Update: This plugin will no longer be supported. It has been completely overhauled and re-written. You can find the new version here.

Based on the Self Help plugin, this version allows self reviving without the cost of medical supplies and restores the animations for incapacitation and ledge grab revives. Special infected grabs can be escaped with the option of not killing the attackers. Bot survivors will automatically attempt to help themselves.

Installation
Place .smx files in the sourcemod/plugins directory, .txt files into the sourcemod/gamedata folder. Original documents with the .sp extension can be edited in notepad++ and stored in sourcemod/scripting for compiling.

sry for my stupid question , but where i must put the cvars ?
in server.cfg ?

[nagypocak]

no, the plugin will automaticly create a configuration file named l4d_2_selfrevive.cfg - in the games cfg/sourcemod folder - after the first run, with the default settings as seen above. you can afterwords make changes into this file, or in-game using the appropriate cvar command.

Strange, when I get caught by infected in Co-Op and I want to break free, I see no progress bar. I hold the key very long but nothing. This is my CFG -

What is the problem? Also no errors in the logs.

Maybe there are issues with the key or button that you've assigned to duck. The default is ctrl. Try that and see if it works. Maybe I can add a cvar to customize the button.

[chinagreenelvis]

Wait, you can self help from incap but not special infected? What happens when you're grabbed by a special and they drain your life until you're incapped? Does it start to work then?

Yes. I can only self-help from ledge or incap, but not Infected.

[chinagreenelvis]

I was just playing on my server and I ran into an issue where after dying and being rescued, I could no longer save myself from an S.I., but it was shortly remedied after having been incapped and revived a couple of times. I went in and checked the code to add a few minor fixes and added some events for player deaths, rescues, client connects and disconnects.

Try it again with the new version. I recommend starting up a local server, enabling cheats, setting sb_hold_position to 1, and then spawning a smoker to grab you in another room.

If you're still having problems, go into the sourcecode and uncomment "//" all of the lines reading PrintToChatAll and see where it stops.

[chinagreenelvis]

Hm. There does seem to be a problem actually.

[chinagreenelvis]

Okay, I think I got it working! Give her a whirl.
