About:

• Valve had originally released or were planning on implementing the ability for Survivors to lock doors.
• This plugin brings that to life with additional features.
• Doors can be randomly opened or closed on round start with the cvar l4d_lock_doors_random - respects Versus competitive balance.
• Customise the health of doors when they spawn, are opened, closed or locked.
• This will not affect saferoom doors or existing locked doors to avoid breaking certain maps.
• Keybind: Shift + E or Ctrl + E set by l4d_lock_doors_keys cvar.
• Don't change the health cvars during gameplay as the plugin relies on the original values to restore health!

Thanks:

• Cuba - For the request.
• Lux - As standard.
• gongo - Lots of help testing.
• Toranks - Lots of help testing.

Pretty interesting feature )

I'm curious where database of all valve removed features is exist ? =)

[SkiPlix]

Seems this makes the server crash when you're stuck between the door, and you lock/unlock it.

Might be a random crash though.

It's not possible to lock/unlock the door while it's in transition. The door must be fully closed. I also just tried and the door opens again after getting stuck on the player. Unless you have an accelerator crash log I'm ignoring this report. Thanks.

how to lock doors?

This is an interesting plug-in. I've just started using it on my server. It's good! And even though this plug-in only allows players to manually lock/unlock closet doors, I was wondering would be possible to add to your config file an option to have an extra Cvar to have every rescue closet door locked at the start of each round in every map, mainly so that only my member-players only unlock these closet doors when they get to each one.

I really do find it annoying sometimes, when some noob player unwarily opens an empty rescue closet without realizing that the door they just opened now stops a player from re-spawning after that door's been opened. I only let members use this lock/unlock activation key on my server, as I wont allow unwary or noob public players to use this unlock feature at all.

After further tests, I see that this lock feature applies to all doors and not just rescue closets. So my above suggestion (post 8 ) would be impractical anyway. So instead of the above suggestion, would it be possible to add a timer to the locked door instead - as optional.

My reason for this is that sometimes it would be nice to lock a nearby rescue closet, to stop some unwitting player/s from releasing a player that is re-spawning in the nearby closet, so that I could perform CPR on that dead player/bot instead, but after they were resuscitated, the timer would unlock the rescue closet door. Timer settings could be set anywhere from 0 to 60 seconds using a CVAR within the config file.

Could this possibly be added to this plugin?

Oh yeah Saferoom Door Spam Protection only prevents saferoom doors. This plugin allows locking/opening any standard door iirc. I guess adapting this to allow opening specific doors wouldn't be much of a problem, the only issue is determining which doors are actually rescue rooms and if they have been opened or not. It's not something I have any interest or time to figure out and do. Sorry.

[Sunyata]

Hi Silvers, thanks for replying so quickly. If this is something you're not interested in doing, that's fine.

However, I think adding a timer option to any door when locked would be quite simple to implement methinks. And a good trade off after what I wrote in post 8. Perhaps some other kind coder here, may think my suggestion to have a timer-lock is worthy enough to implement into your code, if some other coder thinks it's easy enough to do of course

Again, thanks for your quick response.
