Sounds like a fun plugin. Can you add the ability to set the HP of the tank, and set how many tanks to spawn?

There a plugin that lets a person take command of a tank for l4d1, you could take some of that code and force players to take control of the tank so it's never the bot.

But it would be cool to spawn 2 tanks but at half HP.

Another thing you could add is spawning a horde.

I added the horde feature that Thraka was talking about.

l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_tank_after_overtime
l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_tank_after_score_tied
l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_tank_after_cans_count

Those commands still do the same thing, but I've added a few more:

l4d2_scavengehorde_spawn_horde_after_overtime
l4d2_scavengehorde_spawn_horde_after_score_ti ed
l4d2_scavengehorde_spawn_horde_after_cans_cou nt

Which do the same thing as the tank versions, but obviously for the horde.

This plugin needs fixing. It doesn't work everytime.

Where do i put these commands? it seems that if I put them in my server.cfg they dont seem to work....

Secondly....Ive been trying to use this on our server, however there are a few bugs....

1) The commands to spawn the tank do not always work from rcon
2) It seems that only one team keeps getting the tank, and not the other.
3) I had the 2 cans spawn working once, but after the map changed it didnt seem to work.


The biggest problem is that only one side gets the tank. ie: If Team A starts as infected and gets a tank, Team B will never get a tank when they are infected. Also, Admin Cannot Spawn tanks for Team B but can for team A.

plugin abandoned?

[pAter]

I dunno....would be nice if someone could look at it cuz its actually pretty cool...when it works- especially having the tanks come after 2 or 3 gas cans - just what scavenge mode needed.

[xibit1987]

Well i had it working for both teams but it didn't follow any of the cvars... it was just random o.O

The idear behind this os so damn awsome, so it would be sad if it was abandoned. maby a better coder could look into it?

EDIT: Every thing works like a charm now with the above plugin GOOD WORK!

Now we just need Force player tank Built in to this plugin

Some of the logic looks slightly wrong, but the plugin seems sound (code wise). I don't think she abandoned it, it's only been like a week since the original posting.

If there was an explaination of what events fire when and under what circumstances, I may be able to whip an alternative to it.
