Saferoom Lock: Scavenge

v 1.2.2

Description:
- Antirush plugin that forces the entire team of survivors to cooperate to complete the level.
- Saferoom doors are blocked, when a player tries to open it the scavenge will begin.
- Players must fill the generator with the required amount of gascans.
- When the generator is filled, door will be unlocked and players will be able to pass to the next level.
- Plugin includes an editor to allow server admins to customize the generator and gascan positions.
- Plugin includes a generic config for maps to block saferoom door.
- Not all maps have door blocked. I have not blocked doors in maps that have a final mini-gauntlet event like the rollercoaster in Dark Carnival, or the church holdout in Death Toll. If you want to block these saferoom doors, do it by yourself and don't ask me to do that.
- This plugins supports translations (currently english and spanish).

Credits:
- Silvers: for helping with the standalone plugin to prevent the use of non-scavenge gascans.

Installation:
- Unzip the contents zip file inside left4dead2/addons/sourcemod.

- Optional: [L4D2] Scavenge Pouring - Unleaded Gas only. Install Silvers plugin and set l4d2_block_gascan_types "1".

Reserved for editor tutorial.

LMAO!

What a great, innovative idea on such an old, longlasting issue.

[VladimirTk]

Is an extra installation necessary or is it possible that this add-on collides with another? Maybe against SKYY events, install it where it should be and it does not generate the scavenge events that I mention
What am I missing?
Excuse me, I don't speak English at all

So the scavenge event is not called. Maybe some plugin is interfering and doesn't allow my plugin to find the saferoom door. So if you can see the generator in the map, but the door opens correctly and does not start the scavenge... Then yeah, we have a compatibility problem

[VladimirTk]

in console

Configuration file "data/l4d2_safelockscavenge.txt" not found.
Plugin can't spawn scavenge entities, plugin will not work.

I checked that folder and if I have it installed

I found the problem, it is because of the file type
in its publication the file l4d2_safelockscavenge.cfg is downloaded
but the plugin requires l4d2_safelockscavenge.txt


Here

addons/sourcemod/data/l4d2_safelockscavenge.txt

I really liked your plugin so they no longer rushean on my server, thanks

Ok now plugin should work with .cfg file, thanks.

Hello. I loved this plugin and it makes it a challenge when it comes to testing to reach the saferoom by completing one last objective.

Even so, with version 1.1 it improved and now it works perfect. But there is a problem, when I start the scavenge and I go to place the cans, it does not make a notification noise and it shows me on the HUD how many cans we have completed. Even so when I fill all the cans on the map, the door remains unlocked but the HUD stays at 0/8 without even counting the cans you filled.

I do not know what this problem will be and I do not know what error it will be. If you know, I appreciate it.

Sometimes some of the cans don't spawn. Not sure if its a config issue or whatnot when it picks the cans to spawn. No error in the logs either.
