Description

This plugin allows you to continue shooting while holding the attack button (M1), like if the client was repeatedly pressing it.

The weapons below don't have this feature by default, so if you keep holding the attack button, it does nothing:

• All Pistols
• All Snipers
• Pump and Chrome Shotguns
• Grenade Launcher

I made it based on these plugins:

• [L4D|L4D2|(Any?)] Automatic Pistols by Timocop
• [L4D/L4D2] Weapon Fire Modes by MasterMind420

Features

• Allow configuring which weapons should have the auto fire turned on.
• Allow configuring the delay in frames to auto fire.
• Enable auto fire on weapon switch.
• Enable auto fire after releasing a minigun/50 cal.
• Enable auto-reload for shotguns.

Cvars

A configuration file named "l4d_weapon_auto_fire.cfg" will automatically be created for you upon the first run in the "\cfg\sourcemod\" folder.

Known issues

• Depending on the ping, the client may experience sound and animations bugs. Pistols (Normal/Dual/Magnum) are more noticeable to this issue.

Notes

• You can achieve a similar behavior (without plugin) by clicking fast the attack button while shooting with these weapons.
• Frames runs approximately every 0.1 seconds on a 30 tick rate server (thanks "Lux"). If you run in a different tick rate you may have to change the "*_frame" cvar values.
• The config is based on frames and not by gametime cause it's really hard to calculate how many milisseconds are necessary to see some changes and during my tests with gametime it reproduced inconsistent and random behaviors even with the "right" values.
• Is possible to simulate some "lag" behaviors by using "net_fakelag <value>" in the console. I usually use a value of 100 to test.
• Shotgun full reload may cause animation glitches cause of the client-side prediction. If you turn of the prediction (cl_predict 0) it will work more smoothy but I don't recomend cause it has some bad side-effects.
• Auto and Spas Shotguns already do auto fire by default, but with the cvar enabled, their fire rate is increased. (increasing their respective *_frame cvars, can cancel this behavior)
• SMGs (SMG Uzi, SMG Silenced, SMG MP5) and Rifles (M16, Desert, AK47, SG552, M60) already does auto fire in vanilla, so this plugin just ignore them.

Understanding the frame cvars calculation (thanks "Lux")

Example:

l4d_weapon_auto_fire_pistol_frame "3"

At tickrate @30 (default):
Next auto fire = GetGameTime + (0.033 * 3)

At tickrate @60:
Next auto fire = GetGameTime + (0.0165 * 3)

Formula:
GetGameTime + (GetTickInterval * 3)

To Do

• Enable auto fire for SI.
• Enable auto fire while on shoving penalty.
• Make dual pistols shoot at the same time.
