TechKnow Can you change the AOE sprite flames to a more napalm look? and explosion affect that looks like it came out of Half Life 2.

If you could do that It would be Smashing!!

I've never made a mod before, but I wanted it to do a lil more (mostly damage and customizability without recompiling), so I whipped up my first mod tonight (yay!)

Basically, the pyros will explode like the PyroExplode2 someone posted earlier, but it will hurt someone by default. You can change the damage and the radius, as well as who is hurt by the explosion with simple cvars. I know I'm not proficient at this stuff yet, so excuse any common errors.

cvars:
sm_pyro_explode_enable (def 1) - Enable/Disable pyros exploding on death
sm_pyro_explode_radius (def 600) - How far the explosion will damage people
sm_pyro_explode_damage (def 220) - How much damage the explosion does
sm_pyro_explode_mode (def 0) - Who the explosion targets (0=everyone 1=victim's team 2=attacker's team)

I tested it on my server and it seems to run flawlessly, but I'll fix anything if the need arises. Credit for this goes to the people in this thread and someone who made a basic explode mod for SourceMod. I used that to implement actual damage in it all.

Cheers

No, but I suppose it's easy enough to do. I just need to find the time to update it. You guys will be the first to see it when it does work tho.

Ohh good. Also is there a way to turn off explosion based on how the pyro died? Explosion on backstab is really really stupid, same with explosion on headshot/baseball/suicide/change class/explode in console

Great plugin! I tried it on my server and I liked it. Great work and thank you for taking over this project, i have been hoping someone would make a working exploding pyro plugin for a long time.

Two questions:

#1 Instead of people taking damage, could you make it so they get burned and take fire damage instead?

#2 Can you make a demoman explode plugin? It makes sense than a guy carrying explosives would blow up too when shot.

i hate to sound like a noob, but to make the setting stay, which file to i put the cvar info into? for this plug-in and others?

[ApocalypseDan]

use rcon that should write the cvas to the file automaticly

[GrossKopf]

Tried this out and it's a nice mod, but I was wondering if it would be possible to set up cvars that prevented the pyro from blowing up unless certian weapons were used and only if the kill is from behind.

I thought it was silly that they should explode when a spy stabs them or if they are shot from the front.
