Description:

By default, SourceMod reloads plugin on map change only (in case its file modification time is changed).
This plugin does the same every 2 seconds (adjustable).

*New features:

- Notify in chat about reloading, loading, unloading.
- Show plugin load status in chat
- Can load newly added plugins (you must set it in ConVars!!!)
- Can reload plugin even if the previous time it is failed
- Can reload translation files cache (when some plugin is changed)
- Scan in subfolders (recursively)
- Ensure plugin is really loaded in case it was fault due to attempt to reload it in middle-time of file uploading
- ConVars allowing to select delay (shorter, to track changes faster - for dev., or vice versa, longer delay to decrease CPU load - for production server)
- Ability to show part of error log in chat when plugin failed to load
- More optimized.

Commands:

PHP Code:

// Forcibly check plugin files for newly updated and reload if any sm_pluginsreload

Settings (ConVars):

Located at: cfg/sourcemod/sm_autoreload.cfg

PHP Code:

// Enable this plugin? (1 - Yes, 0 - No) sm_autoreload_enable "1" // * Delay between updates (in sec.). Set 0 to disable timer at all. sm_autoreload_delay "2.0" // ** Do we need to check for new plugin files appearing? (1 - Yes, 0 - No). sm_autoreload_track_new "0" // Where to show info about the reloaded plugin? (0 - Nowhere, 1 - Server, 2 - Chat, 4 - Console. Sum them to combine several options) sm_autoreload_show_info "3" // How many lines of error log to display when the plugin is failed to load? (0 - to disable) sm_autoreload_error_lines "4" // Display chat message to admins only defined by these admin flags (leave empty - to display for all users) sm_autoreload_msg_flag ""

*Notice 1: I would suggest setting like 5.0 - 10.0 sec. delay for production server where you don't need so quick plugin check.
**Notice 2: track new files cause more disk operations since the entire folder has re-read each time. Leave disabled to improve performance.
