[L4D2] Adrenaline Reload

Hey, this is my first submission as a Plugin and I hope you enjoy it.

Description:
This Plugin on the use of Adrenaline allows you to obtain a reload boost on guns for the duration. You can also toggle between whether you need to use an Adrenaline to get that boost.

I recommend writing 'sm_cvar adrenaline_duration' in your server.cfg to match the convar 'l4d_adren_duration'
Don't forget to put the f at the end (Example: if your l4d_adren_duration is 30, set sm_cvar adrenaline_duration to 30.0f)

Updating:
Delete "l4d2_adren_reload.cfg" in ...cfg\sourcemod\l4d2_adren_reload.cfg directory and the plugin will generate a new one

Installation:
Download "l4d2_adren_reload.smx" and place into ...addons\sourcemod\plugins\l4d2_adren_reload .smx directory

Credits:
tPoncho - Huge props for him. I used his script to initiate the fast reload
AlliedModders Wiki - I refered to their reference through out
Testers - of this plugin

CVars:
l4d_adren_plugin_on - (DEFAULT 1). Is the Plugin Active?
l4d_adren_broadcast_on - (DEFAULT 1) - Should clients be notified when connecting to the server?
l4d_adren_broadcast_type - (DEFAULT 1) - How are clients notified? (0 = Chat, 1 = Hint, 2 = Both)
l4d_adren_duration - (DEFAULT 15) - How long does the boost last?
l4d_adren_reload_rate - (DEFAULT 0.5714). Reload rate is multiplied by this value.
l4d_adren_use_on - (DEFAULT 1). If adrenaline needs to be used to get the boost
l4d_adren_give_on - (DEFAULT 1). Give clients adrenaline at round start? (Delayed 30 seconds to prevent loading errors)
l4d_adren_reload_version - 1.0.5. The version of the Plugin

Admin commands (Requires CHEATS flag)
sm_giveadren - Give every survivor Adrenaline at any time

Nice work! I'm going to test this!

There's a bug. I have set it to always fast reload (so when you hold adrenaline you get fast reload) but when you use it up you'll still have fast reload until the map ends.

[Dusty1029]

To clarify, if you turn on l4d_adren_use_on, you need to pop the Adrenaline to get the boost. If it's off, you don't need to use Adrenaline. You always get the boost. At least that's what I think you're asking me O_O

I figured that wehn l4d_adren_use_on = 0 (like I have it) you would only get the boost when you have adrenaline in your inventory, when you then use it or you don't carry it the boost should disappear.

Can you make it like that?

Updated to version 1.0.2

Thanks, works perfectly! Now survivors have a better chance with the adrenaline and it's of great use together with the incapped medsmunch plugin!

I love this plugin, but can you please make a cvar to control if its gonna advertise itself? Also, just an idea, make a cvar to control the firerate.

edit:
it doesn't seem to react to any of the current cvars, I set it to not give adrenaline at each start, but still it does..:/
also the speed rate doesn't seem to be affected. they don't need sm_cvar infront of them do they?

[Dusty1029]

Customizations should be located in ...\cfg\sourcemod\l4d2_adren_reload.cfg

Edit the values there

EDIT: Just tested it with the adren on. Yeah it's giving Adrenaline at round start even when it's off. I'll see if I can fix it ASAP. Gonna be busy for the next few days

EDIT2: Uploaded version 1.0.3

[Jo-Barf_Creepy]

I love the idea! Thanks.

Edit:I lowered the rate since I think your reloading a bit too fast this way.
