check this code bro [L4D] Loading Bug Removal/ Door Lock

[cravenge]

AFAIK, you can achieve this by:

PHP Code:

int GetConnectingCount()
{
    int iCount = 0;
    for (int i = 1; i <= MaxClients; i++)
    {
        if (IsClientConnected(i) && !IsClientInGame(i) && !IsFakeClient(i))
        {
            iCount += 1;
        }
    }
    return iCount;
} 


This little code snippet is taken from my latest unreleased versions of Anti-Rush and Lockdown Systems plugins.

It does not show the message when a player is loading or timeout. Any ideas why ?

[JLmelenchon]

Same problem as anti rush plugin, broken finale for the second round. Exclude the last map of campaigns ?

If you need a pre-game readyup/door locking plugin, you can download my Ready-Up plugin, which is available on this thread: https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=2674703

Drop it into maintenance-only mode by editing this line of the /configs/readyup/readyup.cfg:

"skip readyup period?"	"0"	// Does the ready up period not occur? (Global forwards will still occur) 1 - waits for connecting players 2 - game begins when first client loads.

There is an anti-rush module, but you can always write your own, since it has its own, extensive API.

This plugins works well enough for me and is simple to use.

Someone just need to add a cvar to restict gamemode as it is not necessary in survival for example, fix the message when someone is loading, and figure a way to exclude the last map of campaigns as it is breaking the second round of versus sometimes (no hordes, no tanks, no cans on dead center ect).

[JLmelenchon]

I modified the plugin by removing path lock on first map of campaigns as it was useless because there is already the intro, disabled lock sequence for last maps of official campaigns (should fix the second round broken on VS mode i hope), removed the temporary block function of bots as it could cause problems too.

The code definitely still need a little cleaning here and here, but for now it should work and i will see if it fix the problem mentionned above.

Maybe would be better to detect if the "intro entity" exists before removing the temporary block, some users like me remove the intro from some maps with stripper, so it would be a false positive. But this is just a note.

Sorry, but you can still put them back it's just i didn't like that. I'm still searching what could be the reason for the player loading message not appearing.

Edit: In the last section replace PrintCenterText(e, by PrintHintTextToAll and it will fix the message for loaders.
