// Protoman - Proto Shield blocks all projectiles while not moving, shooting, or zooming for x seconds

 /*

 //Protoman
 protoman_level 60   - what level must they be for Protoman's powers?
 protoman_delay 8    - how long after shooting does the shield kick in?
 protoman_chance .25   - % chance the shield will work


 Version Changes:

 1.0 - useless

 * Initial Release

 1.2 - yang

 * Corrected for AMXX Compiler
 * Code CleanUp
 * Optimized Code

1.3 - heliumdream

* Made use of the proto_delay cvar
* Added a %chance cvar
* Switched health preservation code from old method to the method used in 'Juggernaut II'
* Also note about 8 lines below this is a defination 'HPNO 1200'.  This should be treated as 'additional health'.

-edit #3- This is not a fixed release. I got a version working that involved an ambiguous loop and check that were being tastked every .1 seconds. however, I tried following the suggestions yang gave me below, and I've been frustrated with failure.

I believe everything is working properly - except my set_task call. My set_tasks are executing immediately, and not 8 seconds in the future.

Yang I'm hoping you'll prolly be able to look at it and tell me whats wrong :-D.

Any help is appreciated.

Yang if you read this, also jump to page 2 of this thread and read my next code chunklet.
