TF2 Powerup Drops

Description

With this plugin enabled, players will drop Mannpower powerup runes when they get killed. It will work on any map and gamemode regardless of whether it is Mannpower Mode or not.
It's great for fun servers that want to augment the typical deathmatch gameplay, or just make it completely stupid.

Installation:
Drag and drop to your plugins folder.

How it Works:
You can read how each powerup works from the TF2 Wiki. https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Mannpower#Powerups

• If the victim and attacker don't have any powerups, a powerup is created at the victim's corpse and can be picked up by any team.
  The type of powerup is randomly determined and can be customized to exclude certain powerups using the plugin's convars.
• If the victim already has a powerup and is killed by an attacker, the victim drops the powerup they were holding, and the dropped powerup can only be picked up by the attacker's team.
  The dropped powerup will have a special team color to let you know which team can pick it up.
• Players that commit suicide or use the Dead Ringer while holding a powerup will drop it at their corpse (or feigned corpse) for any team to pick up.
• Players can drop their current powerup for any team by using the "dropitem" command, bound to the "L" key by default.
  It's useful if you are holding a powerup and want to swap it with another one on the ground.
• Dropped powerups disappear after a certain amount of time if no one picks them up (15 seconds by default).
  You can configure how long powerups stay dropped in the world using the plugin's convars.
  On Mannpower maps the usual powerup spawns will be removed, so you will only be able to get powerups from killing people.

By default REGENERATION, KING, PLAGUE and SUPERNOVA are disabled. You can re-enable them with the plugin's convars, but they will need tf_powerup_mode 1 and tf_grapplinghook_enable 1 to work properly. PLAGUE doesn't need those commands, but it does need maps that have healthkits (for balance reasons), and will consume nearby healthkits created by other plugins, so I disabled it to be safe.

Changelog

2021-04-18 (1.0.0) - Initial release

Developers:
You can use the plugin's forwards (with the .inc file) in case you want to prevent spawning powerups based on attacker/victim client index.

Suggestions & bug reports are welcome.

So how does this work with MvM? Does every blue bot get a powerup or is it randomised?

We've recently added it to a new TF2 server we're bringing online that uses a game style we're calling Engineer Fortress (humans vs 16 engy bots -- Some of our community regulars requested this, as their other server that used to run this apparently shut down).

Everything works great and there seems to be no issues so far!
