I haven't added much but if anyone using this plugin and its modules are on SM 1.10.0.6317 or higher, I'd appreciate it if you guys could test the version I uploaded on the GitHub repository under the v8.42 branch. I haven't committed to the master branch since v8.42 is taking a BIG leap from v8.41.

Significant changes in v8.42 so far:

From a dev perspective:

1. New code introduced in SM 1.9 and SM 1.10.

From a user perspective:

1. Changed file path of the configs from cfg/sourcemod to addons/sourcemod/data.
2. Restructured the config file to have more subsections for better organization.

Overall, these current changes don't really affect how the whole plugin behaves in-game. Hence why testers are welcome to test it out and report any bugs.

Future updates may or may not include these current changes. (Apologies to those who still use SM 1.8)

For the LAST BOSS, all of the abilities from that plugin are already available in Super Tanks++.

As for Hulking Tank, only some of the abilities from that plugin are in Super Tanks++ because the rest are for human-controlled Tanks which I no longer support.

Some random person was dumb enough to think that they could just put all that into a .VPK file and make it work. What you want to do is download the latest stable branch of Sourcemod, Metamod, and get a .VDF file for L4D2. 2. It is possible to host a local server via lobby and get Sourcemod to work. You don't need a dedicated server if you just want to play once in awhile with plugins. However, if you are planning to play avidly, you're better off going through the process of setting up your own local dedicated server so that you can hop on it anytime without hosting from your game. Make sure that the dedicated server isn't running on the same computer though because you and other players that join the dedicated server will either lag like hell or get disconnected a lot. 3. Hosting a local server can also be done via console, but no one else would be able to join since it's considered as a "single player" server. You can start a campaign by typing "map <map name>" in console. Example: map c1m1_hotel *Note: Starting a campaign via console will allow you to use sv_cheats.

I managed to adapt your supertank plug-in for my hard-core server. It was necessary to set extra health of tanks everywhere to zero. I wanted to test the work of the plug-in with my friends. But there is a problem.
My provider does not give open gaming ports. So I tried to install the sourcemod and metamode in the gaming client L4d2 on Steam. I thought that if I go with my plug-ins to the official Steam server, my plug-ins will work there and I can play with my friends. But when you enter on the Steam server, the plugins do not work. Plugins work only if I create a local server in the lobby. But my gaming ports are closed. I do not know if Steam opens the game port 27015, when I create a local game in the lobby? Maybe you know this?

You can't get plugins to work on servers that don't have SourceMod installed. Since you only installed them in your game folder, you can only use them if you host the server yourself. That's the reason why they only work for you when you create a lobby. By creating a local server from the lobby, you are telling the game to use your computer as the server.

Make sure you have SM 1.10.0.6317 or higher. Read the README.md file on GH for the requirements...

Fantastic, every update that you are taking out I am using it in my game with friends and it fascinates us but I would like you to clarify a doubt, SM versions 1.10.0.6317 or higher if I'm not mistaken are trial versions and that makes me think that it can cause some faults or that my other complements work differently ... what can you tell me about it? I would appreciate it if you would clarify that point so I can consider updating to this version of sourcemod or wait until it is released as a stable version.
