EDIT: For those who want the custom campaigns that have scavenge finales, I'll be posting mine so you can just put it in your data folder directly.

EDIT 2: Guess bazrael beat me but I have the complete one.
I want.

Any way to make the bots not run away from each other? Been testing this with all bot team on the dead center finale and they're constantly running off on their own and dying.

this plugin sadly no longer seems to work right... the bots pickup the gas cans, then go to a far corner room and just throw them out of bounds like there trolling you.. really sad as i loved this mod.

my only 2 complaints were

1: the bots now troll you.

2: even if you play on easy and get all 8 cans, the bots still go and look for the others

So I have a problem with the bots. When playing, the bots don't head to the gas tank as they instead go elsewhere. I did all the steps right but somehow it doesn't work. Can you help me?

I wish it worked like on the paper, but in reality the bots spread too much and I have never actually seen the bots collect 0+ gas cans + they always ignore fallen teammates

Does the author still support this potentially useful plugin? coz I can't get it to work for some of the campaigns, even with the authors own cfg file installed.

A have also another suggestion for this plugin so it could be useful in other ways, maybe something a coder could consider in the future perhaps:

If the bots can't' follow the existing rules in the old cfg file anymore. How about the bots be additionally instructed by the player using an "!command" such as "!bot_pickup_can" - so that the AI-bots pick-up any gas-can that is located a certain distance to where the player(s) is standing, and then have the bots follow the player/s back to where the cans need to be dropped.

Then the player could issue another command such as !bot_drop_can" and the player could just pour the fuel into the generators or car petrol tanks. This way, rather than the player carrying the can/s, the player can better protect the bots while they're running along with the player/s to the destination spot.

Or optionally even, have the bots carry the cans on their backs like they do in Hard Rain campaign, then that way they could still use their weapons, instead of resorting to using melee-shove when they're holding the cans.

Ofc, this could also be useful to player/s for a bot/s to pick-up other items too, such as the coke bottles in the 'Dead Center' map 2 panic event. Or even pickup and drop oxygen- and propane tanks, using other player commands like:

!bot_pickup_propane
!bot_drop_propane

If the author is not interested in updating this plugin anymore, would some other creative coder here be interested in taking up this challenge. Personally, I think this idea would add some real extra fun mechanics to the game.

Thoughts anyone?

I had to fix some co-ordinates on the 'Death Sentence' and 'Daybreak' campaigns, as the co-ords given in post 25 didn't work on my server. Should anyone else want these they are:

PHP Code:
    "l4d2_daybreak05_rescue"
    
{
        
"origin"    "5963.02 6385.75 -4479.96"
        "angles"    "29.39 -162.40 0.0"    
    
}

    
"death_sentence_5"
    
{
        
"origin"    "-2119.77 1911.46 -564.96"
        "angles"    "60.47 -3.71 0.0"
    

Hopefully useful to someone here.
