-= Description =-
This plugin allows admins with the
SLAY flag to defibrillate dead bodies with a menu and bring survivors back to life.
Combine with an external no-dead-body-use respawn plugin so you can bring people back with the in-game accessible method or externally.
-= How to Use =-
sm_defib will open 2 menus in total.
The first one will ask for you to choose a dead body located in the map. The second will then ask for you to choose a dead person. If done correctly, the client will then be instantly defibbed in the location where the body used to be.
It does not matter whether the body and client are different characters - a Nick client can be defibbed in the spot of a Coach body!
sm_vdefib will only open 1 menu, asking for you to choose a dead body located in the map.
Unlike sm_defib, this method can fail in situations where duplicates of survivors roam around.
sm_autodefib will automatically choose the nearest indexed client and body to defib. By default, this will account for the client and body's character in-code (and not model).
sm_telebody will teleport all bodies to your location.
The
autotimer defibs will start for every survivor that dies and count down by themselves.
However, once a timer starts, it can not be stopped, and once a survivor dies before the autotimers are enabled, they have to be manually defibbed.
The autotimer can also be configured to:
- Keep count of how many times a victim keeps dying due to a map death zone, then stop auto-defibbing them if they reach the max amount of early deaths.
- Adjust the 'check for safety' timer responsible for checking whether the auto-defibbed victim had a too-early death or not.
- Teleport them to:
[Mode 1] The nearest living survivor that is on ground.
[Mode 2] A periodically-saved location on static, non-changeable geometry.
The
temporary godmode given to autodefibbed survivors has a cvar to control how long it lasts.
Code:
Tip:
The starting weapon of the survivor after coming back is decided by the survivor itself, not the body.
Thus, defibbing Zoey, who had a frying pan, via Bill's body, whom died with a Pistol,
will still keep Zoey's frying pan as her secondary.
The plugin will autogenerate a
l4d2_defibmodel_cvars.cfg file in your
cfg/sourcemod folder.

-= Releases =-
Code:
Version 1.1.8
- Fixed ConVar descriptions getting cut off due to stupid oversights.
Version 1.1.7
- Now compiles with SM 1.11, albeit with non-fatal warnings.
- Optimized ConVar-grabbing code with Silvers' AddChangeHooks method.
- Optimized chars with static to prevent null string bottlenecks.
Version 1.1.6
- sm_defib_death_model_autodefib_teleport 2 now uses a traceline from the middle of the survivor that only detects static, safe ground.
Version 1.1.5
- Added mode 2 to sm_defib_death_model_autodefib_teleport.
* Periodically saves locations of the client where the client is non-incapped, alive, and on the ground.
* Will teleport them to those periodically-saved locations.
* Recommended to use mode 2 if map has killzones, which are ignored by the godmode timer.
- Prevented godmoded survivors from being counted when checking for teleports.
Version 1.1.3
- Fixed potential cases of VScript defibbing not working at times.
- Fixed black and white cvar not applying to autodefibbing when there is no temporary godmode.

Silvers - For suggesting and providing base code for autotimed defibs.
-= How to Install =-
-
(OPTIONAL) Move the .cfg file to your
sourcemod folder inside the
left4dead2/cfg directory. The plugin, by itself, will auto-generate the config file needed if it doesn't find one, hence this being optional.
-
(OPTIONAL) Move the .txt file to your
gamedata folder inside the Sourcemod directory. The plugin, by itself, will auto-generate the gamedata needed if it doesn't find one, hence this being optional.
- Click on
Get Plugin and move the compiled .smx file to your
plugins folder inside the Sourcemod directory.
IF YOU HAVE AN OLDER GAMEDATA .txt FILE AND/OR A CONFIG .cfg FILE, YOU MUST EITHER DELETE THEM AND LET THE NEW PLUGIN AUTO-GENERATE OR REPLACE THEM WITH A NEW ONE!
