Can't thank you enough mate. I'll install this on my server and give it a test drive later tonight. Cheers!

Skorpion: Part of the reason I show the clientID is to help differentiate between players and bots also. I will add a convar to allow you to turn them off if you wish, though.

New version posted. 1.2.0

l4d2_BwA_Show_ClientID - "Show the clientid next to the player name in the panel [0 = No|1 = Yes], Default = 1.

I added this line to my server.cfg:

l4d2_BwA_Print_Chat_MsgType 0

But it still uses the verbose/coloured text when I swap players :/

Iconoclast:

I just left one line out when I edited the last version. It should be good now if you just re-download the plugin.

Works fine! There is only one last thing that this plugin "should" check before allowing someone to switch to the other team: player count of destination team.

Before the switch takes place, it would be cool if there was a check, that counts the players on the destination team. If player count (dest. team) > player count (current team) --> no switch. A simple PrintToChat(client,...), which informs the player that the switch cannot be performed due to balance. The check only needs to be performed for regconsolecmds, not for admin cmds, and for the panel where you can press 2 or 3.

When the servers are full, this is not necessary, but when 50-75% full, players tend to fill one team, so it´s like 10vs4, instead 7vs7.

It already checks if the teams are full before switching. And as much as I like to accommodate as many peeps as possible, I am not going to change this to a team balancing thing, that is not its intended use. Although if you really wanted it, I might be talked into making the change in a version just for you.

Great! I'll upload the new version and give it a try! Cheers!

I added one small console command as a favor, but I am not going to update the version for it.

It is "jointeam". It will automatically choose the team with less players, or if equal, a random selection for you to join.

It is not affected by the allow pubs convar so you can turn off the other join commands and leave this one operational if you wish.
