Done. Thanks for the help testing. Shows that the SDKCall is many many times faster than the VScript version.

Thanks for the helping sorting this out.

Are you sure the servers actually running the latest SM?

1.110 (15-Jul-2022)
    - Added L4D2 native "L4D2_NavAreaBuildPath" to replace the "L4D2_VScriptWrapper_NavAreaBuildPath" native VScript wrapper. Requested by "morzlee". Thanks to "Forgetest" for helping.
    - Changed native "L4D_GetNearestNavArea" to accept some more parameters. Suggested by "Forgetest".

    - Various minor code changes to adjust for splitting the project (cleaner comments and better error handling when compiling the split project files). Thanks to "Psyk0tik" for some help.
    - Since adding this native proved how difficult it is jumping around files, I may merge the project again. Or maybe privately and split for release with the batch script I wrote to package the plugin.

    - Updated: Plugin and test plugin.
    - Updated: "left4dhooks.inc" Include file.
    - Updated: "left4dhooks.l4d2.txt" GameData file.
    - Updated: all "/scripting/l4dd/" project files.

I forgot to set default params for plugins compiled against older versions. If you recompile that plugin with the latest left4dhooks include it'll work fine. Will fix for next update. Thanks.

Is it possible to make these plugins runable?

Hello Silver, it is a pleasure to be able to write to you again to see if you could solve a problem.
Not long ago you added "L4D_ForcePanicEvent", this to produce panic events, I don't know if you know, but in L4D1 for some reason, panic events are restricted to one every minute and a half, so yes for example, I use "L4D_ForcePanicEvent", close to the elevator event of No Mercy for example, when I activate the elevator, there will be no more horde, there will be no panic event, and the same thing happens the other way around, if I activate the elevator and already cause a panic event, there won't be a second event if I use "L4D_ForcePanicEvent", THIS ALSO HAPPENS IF THERE ARE 2 CONSECUTIVE PANIC EVENTS IN THE GAME, AND FOR SOME REASON YOU PASS THE FIRST EVENT TOO FAST.

Use "z_spawn mob auto" instead of L4D_ForcePanicEvent.

This won't affect director panic event/map event/alarm car/boomer horde, and can call it multi times to spawn multi hordes

PHP Code:

void LaunchHorde()
{
    int anyclient = GetRandomClient();
    if(anyclient > 0)
    {
        char sCommand[16];
        strcopy(sCommand, sizeof(sCommand), "z_spawn");
        int flags = GetCommandFlags(sCommand);
        SetCommandFlags(sCommand, flags & ~FCVAR_CHEAT);
        FakeClientCommand(anyclient, "z_spawn mob auto");
        FakeClientCommand(anyclient, "z_spawn mob auto"); // horde twice
        SetCommandFlags(sCommand, flags);
    }
}

Thank you very much Harry, but is there a way to avoid this time restriction for the game's own events?

[Drixevel]

public void OnPluginStart() {
	float reloadtime = GetReloadTime("weapon_rifle_ak47");
	PrintToServer("weapon_rifle_ak47 = %.2f", reloadtime);
}

float GetReloadTime(const char[] class) {
	return L4D2_GetFloatWeaponAttribute(class, L4D2FWA_ReloadDuration);
}

weapon_rifle_ak47 = 0.00

Am I missing something or does this not work properly? Seems to only work properly with shotguns.

[Silvers]

Looks like 0.0 = default speed. When I change to 0.5 it shows 0.5 and reloads quickly, when I change back to 0.0 it's at default speed.

Edit: You can find all values in the Mission and Weapons - Info Editor weapons config.
