This Metamod: Source plugin flips team spawns between rounds in Day of Defeat: Source. It also flips the newly added invisible spawn walls, as long as you set dod_flip_blockteam. Otherwise it disables the walls after the first flip. If you set dod_flip_filterteam, it will flip filter_activator_team entities, which is what kills you when you try to enter the enemy's spawn in dod_salerno_rc3 and dod_anvil. It is recommended that you add dod_flip_blockteam, dod_flip_filterteam and dod_flip_auto 1 to your server.cfg. Then add dod_flip_auto 0 to map configuration files that you wish for it to be disabled on. You may want to disable it on dod_jagd and dod_colmar, as it can't switch objectives. Offsets as of 2007/07/04 Windows dod_flip_blockteam 872 dod_flip_filterteam 900 Linux dod_flip_blockteam 892 dod_flip_filterteam 920 Binaries and Source * Version 7 * Version 6 * Version 5 * Version 4 * Version 3 * Version 2 * Version 1 Changelog Version 7: Fixed potential crash in respawning players. Version 4: Now flips after the bonus round, not before. Should also properly flip spawn walls when the game flips them itself. If you see something fishy in this release, email me! Version 3: Hopefully fixed dod_flip_auto sometimes not working. Version 2: Added ability to flip filter_activator_team entities.

As the site says, it flips spawns. The source is public domain and the plugin comes with no warranty whatsoever. That said, let me know if you have any problems with the plugin.

If you want to see it in action, you can view its effects on my server, Cantaloupe Island.

Neat idea.
I bet a lot of people will think this is a feature of the big update, heh.

Great Idea, looking forward to trying this on Avalanche etc

Would it work ok if disabled in server.cfg and enabled in separate Cfgs for particular maps, its probably only 3 or 4 of the officials i'd like too run this on at the moment.

Do you have a comprehensive list of Maps that include Spawn Damaging & maybe its worth adding them to your sticky as they come up

I can add dod_churchyard_b5 , dod_smallhill_snowday to the list

Yes, you can just add "dod_flip_auto 0" to server.cfg and add "dod_flip_auto 1" to map cfg files you wish for it to be enabled on.

Version 2 can flip the damage effects. The link to it is in the first post.

When the round ends, do you see "[dod_flip_mm] Flipped!" in your console, or "[dod_flip_mm] Flip failed!"? And what happens when you manually run the "dod_flip" command?

Also, if you could give me temporary access to the server, I could try finding the error myself.

Also also, if you loaded the plugin late (after the server has started), try running "exec server" and then try to cause a round end.

OMG this will be awesome! I will be giving this a try very soon!


*Edit* Just tried this out and it rocks! Nice! Gave ya 5 stars =D

Version 3 is out. I moved the IGameEventManager2::AddListener call to AllPluginsLoaded, so hopefully this will fix the problem with dod_flip_auto not working sometimes when loaded early (via metaplugins.ini).

CMetaModPlugin::Line 64
This can be changed from this...

for (int i = 0; i < 1024; ++i)
{
}

... to this ...

int x = g_Engine->GetEntityCount();
for (int i = 0; i < x; ++i)
{
}

It is kind of funny being on US Army team and having axis vehicles near your spawn.
Honestly most maps are pretty balanced, what would be useful to me is a mod to reshuffle teams if one team dominates too much, say if they win 2 rounds in 10 minutes, reshuffle, throw everyone to spec or something.
