1.0.3 update released!

• feature: added 'highest score goes survivor first, except on finale' to use this set the cvar l4d_team_order 5

I highly recommend everyone use l4d_team_order 5 if they are running their own non-competitive server! Usually the highest score goes survivor first, which means that if the winning team from maps 1-4 wins the first round on the finale, the game is now over. Whatever the other team does, it doesn't matter because they already lost.

By having the losing team go survivor first on the finale, this will keep the full game going because they still can win the finale as survivors, and then have the potential to stop the other team as infected.

Hmm, it does seem like there has been some error. Can you paste your error logs please?

Is there any menu commands added yet?

[Downtown1]

Not yet, I'll probably add it at the same time I add a menu version of the printscores command.

Shouldn't the sm_swap command swap player with another player?

Sm_swap player1(source) player2(target)??

How does the the switch currently work if i swap an survivor to a full team of infected??

[Downtown1]

Swap swaps the player to the other team. So if you specify 2 players from opposite teams (i.e. sm_swap playerA playerB and playerA is on survivors, playerB is on infected) then you get the effect of swapping those 2 players.

If you try to swap to a team that is already full, it puts him to spectate and keeps trying every once in a while to swap him to the full team. So I wouldn't try doing that unless you're going to swap one of the people from the full team to the non-full team right after.

Just curious if there is any way you could add functionality to directly manipulate scores. Last night the server timed out after 2 rounds. We restarted on the 3rd level but the scores had been reset. It would be nice if an admin could just hand out points to a team as a handicap or something.

Once the functionality exists it would also open up the possibility alternative scoring systems.

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm curious as to how you would enter player names that contain special characters, or whether you would need to enter a full name - for the swap command.

Also, I've seen people use a plugin with a !swap command that is used in regular teamchat that made the process seem a little easier...

I put this in tonight and experienced all sorts of issues... not sure if it something on my boxes or not, but I'm not thinking so...

I've noticed if I load the plugin after a game has started, it will display the correct scores using sm_printscores. Also it will properly keep the teams together. I'm using order #5, so that the last map the normal method is switched. One thing I've noticed about this: at the end of the game, it says the team that loses actually wins.

Also, if the plugin is loaded at startup, and then it sits in hibernation waiting for a lobby to connect, sm_printscores doesn't work, it only prints "Survivors:" and that's it, no scores.

I think the bigger issue is that the team swapping around doesn't seem to work all the time. We played a round tonight where my team was ahead, and the following round we spawned as infected. The game said we were behind (even though I knew we weren't, first map and we knocked them out before they even had a chance to get out of the apartment) and we made it to the safe house -- clearly we won. But then we were infected first the following round...

Just thought I'd contribute. Here's what I've got loaded:

admin-flatfile.smx admin-sql-threaded.smx adminhelp.smx adminmenu.smx advertisements.smx (displays ads at specified times) antiflood.smx basechat.smx basecomm.smx basecommands.smx basetriggers.smx basevotes.smx clientprefs.smx funcommands.smx funvotes.smx playercommands.smx pluginmanager.smx (allows load/unload of plugins through GUI in game) sounds.smx sourcebans.smx (for sourcebans... lol) sql-admin-manager.smx votemanager2.smx (blocks vote commands... basically being used to block admins from being vote kicked)
