TF2 Achievement Farming Buddy

twistedeuphoria · **Author**

Have you ever wanted a buddy? Well now you can have one! Using the power of fakeclients you too can have your very own buddy, which you can use to farm achievements or just mess around with! Your buddy isn't really that good at anything like capturing points or taking damage from sources that use TraceLine but he still loves you!

Command: sm_af_menu - Open up the achievement farming buddy menu

Menu Layout:
Spawn Buddy - spawn yourself a buddy (this opens up a class choice menu)
Remove Buddy - remove your buddy from the server
Swap Buddy's Team - move your buddy to the other team
Teleport Buddy Here - teleport your buddy to your current location
Make Buddy Easy To Kill - why do you hate your buddy? use this with "Make Your Buddy Automatically Respawn"
Make Buddy Easy To Heal - makes your buddy always have 1 health, so he's really easy to heal
Make Your Buddy Normal Again - just a normal buddy, removes the other "make" options
Respawn Your Buddy - your buddy is lazy and likes to stay dead so you have to bring him back to life!
Make Your Buddy Automatically Respawn - your buddy will automatically respawn right above you when he dies

Useful client commands: +attack, if you don't know you can use this in console and it fires continuously

Farming Example:
Say you want to farm yourself A Year To Remember, first you'll probably want to set mp_idlemaxtime to 0 on your server. Join your server as a Scout on either team and use the command to open the menu. Make sure your buddy is on the other team, positioned above you and use Make Your Buddy Easy To Kill and Make Your Buddy Automatically Respawn. Then face upwards and type +attack in console. Mmmm delicious kills.

It's my buddy's birthday!

Would be cool if I could spawn a Medic and some other classes and make the Medic heal the other class for some of those other achievements. Right now this can aswell be done by changing the respawn cvars, sv_cheats 1; bot; sv_cheats 0; retry.

Yeah, they can all be done without any cheating or with "bot" - this just makes it faster and easier.

Can this be used on servers with more than just you? What if you have the command "bot" not a cheat?

Can each individual player spawn one of these?

Does is take up slots on the server?

Yes, multiple people on the server can use it, however the buddies do take up a player spot. This plugin doesn't use the bot command so it doesn't really matter what you consider it.

Just what I was looking for - cheers mate.

What modifications would I have to make to the source/script to allow all players to execute the 'sm_af_menu' command (and not just the SM admins)?

Use this.

umm i cannot kill him with shooting weapons only melee... and can you make it so admins can spawn multiple and maybe some things like call for medic and shoot etc

EDIT: can you also make it so it integrates with the sm_admin menu
