather than 0.5... I did some extra test for you and you were somewhat right (on some spawn points for de_dust2, don't know about other maps) ;).

Re: [CSS] Afk Bomb
 

Updated (1.2.2). Corrected a bug where I was GettingClientOfInvalidUserId(). That was happening when afkbomb would leave between the two scans (could be more trouble to server with high afkbomb ConVar value).

Thanks to people using it !
