This plugin replicates the showtriggers_toggle console command without the need of sv_cheats. If you're not familiar with what it does, it basically loops through all trigger entities on the map and toggles their visibility.

There is only one command and it is sm_showtriggers
Here is a demo of how it looks like:



I have only tested it on CS:S but on theory it should work for any game.

Thanks to:

• unt0uch4bl3 for the idea itself as I've personally seen this in action first on KSF Surf.

• Pan32 for introducing me to the idea and inspiring me to make this plugin.

Feel free to alter the source code to your needs. I am not sure if I'll be taking feature requests at this point in time.

Changelog: v1.1 14-11-16 - Got rid of compiler warnings / deprecated functions and translated the script to the new syntax. Thanks to Pan32. v1.0 12-11-16 - Initial release.

Nice idea! I've found myself wanting to display triggers in a live server before, but not possible due to the sv_cheats requirement.

A couple compilation warnings:

// G:\sourcemod 1.8\scripting\showtriggers.sp(32) : warning 234: symbol "FindSendPropOffs" is marked as deprecated: Use FindSendPropInfo instead, or HasEntProp if you just want to check for existence.
//
//
// G:\sourcemod 1.8\scripting\showtriggers.sp(37) : warning 234: symbol "FCVAR_PLUGIN" is marked as deprecated: No logic using this flag ever existed in a released game. It only ever appeared in the first hl2sdk.

Compiled against SM 1.8.

Tested, works well with CS:GO!

Why make it so complicated? Just use Map Viewer...

This is interesting, and could be useful on TF2 jump servers too.

But I can't get it to work there even after recompiling with 1.8. Any ideas?

Because this is a helpful tool for when you're in-game and want to see triggers, for example while zoning maps on a surf server.

Just because it's not useful for you doesn't mean it's useless for everyone.

Hey, I tested it and it works for me. I'm using the latest stable MM and SM builds. Here's a screenshot: https://hostr.co/file/bP1WgM1J6ysT/20161112170150_1.jpg

If you could give me some more details, I might be able to investigate the issue further and help you.

Thanks for the feedback I will get rid of the warnings and update the OP with the modified version of the script. I'll mostly likely do that after AI_'s TF2 issue is resolved (just in case there's anything I'd have to modify again).

Good stuff, I can see a lot of uses for this when testing maps. Thank you.

I got it to work after a reboot. Thanks for the plugin!

I'll share this with the rest of the jump community.

Made a quick edit, so instead of going through the entity classname, it goes by its netclass (CBaseTrigger). This will allow some other triggers like func_buyzone, func_bomb_target and others to also show up, however it will only work on games in which the triggers have that base netclass, like csgo (css, ie, considers all triggers a CBaseEntity).

EDIT: Fixed the buffer

[FlaminSarge]

On TF2, I've noticed that all triggers are CBaseEntity, but they all have a certain set of datamap properties (m_hTouchingEntities, m_hFilter, m_iFilterName). It's possible you could use a datamap lookup to filter triggers (using Prop_Data).
