banz,

zcs_count_fake_bots set to 1 is what you require for bots to be counted also (this is for limits though). And bots are fakeclients essentially as they are not controlled by a human player.

The director spawn times are governed by two cvars:

z_ghost_delay_max
z_ghost_delay_min

Cooldown currently is enabled for human players, as opposed to bots. Perhaps using that cvar above I'll implement it for bots also sometime.

Hey XBetaAlpha, any chance you'll add Left 4 Dead 1 support?

[[X]BetaAlpha]

ne0cha0s,

Probably will when I've had time to update my old l4d1 server. Been too busy with work at the minute.

Okay, sounds good.

This is an awesome plugin... thanks for doing it.

hm... Any chance this plugin gets ported to l4d1? I tried it for 2 hours and it worked but server crashed many times during usage

It seems if you respawn and change your class - you get full health. Could you set the respawned infected health to their damaged state? I know they all have different health, so set their health to a proportional amount (eg: charger ghosts at 300 health - half, and respawns as a boomer.. he should only half 25 - half health).

Why dont you just disable the ability to change class after respawning?

[dirka_dirka]

that doesnt solve the "problem", only removes an option.

if he chose not to do something about it, that will be the result on my server. but i would rather allow class changing w/o free health gains.

dirka dirka,

I can understand the reason for why you might want something to that effect, however I'm not sure if this is something I want to implement - simply because being able to change character by running out of range after having actually using a previous infected isn't something that should be allowed - i have made it configurable - but my original design choice was not to allow it at all - for the reason of it being abused. I think looking towards making it playable by changing around health would just add unnecessary complexity to the gameplay/plugin - you would always have to look into a percentage of health to reduce AND possibly increase, for example if they had very close to 0 health like 10, they would choose their next character and have %25-50 more health they had? or just 25-50% less health fixed from the next infected's full health no matter how much the previous was played? Depending on character is this actually any benefit at all? as most infected are fairly weak anyway and increasing/decreasing health by small-to-half margins are not going to help a great deal in my view and not likely to discourage players running out of range. I may consider it but it's probably unlikely - it's noted though.
