Hello,

I'm looking for a way to get an array with all the items spawned (item name + quantity) at the beginning of each map (Left 4 Dead 2).
This concerns pipes, molotov, bile, defib, medkits, pills, adrenaline, gas, oxygen, propane, weapons, melee weapons, etc...

I would like to be able to parse this array from a function of my plugin.

I'm pretty new to plugin dev, thanks for your help

Jane.

You can use SDKHooks' spawn and delete hooks and do it yourself.

Thanks for your reply.

I had a look at SDK Hooks but it seems that it doesn't do what i'm looking for.
I want a way to count the items spawned by the game itself.

For example, let's say the game spawned 5 pipes around the map:
- I want my plugin to know that there is 5 original pipes on the current map,
- Then i will remove them (still dunno how, i'm still at the thinking process),
- Finally, i'll spawn 5 pipes where i want them to be.

Look at how the Item Removal Plugins (of Crow, Confogl, Srsmod) work and add a counter to them. Removing them is simply RemoveEdict(Entity) As for spawning, thats entirely your choice xD

Sounds like a very good solution.
Thank you AtomicStryker!

Teleport the items ...Lol
Sdkhooks is exactly what you need
it has the public onentitycreated then inside of it hook the entity for spawn then teleport it or delete or what ever

Oh okay i see now.
I'll explore on this side too, thanks! ;)
