Cool plugin BUT:
1. It needs a cvar to configure beam time duration. It's a simple thing but very useful.
2. Also it needs announce itself when client authorizes. I mean something like "Type 'deathbeam' to configure..." in chat
3. AutoExecConfig() needed!
4. Translations support is a good idea too. ;)

Just checking. Did the offsets for this change since the recent tf2 update?

So, as the author don't wanna to support his plugin, I take care of it.
I've just updated the script. The next changes have been made:

• Added death_beam_time cvar to configure beam time duration
• Added config autocreation/execution

I think everyone will find this update useful

Tipsy Snake, I think there are 2 major features require for this plugin:

• Translations support
• Client preferences integrattion

1. Translation.
It's easy to add but I think it's unnecessary thing because there is nothing to translate only two words in menu

2. Client preferences
Maybe someone need this but not me I found the default settings the best for me. And I also think there is no need to let users configure beam, administarator can do it once and for all.

It doesn't matter how many words in there. SM is an international scripting platform and I know that most of the non-english admins just won't install plugin if it hasn't translation support. It is really important. And client preferences integration is also needed because "clientprefs" API was designed exactly for such plugins. At the moment this version of plugin is worser than death beam functionality of Mani Admin that was created 3+ years ago! That is really sad.

...or the lazy asses who want it in a different language can just edit the plugin and replace the -two- words themselves.

Not everyone know how to edit plugins.

Seems pretty simple to me.

Furthermore, under what theory are the competent supposed to cater to the incompetent?
