the idea is simple after an infected zombie is killed start a timer until said player spawns again and print to chat how long the player was in ghost form....

possible events to hook to get this plugin made

PHP Code:

    HookEvent("infected_death", event_InfectedDeath);
    HookEvent("player_death", event_PlayerDeath);
    HookEvent("player_spawn", event_PlayerSpawn); 


Concept.....

PHP Code:

Action event_InfectedDeath(Handle event, const String name[], bool dontBroadcast)    {
    //START A TIMER HERE
}

Action event_PlayerSpawn(Handle event, const String name[], bool dontBroadcast)    {
        //CHECK IF PLAYER IS ON INFECTED TEAM
        //STOP TIMER AND RESET IT BACK TO 0
        //PRINTTOCHAT HOW LONG WAS DEAD FOR
} 


this is kind of related but not really..... this tracks when someone skips death timer by going into spec which is not possible on an official server

This logic may fail when the Tank passes to someone.

[canadianjeff]

certainly better than nothing at all

I killed the same god damn charger 3 times on a valve server I wanna find out how people are skipping the death timer

[canadianjeff]

that feeling in your gut when anticheat is hard in 2021

Probably just a sv_cheats bypass if it is official.

[canadianjeff]

I would imagine that is the case but if it is a sv_cheats bypass they would need to execute a command on the server where my other plugin would detect such a thing......

[Marttt]

but if is a "Valve" server how would your plugin detect such a thing?

[canadianjeff]

so we should all just stop playing on valve servers then

[canadianjeff]

created a issue with LIL ANTI CHEAT on github maybe they can implement this

I don't agree with the way you reported this bug.

LAC is not focused on L4D so is kinda obvious that the plugin author would ask for clarification.

If you expect help, you should explain it briefly and clearly.

Basically what you want is a trigger on player_death event (infected team) that stores the "death time".
If the infected spawns in less than "X" seconds then you may have an auto ban, etc.

Still may check if the event fires when players turns into a tank.

Anyway the logic is above.
