Transparent Weapons have been removed from the core plugin and implemented as an add-on plugin.
Reloading boss modules should no longer glitch out the core plugin. I've added a mechanism such so that when a boss module has been reloaded and it reinvokes RegisterBoss, RegisterBoss will check if the plugin indeed was already registered but also checks if the plugin handles were changed.

Unloading boss modules is not recommended.

Hi, looking for someone who can create me a few bosses for vsh 2.0.

Add me if interested so we can talk about. Would pay per boss.

Thanks!

Is there any way to disable the ammo boxes that spawn every round? Haven't seen any option for it in the config file.

try setting "vsh2_spawn_ammo_kit_limit_min" and "vsh2_spawn_ammo_kit_limit_max" to 0.

[Dayornight]

Well, in the config it states that "vsh2_spawn_ammo_kit_limit_max 0" will add unlimited amounts of boxes. So there really isn't a way to disable them.

I'm afraid that's not correct. It's something I likely overlooked as I improved the mod over the years. Try putting it at 0 anyway. I will correct the config message for the cvars. Sorry for the mistake.

[Dayornight]

I have tried putting both "vsh2_spawn_ammo_kit_limit_min" and "vsh2_spawn_ammo_kit_limit_max" to 0, but as stated before, it does in fact spawn an unlimited amount of boxes.
However, sometimes it's in the BLU spawn and sometimes in the RED spawn. It's odd.

Also, is there any way to fully disable the control point from being activated? I use another plugin right now to force disable it, but I'd rather have it done via the Saxton Hale plugin.
