NOTE: currently this plugin is not working correctly, and i don't have time to fix it at the moment. I ask it to be unapproved until further notice. For a working version try http://forums.alliedmods.net/showpos...0&postcount=37 (not tested)

I am currently working on a new updated version...

Same IP Blackout:
--------------------

This plugin will give the admins access to use a command that will scan all the present players and will compare their IPs. Then this command will return to that admin the names of the players who have the same IP.

This way, the admin will know witch players are playing from the same place and are probably ghosting. Also this plugin allows the activation of a new fade to black function that turn the players who has the same IP screen into black. This is an imitation of fade to black.

It will only blackout their screen when they are dead.


Commands:
-------------

• amx_scanips - Scans and prints the players with identical IPs
• amx_printips - Prints the players IPs

Cvars:
--------

• amx_blackout <1|0> - (default: 1) Enable the blackout function for players with similar IPs

Installation:
--------------

• Copy SameIPBlackout.amxx to cstrike/addons/amxmodx/plugins
• Go to cstrike/addons/amxmodx/configs/plugins.ini and add: SameIPBlackout.amxx

Modules:
----------
amxmodx
fakemeta

I will look into that, and maybe implement it and make a cvar whether to choose the fadetoblack or forcechasecam effect.

I would be the best! If you do it the problem of monitoring will be finally solved.

What? How is it an "imitation"? You just do fade to black.

Also, amxmisc is not a module. Fakemeta is a module.

[n0br41ner]

The main idea of fadetoblack is the fact that the users screen is all blacked out. In this case i am blacking out some players screens only so he cannot spectate.

On second thought, i had a small chat with my friend today and the result was: forcing forcechasecam like on a players who have the same IP won't solve anything. What if 3 players with the same IP are playing, 2 goes TERRORIST and the other 1 goes COUNTER TERRORIST. 1 of them TERRORIST players dies, he will still able to spec his teammates, so he will be ghosting about the players positions to the other COUNTER TERRORIST.

I am sorry, but implementing this feature won't be a good idea i guess. But thank you for your suggestion. For now, fade to black will remain the only effect on players with same IPs.

May be just fade to black if there are players with the same IP in different teams? Otherwise mp_forcechasecam effect.
It is not so interesting to see black screen so it can be the reason to loose players. It is a good idea to prevent this when fade to black is not needed really.
And remember not every players with the same IP are monitoring.

[fysiks]

Force them to watch the player that has the same IP in first person.
