add a special effect when the bird hit something

FindEntityByClassname should be in a loop. As of right now, it only works for one rocket at a time. Optionally, SDKHooks might make this more efficient. Otherwise, cool, birds.

Whoops, updated. I probably would have caught this, but I went to sleep shortly after posting it.

this plugin is awesome! tyler, is there any chance you can add a cvar that lets you define a different model?

Here's a version that uses SDKHooks, and makes all stickybombs the sitting birds, while all rockets become the flying ones (I couldn't get the animation working correctly).

To use it, anybody with the "o" flag does !birds, and it will display a message saying "your rockets and stickybombs will now/not be birds". To set it to something other than the "o" flag, open up the admin_overrides.cfg file in your sourcemod/configs folder and add the line "sm_birds" "flag", with flag being either empty ("") for everyone to use it or whatever flag you want to set it to.

Yes, in both plugins we're just changing the model they use, not the entities themselves.

As I said in my OP you could change the models to just about anything Such as a sticky launcher that shoots pumkins, or a rocket launcher that shoots arrows, or even a stickybomb launcher that shoots rocket launchers that shoots sticky launchers that shoot rocket launchers that...*head asplode*

Note: You can't actually do that last one with this plugin.
