Hello,

I'm currently looking for a way to make SI (all 4 SI, something like a versus simulation) spawn with Tank in coop, but they simply don't want to do that. Can anyone help?

I've tried using Timocop's director overwrite plugin and overwrite the ShouldAllowSpecialsWithTank=true (https://developer.valvesoftware.com/...rector_Scripts), but it doesn't seem to work or needs to be fortified with some cvars or further.

Is there any cvar or plugin that makes it possible?

P.S. I'm convinced it's possible because I've already seen that on a server before (Super Contagion L4D2), unforunately it's down and I was never able to find its owner.

Thank you in advance.

Dont know if u have found the way but... U can make it with VScript, create file *yourgamemode*.nut (forexamle coop.nut or realism.nut), put it into scripts/Vscripts folder.
Write into script file following lines:

Code:
DirectorOptions <-
{
	ShouldAllowSpecialsWithTank = 1
}
There are L4D2 Director options: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/...irectorOptions
Good Luck!

Thanks a lot for replying after a rather long time. It does indeed work.

The only issue I'd mention is the SI-OnTank still spawn less frequently than usual. Do you know if it's possible to modify?

The point being whatever you set with spawn cvars, SI_OnTank_Spawn is less frequent than that. I asked if there are any specific commands to regulate that exact state of spawn.

I'm not sure what it depends on, but the ontank SI spawn seems to vary. I'd say it's pretty fine now as it is.

You can also create a custom plugin that overrides the SI limits and listens for tank spawn, then spawns them in and teleports them to the tank.
