I disagree with the use of a cvar to determine immunity flags. Please consider using CheckCommandAccess(). You can use an arbitrary command as an override.

Example:

PHP Code:

CheckCommandAccess(client, "sdas_override", ADMFLAG_SLAY, false); 


Usage:

PHP Code:

Overrides
{
        "sdas_override"        "abcdefz"
}

[KasperH]

Added Hungarian.

[Kid_Bandes]

Nice one, at least those spitter bots are now more useful instead of running away after spit

[CryWolf]

Added Romanian.

Would've been better if spitter take damage (maybe 20~25 HP?) after shoot instead of forcing suicide?
I mean, the spitter has second lowest health on special infected

[Marttt]

The purpose of this plugin is to force people to release the spitter.

Fits well in a 10v10 server that I'm used to play, cause there is a limit of 2 spitters alive at the same time and the spit reloading time is too high to wait for a recharge.

[VladimirTk]

You could make a similar plugin, but for all the infected classes? Many times users win, retaining the infected until the end of the map ;-;

Maybe in the future? come on cheer up
