This plugin will spawn tanks and/or a hordes and/or a witch in scavenge mode.

A tank/horde/witch will spawn if
- a specific gas count is reached
- there is an overtime (only once a round)
- the second team tied the score
(or by using a server command)

CVars:
l4d2_scavengetank_version "1.0.11"

l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_horde_after_overtime "1"
l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_horde_after_score_tie d" "1"
l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_horde_after_cans_coun t" "0"

l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_tank_after_score_tied " "0"
l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_tank_after_cans_count " "5"

l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_witch_after_overtime" "0"
l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_witch_after_score_tie d" "0"
l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_witch_after_cans_coun t" "5"

Server Commands:
l4d2_scavengetank_force_horde_spawn
l4d2_scavengetank_force_tank_spawn
l4d2_scavengetank_force_witch_spawn

"added chat notification on spawn" Can we get a cvar to enable/disable this notification?

[triggerman]

can you add an option to spawn a witch every certain number of cans?

I should get some credit for the "Idea".

@thejuice027: Sorry

I tested the witch spawning and it seems possible. My idea is that the witch will spawn near a gas can and not randomly or near the car/generator.

sounds even cooler that way.

way to go die this has been working great
i did notice something with the sound as well. it says that the sound file is not precatched (in server console) everytime it trys to play it.

Hello, like the plugin although some people find it lame...especially when they lose...
Here's the problem.
Sometimes I can't change can count, the last time it was set to 5, I tried changing to 7 but it went to 3.
Then somehow it got stuck at 2.
(for your information I host a local server, since my connection is good enough)
Most of the times it works great though.
Also somehow since I host I seem to get the tank all the time...very rare for someone else to get tank.
Just a request, since it gets predictable.
Is it possible to get random tank at random time, or cans?
So instead fix 5 cans for example tank comes at 2...then at 8 cans etc.
So you never know when the tank comes?
Or at random times....like after 1 minute...then 2 minutes or after 1 minute 10 seconds? Maybe even at both time and cans?

Hello, it's a great and funny plugin but unfortunately not very reliable. If I set l4d2_scavengetank_spawn_tank_after_can_count = 8 then sometimes the tank spawn at every 4 or 2 cans. If I set cvars at server.cfg the tank doesn't spawn at all but the horde spawns so the plugin is loaded. If I query the cvars from the server console it seems that all of it has the correct values. If I reset the tank spawn related cvar from the server console then the tank will spawn but mostly at wrong can count.

An idea: it would be great to spawn a tank if remaining scavenge time is more than a preconfigured value (e.g. 10 or 2:00 minutes).
