hi there.
This is my first submission here
and i hope you guys like it
DESCRIPTION
bebop auto handles the spawning and kicking of bots when a client enters or leaves the server that is needed make additional players in coop mode possible.
INFORMATION
- the plugin does only handle coop mode.
- spawns a bot when a client is entering the game
- kicks a bot when a client disconnects
- it will deactivate it's functions when the gamemode is changed to non coop.
- it will activate when it got changed back to coop again.
there is only 1 cvar, bebop_version, which tells the current version.
you need another mod that allows to set the playerlimit on a server and removes the human survivor limit.
if you want to use connecting though lobby and connecting through the +connect command you need another mod that removes the lobby reservation.
if you're server is runnin on windows i'd suggest to use L4DToolz.
its available for l4d1 and l4d2.
grab l4dtoolz here:
http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=93600
when using l4dtoolz you only need to add the following stuff to your server.cfg
Code:
sv_maxplayers "whateveryouwant"
sv_visiblemaxplayers "-1"
sv_removehumanlimit "1"
sv_force_unreserved "1"
note that sv_maxplayers is also the limit for human survivor players in your game!
for example: if you want bebop to manage 8 human survivor players you have to set sv_maxplayers "8"

z_mob_population_density
z_mob_min_notify_count"
z_common_limit
z_zombie_lunge_push
z_mob_spawn_min_size
z_mob_spawn_max_size
z_mob_spawn_finale_size
z_mega_mob_size
z_mega_mob_spawn_min_interval
z_mega_mob_spawn_max_interval
z_mob_spawn_min_interval_normal
z_mob_spawn_max_interval_normal
z_mob_spawn_min_interval_hard
z_mob_spawn_max_interval_hard
z_mob_spawn_min_interval_expert
z_mob_spawn_max_interval_expert
director_tank_min_interval
director_tank_max_interval
z_special_spawn_interval

z_hunter_speed
z_jockey_speed
z_charger_health
z_hunter_health
z_jockey_health
z_witch_health
z_tank_health

i've used sourcemod-1.3.0-hg2865.zip snapshot to compile the plugin.
when you want to compile yourself theres a #define that is called LOG_ENABLE. set it to false and recompile if you want no logging. the plugin is still beta status thats why i recommend you to activate the logging for a better bug report when weird shit happens.
the log is stored in addons\sourcemod\logs
THANKS:
- to Kaiser who helped me testing alot :-)
- thx to all other coders of plugins especially Jerrith and Whosat,
their neat sources really got me into sourcemod
would be nice to have some feedback
best regards
