Description:

This plugin makes players less visible as they run faster. With the default values, they will be totaly invisible if they run all the time. This plugin emphasizes the gamer's ability to use sound as a vital tool in its success.



CVARs:

ghosts_mode:

0: off (default)
1: on without glow
2: on with glow

ghosts_team:

0: both teams (default)
1: CT only
2: T only

ghosts_speed:

1 - 50: the speed above which players become totally invisible (default 20)

ghosts_glow:

0 - 100: if the player speed is below ghosts_glow / 100 of ghosts_speed, he will glow (default 25)

Change Log:

0.3a:
code optimizations (thanks Lord_Destros for pointing them out)

0.3:
added cvar ghosts_team (thanks paulg for the ideea)
modified default values of ghosts_speed and ghosts_glow
removed cstrike from include directive

0.2:
added 2 cvars (ghosts_speed & ghosts_glow)
renamed amx_ghosts to ghosts_mode
bug fix on average distance traveled

0.1:
initial release

Sounds interesting by the description, tbh.

Will read the code and comment it better tomorrow.

Simple it needs something more... maybe a noclip would be good cus they are ghosts ;)

It's an idea, but this plugin is not meant solely for fun, but to give players a better understanding of the concept of sound. It's one to hear a player coming and move your crosshair on the direction of the sound, and other just to hear him.

Anyway, I will think at this and see if it can be implemented. My primary doubt is that players will stay inside walls and this can be very annoying.

Thanks

You should use else ifs and pcvars. Your initial 4 defines are also rather redundant...

Nice suggestions ! But I must say you are only 99% right . That 1% is because those else optimize the code only when an admin changes one of the 2 cvars to an invalid value, and that should not happen too often. Nevertheless, two extra else are in the code . Thanks!

[Lord_Destros]

No problem . In any case, you realize you can write

else
if (speed > 50)
{
    speed = 50
    set_pcvar_num(speed_cvar, 50)
}

as

else if (speed > 50)
{
    speed = 50
    set_pcvar_num(speed_cvar, 50)
}

right?
