A rewrite of Jerrith's original Survivor Upgrades, with fixes and loads of added features!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
What does it do?
This plugin gives Survivors Upgrades to help them in the game. Specific Upgrades can be disabled by ConVars and you can also configure which gamemodes to enable Survivor Upgrades for. By default, Survivor Upgrades is only enabled on coop and survival, disabled for versus because of balance issues.
Survivors can get upgrades at the following times:
- When the player starts the game (Default 3 upgrades at spawn)
- When a tank spawns or dies (primary attacker can get extra upgrade)
- When a witch spawns or dies or dies by being cr0wned (headshot-killed) (primary attacker can get extra upgrade)
- When a survivor kills a number of infected. (Default 100)
- When a survivor heals another survivor with a configurable minimum amount of health to heal (Default 50 hp)
- When a survivor heals himself with the same configurable minimum amount of health to heal (Disabled by default, to encourage teamwork)
- When survivors reach the saferoom
- Not implemented yet: When a survivor rescues another survivor from a closet
- Not implemented yet: Every x minutes, can be configured for Survival gamemode only
All these can be enabled or disabled by configuring the ConVars.

This chalk allows you to get a good enough grip to pull yourself up from a ledge without help, however there's only enough to do it once.

addRandomUpgrade

- Gives specified number of random upgrades to specified user, or to all if "@all" is used.
listAllUpgrades
- Lists all enabled upgrades with Upgrade Numbers on the left, for easier selection of upgrade in above commands
listPlayerUpgrades
- <name|userid|@all> <name|userid>
- Lists all upgrades that the specified user has. Also shows amount of SpecialAmmo left.
Client Commands
Say:/upgrades OR /listupgrades
- Lists upgrades the client has on Chat.
/laser
- Toggles LaserSights on/off if client has the upgrade
/ammotype
- Shows the Ammunition panel which tracks SpecialAmmo and lets the player select which ammotype to use
- Panel can be persistent and track ammo usage by setting Persistent Menu to 1 in the menu itself.

Plugin feature: Preprocessor directives
If you do not use a feature of the plugin, you can save some server load by not loading these features into the server, by instructing the preprocessor to not compile parts of the plugin you do not use.
For example, if you want to use KrX's Survivor Upgrades on all gamemodes, open up the source file using PawnStudio, Notepad or your favourite plain-text editor, and change the value of "1" in
PHP Code:
#define BOOL_SELECTIVE_GAMEMODES 1 // Compile GameMode Checks?
to "0". This will instruct the compiler to not compile all parts pertaining to checking of the current gamemode.
Similarly for the other available preprocessor directives. Read the descriptions at the right of each directive to understand what it affects.
Additionally, the plugin tag (the tag which appears at the start of every chat line) can be changed with directive "PLUGIN_TAG_C". It is colour-coded - seek assistance if you do not know how to change.
*Please only change the values if you know what you are doing. If unsure, seek clarification on this thread or leave the value at "1"
Additional Notes
This plugin will automatically set
motd_enabled to
"1", to fix servers having the issue of the MOTD panels not showing.
Both hollowpoint and incendiary ammo can be given to a person (not a bug)
As this plugin relies on the l4d built-in convar
survivor_upgrades, other plugins which adjust its value will most likely cause undesired effects on this plugin. If so, please remove the conflicting plugins.
Additionally, the plugin [L4D] Glow (with pulse) has been found by some to cause the configs of some or all plugins to not load. As such, if you find that changes in the config file of plugins do not take effect, please try removing that plugin and see how it goes.
