[Insurgency] Spectator Move

C.Falcon · **Author**

Hi guys,

This is my first plugin. Looking for some feedback, as i am noob to scirpting

It is a simple command sm_move <target> to move players in insurgency to spectator if they are AFK / need to be moved.

I originally wanted this to be a teamswitch for insurgency but it seems ChangeClientTeam() is acting very odd in Insurgency. I have to execute a kill on the client for the move to work. If i try to move to any other team than spectator i get some very strange behaviour.

Any help, suggestions, tips, what i did good, what i did bad etc... would be greatly appreciated!

I apologize if something similar already exists, i am not trying to copy you. I am just trying to start small so i can learn.

P.S. Thanks @ Rotghar & Sammy-Rock! They were very helpful in teaching me the basics and providing code examples.

Yes i did, locally and on a test server with a friend... is there a problem?

ClientCommand(target, "kill");
this is working ?

Yeah on my local server...

i think i read some where you need a cvar activated to allow this... is this bad?

EDIT: I did not like using it but .... i did not know any other way to make it work with insurgency. I am looking for suggestions though... remember i am pretty new to this.

Just use ChangeClientTeam( )

ChangeClientTeam actually doesn't kil lthe player in insurgency, it causes the team change to occur though. So you have to force the kill for it to work properly (I've tested and seen this myself)

ClientCommand(client, "kill");

Works fine in insurgency. I used to use it in my STK plugin.... actually I think I still do.

That would be nice! Falcon, you cant' come outta your room and no santa for you till you finish!
I was experiancing what he's talking about, testing with rothgar on the afk plugin. If you are moved to spec in ins, you stay on the team you were on before, and alive, but you are moved on the scoreboard. Then when you die, you enter spec. Weird behaviour for sure, but what in ins mod isn't weird?
