This temporarily fixes the high 5 crash which has appeared in the latest update

please remember to disable any other that uses taunts, as this may conflict with them!

EDIT: This should now just remove the high 5 item if a player spawns with it.

I cannot test this right now, someone else will have to try.

Enjoy!

this will disable ALL taunts, preventing people from taunting at all, this may effect the phlog and other weapons that use taunts, i am not sure about those

Disabling all action items is bad juju, especially since the new map uses them.

If i have time i may work on a new one that removes high 5 taunts rather than blocking all taunts, the high5 issue seems to be occuring on those halloween maps as well :/

[island55]

this means people won't be able to use the action slot to activate spells...

Why not just use this?

I made this plugin based on some code i saw somewhere else (cannot remember who posted and will put a comment in to attribute it if I find the person again)....blocks the high five taunt but still allows for the spellbook use (it doesn't crash our server):
