[CS:S] Ammo From Dead

TnTSCS · **Author**

This plugin changed scope on 12/31/11 - it is now Ammo From Dead instead of Ammo Pickup

This plugin was a request - read about it here

DESCRIPTION
When a weapon is dropped as a result of a player's death, an ammo box will be dropped alongside the weapon. The weapon entity's extra ammo will be set to 0 and the ammo box will contain what the extra ammo was. If the weapon had 15 in the clip with 75 reserve, the ammo box will have 75 rounds.

It will also record the weapon type (Rifle, Pistol, or Shotgun) and the ammo type. There are CVars (see below) where you can deem if a player can fill their ammo even if the ammo type is different. You can also set this plugin to abide by weapon ammo max so that players cannot pick up more than the default ammo max allowed.

Explanation of allowing or disallowing picking up ammo of the same type if the weapon that dropped it was different - player1 dropped their MP5 rifle and a box of 9mm ammo was dropped from that weapon. If player2 has a glock (which is 9mm) and you have mixed ammo set to "allow" then player2 can pick up that 9mm ammo - if, on the other hand, you have mixed ammo set to "disallow" then player2 cannot pick up that ammo even though their glock uses the same ammo type.

There are three models for the ammo boxes (all included with CS:S, so no need to have anything downloaded to your clients). A model for shotgun ammo, a model for pistol ammo, and a model for rifle ammo. There's also two sound files (also included with CS:S, no need for a download) that fires when players pick up the ammo (you define which one you want to use).
Here are the three models:

You can also set to only allow players to drop pistol ammo, or only drop rifle ammo, or be able to drop both. Also, you can set if bots drop ammo or not.

Also, this plugin is Updater capable and a CVar is present (defaulted to off) so you can set whether this plugin gets auto-updated or not (if you have the Updater plugin).

mmm - suggest something :)

INSTALLATION
Copy the SMX file to your plugins folder. If you want to compile yourself, you'll need SDKHooks include and Updater include files. The web compiler will not compile the .sp, so you'll need to download the attached .smx.

Also, you need to put the giveammo.txt in your gamedata folder.

A config file will be created when you first launch this plugin - it will be in your cfg\sourcemod folder named plugin.ammo_from_dead.cfg

UPGRADING?
If upgrading to a new version that has new CVars, it's best to backup your old config file and delete it, then let the plugin create a new one for you, then edit that newly created one. This way, you get all of the available configs so you can set the way you want.
