This plugin is simply chinagreenelvis' old self revive plugin but I cannibalized and used the code from his newer autohelp plugin to make self revive respect survivor_max_incapacitated_count and use the normal formula for calculating total health after a ledge self revive.

ALL CREDIT TO PANXIAOHAI FOR ORIGINAL CONCEPT AND CHINAGREENELVIS FOR THE CODE
I merely took and rewrote a few lines of code from autohelp into the original selfhelp and I barely know what I'm doing.

Known Bugs

• Ledge Revive Health - upon first use of the plugin self reviving from a ledge gave me 1hp on revive, every time after it has used the proper equation.
• Pinned Incap Bug - turning off self revive for pins still allows for self helping once you become down, reviving with 1hp but the game still considering you incaped. (i.e. playing incap music and can't pull out non weapon items.) fixed on next down but still annoying

UPDATES

• 1.4.2 - Initial release

Nice work Danky! Is it possible that you make it so survivors have to use pill or adrenaline for self-help? At the moment look like the plugin provide a huge benefit without some actual risk.
Edit: Also you should post the source file, I think that was one of the forum rules

Thanks for the tip, the source file is up now. it is totally possible to have temp health items required to stand up but I'm not sure how to do it yet. I'm still barely learning sourcepawn syntax and I was only able to make this by copy pasting and replacing a few lines but once I figure out how to do it I will eventually add a version of the mod that requires use of pills of adrenaline. In the meantime try using Self-Help (Reloaded) from cravenge, might be exactly what you're looking for but I've personally not used it. I personally like the ability to get up with no item requirements because I play on my listen server with a huge increase to common and special limits/abilities.

I've tried cravenge's version, but it was old and there's some bugs which seem like the author was not that active and willing to fix. So I'm still looking for a better alternative.

Thank you for even consider adding the feature I suggested though. Stay awesome Danky!

I wonder if you can add more features like sacrificing some health to get out, or get out with difficulty, the lower your health the harder to get out

Is there a way for the ai computer to save itself? I mean, most of the time the computer gets swallowed up by monsters

Does anyone know the name of the plugin to pick someone up when they are on the ground without interruptions, that is, you can pick up your partner while taking damage from the incapacitated

Thanks, but I combined it with auto-revive and it breaks. It doesn't work when taking damage, the survivor can't get up on their own due to damage from acid or zombies. I hope the creator takes that into account and fixes it: C
