First of all, too many people still can't read attentively. They easily may miss the point that this plugin is for CS only. So question like "Why would anyone run this if they aren't using CS" should never occure. Secondly, the primary rule of good programming habits is to handle every error if possible and print user friendly desciptions (not like those the microsoft put into event log =) ).

if(!is_user_alive(id) && !g_bDeathMsg[id] && !g_bCriticalDamage[id])
which always appears to return true (assuming 'id' was killed) since every time ResetHUD you set both of them to false.
onPlayerSpawn() is called on alive players only. g_bCriticalDamage was introduced to filter out other Damage events after a bug was catched. Otherwise my plugin could send more than one DeathMsg during single death.

Simple answer - try/test it. I suppose it can not occure.

Yesterday i discovered that this plugin fixes DeathMsg absence for C4 kill. So if you're using plugin which allows to plant C4 everywhere, may be it's for you too. By the way, this plugin may be incompatible with VEN's Bomb Explosion Features.

You never printed a user friendly description of that error XD, you just had it run and do nothing if the server isn't running CS.
