Hello, I want to configure SI generation using the director, but I noticed one bug, if you change the MaxSpecial variable often, then at some point, after the infected spawn, other SI will spawn over the limit.
For example, if during 5 minutes of the game the variable Max Special = 4, then reduce the limit to 1, then 3 or 4 SI will spawn one after the other without interruption (according to the limit).
It seems to me that there is a waiting list in the game, in which the task of generating SI is postponed if it was not possible to create them the first time.

Question:
How to reset all timers and tasks of generating Special Infected on a linux server?

I've already tried using director_stop commands, but it doesn't seem to affect the game at all.

PHP Code:

void ResetSpecialTimers()
Reset all special timers (by type and by slot) so that hopefully mobs will spawn asap.

Special Infected Limit requires Left4DHooks. Will absolutely prevent spawning when limit for each class is reached. Does not control total max special limit though. Would be easy to modify and add that in. See the post for cvars to set limits.

Would probably need both maxspecials and dominatorlimit added. As unless I'm mistaken, unless the dominatorlimit is raised/changeable, you can only have so many pinning type of infected at a time.

As a non-academic and most crude solution: [L4D1 & L4D2] Zombie limits

I found out that if the game failed to create SI in time, then the infected may appear in the next timer, how to fix it? At the moment, the solution is the kick of the SI

(The problem is only when using spawn by the director)
