That is true, Marttt, the initial question is solved with the script I attached.

The incap thing is not connected to it, it is a standalone bug.

So we can stop the discussion here at that point.

Maybe if it's possible to fix it, we can make a fix plugin later, if possible in a different thread or so.

When player spawn as infected, then switch team, bot will be leave behind as infected.

So, block jointeam when player is alive in infected team.

PHP Code:

enum
{
    unknown = 0,
    Spectator,
    Survivor,
    Infected
}

char teamname[][] =
{
    "unknown",
    "Spectator",
    "Survivor",
    "Infected"
}

public void OnPluginStart()
{
    AddCommandListener(listen, "jointeam");
}

public Action listen(int client, const char[] command, int args)
{
    if(client < 1 || !IsClientInGame(client) || IsFakeClient(client)  || GetClientTeam(client) != Infected)
        return Plugin_Continue;

    if(GetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_iPlayerState") == 0)
    {
        return Plugin_Handled;
    }

    return Plugin_Continue;
}

Ah, very good, Bacardi.

That solves both problems at the same time.

I combined both into one script, so when tank becomes bot, it removes the left behind infected plus blocking the switch while alive.

Second will block the incap or instant kill bug.

Thank you all. That's cool.

[Bacardi]

You're welcome.

ps
Where god dam Google translate today ?? It have been gone from quick choose.

Oh, I was celebrating too early.

The incap bug even works unspawned.

So all you need is to actually switch teams to incap or kill the bot, no need to spawn.

Now that is worse.

Maybe it can be blocked if the damage itself is blocked for a milisecond after switch for the client that is switching?

During the switch, I can see the one time damage:

On Dead Air
OnTakeDamage victim: 2,attacker: 667, damage is 100.000000 (only incap)

On Blood harvest
OnTakeDamage victim: 2,attacker: 297, damage is 500.000000 (instant death)

I think I fixed it with attached version, it should block the damage for 0.1 sec.

In my tests it seems to be enough.

I attached both variants, the one where you can switch teams always and the one bacardi suggested.

Maybe someone can move this thread to scripting forums.

Interesting, I test myself and can trigger this bug 100% in l4d1. Nice observation,
it explains why sometimes survivor get killed/incapped for no reason in versus mode..

Your code is good, but it would affect all survivors and block every damage within 0.1 second since you are using global variable.

Here I come to share how I fix.
Both of them only apply to l4d1
l4d_nosecondchances.sp: When a spawned Infected Player disconnects or becomes Tank the AI SI will instantly get killed unless it has someone capped.
- Using "player_bot_replace" event is better than "player_team", game triggers this event when bot replaces player

l4d_switch_team_survivor_dead_fix: Fixed a bug sometimes infected player switchs team to survivor, the survivor gets incapped/killed instantly
- Using variables to record each player and save GetEngineTime(), block damage only if damage type is DMG_FALL

Thanks harry that does seem to work also!

So they somehow take the fall dmg with them by switching, interesting

[plug344]

Sorry, do L4D2 have these errors and need to be fixed?

[finishlast]

Unsure about the bot cloning part, but for the instant death part, yes.

Thank you very much for your reply.
