Thanks for the idea! I will add an explosion effect with no damage (I don't see any reason for harming innocent players around the victim) in the next release, when there are enough ideas for updating.

Try to produce the explosion all over the map and not only about the user who dies, I made a single code, but the explosion is created around the player who is affected.

PHP Code:

new Float:vOrigin[3];
pev(id,pev_origin,vOrigin);
    
engfunc(EngFunc_MessageBegin, MSG_PVS, SVC_TEMPENTITY, vOrigin, 0);
write_byte(TE_EXPLOSION);
engfunc(EngFunc_WriteCoord,vOrigin[0]);
engfunc(EngFunc_WriteCoord,vOrigin[1]);
engfunc(EngFunc_WriteCoord,vOrigin[2]);
write_short(g_sprite_explosion); // "sprites/zerogxplode.spr"
write_byte(30);
write_byte(15);
write_byte(0);
message_end();

Don't add this thing if the airstrike is for everyone, i'll look ridiculous.

Have you actually looked over the code? There are screen shakes and fades seen to everybody, if the global airstrike has been triggered. Tripmines and snarkes are also destroyed (to be authentic). So this is the explosion all over the map. I don't get why should I deal with TE_EXPLOSION here.

Some things :

• Don't check if a string is empty with a native like equali, use simply : if( !arg[0] )
• Cache any game message. (ScreenFade, etc..)
• No need to check if task exists before remove it
• In Ultimate_Boom : FYI, the minimum time in set_task is 0.1. You can't go below. So, writting 0.0 will be 0.1. Since this function is called already from a task, it doesn't make sense to use again set_task. Call directly Boom and Kill_Stuff. You can also remove is_user_connected check since you checking if the user is alive after.
• Why are you "removing" the entities of tripmines/snark instead of killing them ? Call Ham_Killed on them, then they will explode with the effects and will be removed automatically.
• About the siren/jet sound : Using stopsound is a poor method since it will be stop any sounds. You should avoid it. If the purpose is to stop a specific sound, the current way is inappropriate. What I suggest : for all players, you can use emit_sound with ATTN_NONE ; it will make the sound everywhere. To stop the sound, simply use the same native but with SND_STOP flag. For a specific player, you can use the engine message SVC_SPAWNSTATICSOUND. Use MSG_ONE, provide a null vector and a valid entity. To stop the sound, use SVC_STOPSOUND with the entity used. Actually you can use such engine message for all players, well, just try & decide. ;)

Unapproved for now.

Well, there are people who are sometimes busy working... And you don't have to blame such people.
I will update the plugin, that's for sure. And thanks for the tips.

No need to justify you. It's unapproved temporary. Like said, it's just to clean up the other section. Once you are active and can make changes, it will be reviewed again.
