// [Death sprite's brightness]
zp_death_sprite_brightness "255" // [0 - Darkest | 255 - Brightest] Default: 255

//Default: [R]est.[i]n.[P]eace. - Grim Reaper

// [Random or specified sprite] | NOTE: It can be changed during in-game
zp_death_sprite_play "0" // [0 - Random || 1 ~ MAX_SPRITES (See source code for more info) - Specified] Default: 0

// NOTE: All CVars are updated every new round.

Customization
1. At line 5~9, you should see this

PHP Code:

// Customization(You do not need to add "sprites/")
new const DEATH_SPRITE[][] =
{
    "93skull1" // zp_death_sprite_play 1
} 


2. Then, change 93skull1 to your custom sprite. File extension is NOT REQUIRED. And you DO NOT need to add "sprites/" It's already formatted.

Multiple sprite support
Change

PHP Code:

// Customization(You do not need to add "sprites/")
new const DEATH_SPRITE[][] =
{
    "93skull1" // zp_death_sprite_play 1
} 


PHP Code:

// Customization(You do not need to add "sprites/")
new const DEATH_SPRITE[][] =
{
    "93skull1", // zp_death_sprite_play 1
    "YOUR_SPRITE_NAME" // zp_death_sprite_play 2
} 


To change the max sprites can be used:

PHP Code:

// Max sprites
const MAX_SPRITES = 3 


Note: You see zp_death_sprite_play 1/2 as a comment.
It will show you how zp_death_sprite_play works.
Ignore it if you wish to use it as random.

Note:
- Why it doesn't show the sprite when it's enabled?
Answer: Check CVar zp_death_sprite_play and MAX_SPRITES. It MUST NOT be lesser than 0 and more than the value MAX_SPRITES is assigned to.

Plugin updated. Please use the new one. Remember to redownload the sprites as new sprite(The design is still the same but it has better quality)
Sprites credit to georgik57. New CVar has been added by request. If someone has a suitable sound effect for that. I would be greatly appreciated.

HY man i read youre plugin and found some effeciency tricks which you can implement
1- I think caching cvars is not a good idea for this one bcoz death event is not called every 0.01 seconds or some thing as low

2- U should use static variables since they are more faster

3- U should cache is_user_connected instead since it is more effecient

public client_putinserver( id ) g_bIsConnected[ id ] = true

public client_disconnect( id ) g_bIsConnected[ id ] = false

4- You can simple use this:

        if(string[0])
        {
            client_print(victim, print_chat, "%s", string)
        }

Instead of an equali since it will be more effecient !
