Thanks for the idea Silvers.
But I found that the tank can be spawned without plugins. All need in the missions folder is to edit files. Take for example hospital.txt

PHP Code:


			
"1"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_hospital01_apartment"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Apartment"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_hospital01_apartment"

            }

Editing

PHP Code:


			
"1"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_hospital01_apartment"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Apartment"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_hospital01_apartment"

                "SpawnBossThreats" "1"

                "coop_boss_spawning"

                {

                    "spawn_witches"                    "0"

                    "spawn_tanks"                    "1"

                }

            }

With a high degree of probability that the tank will appear at the beginning of the chapter. Checked on the server windows l4d. Perhaps this information will be useful

Maybe you need to set "modes/coop/1/SpawnBossThreats" "1" and set the values for "spawn_pos_min" and "spawn_pos_max". Other than that it should work. I see nothing wrong with the way it's been written. You could check with the command "sm_info_mission_list" to verify the data is being modified.

spawn_pos_max, spawn_pos_max is used for versus mode

PHP Code:


			
"versus"

        {

            "1"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_river01_docks"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Docks"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_river01_docks"

                "TankVariant" "models/infected/hulk_dlc3.mdl"

                "VersusModifier" "1.0"

                "VersusConvertPills" "0.25"

                "versus_boss_spawning"

                {

                    "spawn_pos_min"        "0.55"

                    "spawn_pos_max"        "0.95"

                    "tank_chance"        "0"

                    "witch_chance"        "1.0"

                    "witch_and_tank"    "0"

                }                    

            }



            "2"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_river02_barge"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Barge"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_river02_barge"

                "VersusModifier" "1.5"

                "VersusConvertPills" "0.25"

                "versus_boss_spawning"

                {

                    "spawn_pos_min"        "0.3"

                    "spawn_pos_max"        "0.9"

                    "tank_chance"        "1.0"

                    "witch_chance"        "1.0"

                    "witch_and_tank"    "1"

                }                    

            }

            

            "3"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_river03_port"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Port"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_river03_port"

                "VersusModifier" "3.5"    

                "VersusFinaleProgressScoreFactor" "0.85"

                "VersusConvertPills" "0"

                "versus_boss_spawning"

                {

                    "tank_chance"        "0"

                    "witch_chance"        "0"

                }

            }

        }

Coop

PHP Code:


			
"modes"

    {

        "coop"

        {

            "1"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_hospital01_apartment"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Apartment"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_hospital01_apartment"

                "SpawnBossThreats" "1"

                "coop_boss_spawning"

                {

                    "boss_threat_radius"             "350"

                    "boss_threat_separation_min"     "1000"

                    "boss_threat_separation_max"     "1500"

                    "spawn_witches"                    "1"

                    "spawn_tanks"                    "1"

                }

            }



            "2"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_hospital02_subway"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Subway"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_hospital02_subway"

            }



            "3"

            {

                "Map" "l4d_hospital03_sewers"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Sewers"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_hospital03_sewers"

            }



            "4"        

            {

                "Map" "l4d_hospital04_interior"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Hospital"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_hospital04_interior"

            }



            "5"        

            {

                "Map" "l4d_hospital05_rooftop"

                "DisplayName" "#L4D360UI_Chapter_Rooftop"

                "Image" "maps/l4d_hospital05_rooftop"

            }

        }

This forces the tank to spawn in the first chapter, without the need to use plugins.

**Silvers**

The plugin prevents having to modify the mission files, which maybe is replaced on server updates. Also allows modifying for 3rd party maps. I personally would think it easier to modify within the plugin.

To note you would do:

PHP Code:


			
"mission_info"

{

    "all"

    {

        "modes/coop/1/SpawnBossThreats" "1"

        "modes/coop/2/SpawnBossThreats" "1"

        "modes/coop/3/SpawnBossThreats" "1"

    }

}

The 1,2,3 etc for each chapter of a campaign.

help!!!

when increase a clip the grenade launcher there is a bug, when entering the saferoom, it restores ammunition completely or sometimes from reloading.

Hi Alexmy.
What I did is put this modification in mission.txt
It's l4d1

PHP Code:


			
                "SpawnBossThreats" "1"    

                "coop_boss_spawning"

                {

                    "boss_threat_radius"             "400"

                    "boss_threat_separation_min"     "4000"

                    "boss_threat_separation_max"     "5000"

                    "spawn_witches"                    "1"

                    "spawn_tanks"                    "1"

In l4d2

PHP Code:


			
                     "SpawnBossThreats" "1"    

                "coop_boss_spawning"

                {

                    "boss_threat_radius"             "400"    

                    "boss_threat_separation_min"     "2000"   

                    "boss_threat_separation_max"     "3000"

                    "spawn_pos_min"    "0.01"

                    "spawn_pos_max"    "0.05"

                    "spawn_witches"    "1"

                    "spawn_tanks"    "1"

in l4d1 they work perfectly modifying the distance, many appear as they advance, but in l4d2 only 2 or 3 appear as a maximum tank. Witches come out safe at least one per map

Maybe off topic, but anyway...
If the weapon data was changed, specifically spread, the bullet decals are displayed incorrectly on the client side, I think this cannot be solved, except that the client must have the same weapon script?

loooollll

survivor_set works properly on listenservers:

Setting "primary_ammo" to a value doesn't seem to change the reserve ammo for the pump shotgun, resorting to using this plugin: https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=334274. What do I need to edit here?

Code:

		"weapon_pumpshotgun"
		{
			"clip_size"					"20"
			"ReloadDuration"			"0.473"
			"CycleTime"					"0.5"
			"Damage"					"25"
			"Range"						"3000"
			"RangeModifier"				"0.7"
		}

Looking at the weapon script I don't think you can set a primary_ammo amount.

Have you tried Lux' plugins, maybe one of his fixes this I don't know.

You might be better off using Left4DHooks forward:

PHP Code:


			
forward Action L4D_OnGetMissionVSBossSpawning(float &spawn_pos_min, float &spawn_pos_max, float &tank_chance, float &witch_chance);

I guess so, or you could try setting "L4D2FWA_SpreadPerShot" and "L4D2FWA_MaxSpread" with Left4DHooks, I don't recall if that fixed the issue.

The game has "ammo_shotgun_max" "72" cvar and other "ammo_*" cvars. I don't know if setting reserve ammo side works through this, I only change clip size with it.
