[L4D2] Director Settings Loader
Version: 1.0.1
This plugin was made a long time by me and my brother, for our 8 players coop server. I decided to share it today
Description:
This plugin will load specific custom director settings based on the current game difficulty. Currently, it only supports Cooperative and Realism game modes only. The admin will be able to edit the director settings, according to his needs or customer needs.
The possible settings that can be configured, are include on a few .nut files on the attached .zip file.
Installation:
-Extract the l4d2_directorsettings_loader.zip file on your left4dead2 folder.
How to edit the settings:
To edit the director settings, go to left4dead2/scripts/vscripts folder and search for the director script you are looking for (Director_Advanced_Settings, Director_Normal_Settings, etc) and open it with notepad or any text editor. A detailed description for every setting is next ot its value. You can only modify the value, so do not delete any setting on the script.
The scripts comes with default values, perfect for a Cooperative of 8 players server.
Answer to possible questions:
-
What is the "Sustain Peak" mode of the director?
Refers to the maximum time of frustration or anger of the survivors. For example, after being mobbed.
-
What is the "Relax" mode of the director?
Comes after the survivors reach their maximum frustration or intensity value. While in relaxed mode, director wont spawn any mobs, or special infected. However, those common or special infected that have already been spawned may attack
-
What are the possible values for the setting "PreferredMobDirection" ?
This setting should not be changed in the game. But, here is the list of possible values:
Code:
SPAWN_ABOVE_SURVIVORS
SPAWN_ANYWHERE
SPAWN_BEHIND_SURVIVORS
SPAWN_FAR_AWAY_FROM_SURVIVORS
SPAWN_IN_FRONT_OF_SURVIVORS
SPAWN_LARGE_VOLUME
SPAWN_NEAR_IT_VICTIM (Refers to a vomited victim)
SPAWN_NO_PREFERENCE
Warning:
Increasing the amount of common and special infected might and will affect network performance. Adjust the settings for the best gameplay, but keep in mind that the network performace will be affected by huge amount of infected at the same time. Use with caution.
