[L4D2] Transition Restore Fix

sorallll · **Author**

Description:

After transition/after round restart, if there are multiple players with the same character or the player's character changes, all players of that character will only revert to the data that matches the first character in all data
If a new player joins during the transition, he may control/take over a Survivor Bot owned by one of the transitioning players
Even if there are 7 or more Survivor Bots before the transition, the game will only resume at most 4 after the transition

About:

This is a replacement for Merudo's Save Weapon 4.3 (forked) so remove it.
According to Harry Potter's report, if you want a Survivor Bot that exceeds the survivor_limit limit to not be kicked out of the game after transition restored, you need a Bot management plugin that can dynamically set the value of survivor_limit, such as Merudo's SuperVersus
