About:- Create Bill, Francis, Louis, Zoey, Nick, Rochelle, Coach and Ellis to holdout their surrounding area.
- Bots are frozen and throw items just as they do on "c6m3_port".
- The config which stores the bots spawn location data is saved to \sourcemod\data\l4d2_holdout.cfg.
A file called l4d2_holdout.nut is saved to your servers \left4dead2\left4dead2\scripts\vscripts\ folder and is required to function. - Old version.
Known Bugs:- No control over which items are thrown.
- Cannot use this plugin on "c6m1_riverbank" or "c6m3_port" maps.
Thanks:- Don't Fear The Reaper
