Description

Written as more reliable replacement of MultiTanks with other set of features.

This plugin spawns tank:
on first map after delay specified in ConVar when the first player leave safe area (see ConVars: l4d_tank_on_spawn_fm_chance, l4d_tank_on_spawn_add_tanks_firstmap)

duplicate tanks on the next maps each time when director spawn the tank

Tanks count to spawn can be adjusted:
directly by ConVar

by vote menu in any time

using balancer (based on current players count + game difficulty: see l4d_tank_on_spawn_players_X and l4d_tank_on_spawn_add_tanks_X ConVars).

Tanks spawn one by one with an interval defined in l4d_tank_on_spawn_interval ConVar.

Tank HP can be adjusted by:
ConVar

vote menu

autobalancer (players count + game difficulty)

or disable controlling hp at all

(if l4d_tank_on_spawn_countmode == 1, vote menu hp is preserved for all maps, otherwise it is preserved for current map only)

All votes are logged to logs/vote_tanks.log
By default, vote can be started by admin with StartVote "k" flag (adjusted by ConVar)

Features:

- spawn tank next to director's tank
- spawn tank on the first map
- autobalancer of hp and count
- max tanks control
- menu
- vote
- access levels

Compitibility:

- L4D1

If you want to enable balancer, you must setup such values:

PHP Code:


			
l4d_tank_on_spawn_control_hp "2"

l4d_tank_on_spawn_countmode "2"

Commands:

User commands (with flag "l4d_tank_on_spawn_voteaccess"):
- sm_tank - Show tank spawn menu
- sm_tanks - same

Admin root commands:
- sm_veto - Allow admin to veto current vote.
- sm_votepass - Allow admin to bypass current vote.

Requirements:

GeoIP extension (included in SourceMod)

(optional) Left4DHooks Direct

Game director should work properly - If it doesn't spawn tank, this plugin doesn't append tank as well (excepting first map if you set l4d_tank_on_spawn_fm_chance > 0).

SourceMod v1.10+

Credits:

- Joshe Gatito (Aya Supai) - for some requests and tests

Conflicts:

- Supertanks and any plugin that hooks "z_max_player_zombies" ConVar and reset (lock) it immediately on its own (LOL, ask their authors why they do it).
* Note: "Mutant tanks" are supported since v8.66
