is it possible to have a plugin increase the max players in coop?

I have tried Superversus, Multislots, Bebop, etc and none of those plugins actually do their job for Coop.

SuperVersus is what i've had most luck with. While it works great for versus, campaign/coop is bugged to hell and back. Each round some survivors would swap characters and hence mess up their load outs.

I just want a plugin that allows the original 4 players to have their own characters, and spawn new bots for additional players to play. I dont want them switching around, players get mad even though its not that big of a deal. I can somewhat understand though since its no fun to have your character and guns and items taken from you and given to another player.


The other thing is that new players join back at the saferoom or need to be rescued, instead of ideally spawning with the group.




If there is no plugin to do these seemingly simple tasks, while many claim to, could anyone point me in the right direction to write a plugin like this?

I do like that one, however, it spawns bots at the beginning of the map.

So if you joined my server while we were playing, you'd have to travel the whole map by yourself, or we'd have to come back for you.

or in the case of custom maps (like questionable ethics) the player may or may not be able to come at all, since the paths get blocked.

So thats why it doesn't work out so great :/ If Bebop added an option to have them spawn on the players, rather than at the start of map, it would be perfect.

No.
It's will auto create a bot when a player connect to your game/servers when player more than 4,not start of map.
If a player is disconnecting from the server/game. plugins will auto remove that bot right away.

You only need to do is set maxplayer number

Oh, i probably said it incorrectly, what i meant was if 4 ppl are playing on my server and you want to join, it will spawn a bot for you, yes, but it spawns the bot at the beginning of the map. the first safe room. I dont mean at the beginning of the round.

So i'm trying to say when it creates the bot for additional players, it spawns him in the wrong place. It should spawn him with the group should it not? yet it has no option for that.... its totally possible though, but i'm not good at source pawn yet or else i'd just make the necessary edits myself.

*sigh* That one does what its supposed to... in coop. My server can also be versus, and unfortunately, multislots breaks versus :/ The infected team can't spawn.

try botcreator it does work with versus as long as you have 1.4.0 sm and score team manager installed http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthr...ght=botcreator It seems buggy with windows servers however works well with linux servers.

http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthr...e+team+manager

If you dont want the bots to spawn remove/dont install the score team manager plugin but i dont know for certain if a person will join into a new created bot or not as ive never tried it that way before, plus designing your server for 10v10 and then only haveing 4 surivors intially is goner cause easy survivor death as its not designed for 4-9 against the infected.

ps forgot to mention if you use this http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthr...=config+loader you can run multislots or whatever for coop and botcreator or whatever for versus completely seperately.

Oh ok thanks :]


I set it up again with l4dtoolz and superversus, and everything works except I'm lacking all the 8+ player glitch fixes.

The most important one likely being the defib fix, however it crashes my server now at seemingly random times. So i had to remove the fix :/

i wrote a plugin that pretty much makes bebop, superversus, etc., obsolete. In coop, there are no bots. in versus, there are bots to balance the teams (i.e. 4 infected players, 2 human players + 2 bots. 5 infected players, 4 human players + 1 bot, etc.)
When a new player is connected to survivor, it teleports that player to a living survivor, so they don't start at the beginning of the level.
