So you're trying to tell me that because it's different from the base plugins (although it basically does the same thing, just not in an obvious way), this shouldn't be classified as redundant?

Screw that, locking. I don't feel like dealing with everyone's pissing and moaning because I will not reverse my decision about this.

Approved. While it doesn't offer a radical departure from other plugins, it does offer a unique way of providing bomb countdown information that I can imagine many people would like.

You could consider providing a brief message to the clients when the bomb has been planted that will alert them to the location of the countdown, for the less than savvy players out there. I'd make it an optional setting if you add it.

Disagreed. If he adds what you said I'd be willing to support it. For now, I'm overturning your approval.

@ Hawk - I respect your opinion towards this plugin but you need to consider many players including myself and the several players I've spoken to about it would like this. A HUD message is a lot different than an actual display of the timer - although it may be a simple plugin, it provides functionality that is 1) not built-in to the game obviously and 2) other plugins fail to provide. Changing to a hud message is a waste because it is located in a different location thus in your words "causing confusion." As long as I understand correctly, which I really hope I do, this timer is bottom-center where the normal timer would be with the correct time like the normal timer. If so, my opinion above stands, if not, I'll delete my post or someone else can.

EDIT: As per letting the client know, BLINK the timer to show it's counting down the whole time, they will see it and it will be apparent.

instead of get_cvar_num("mp_c4timer"), you can use get_cvar_pointer() to get the pointer so you can use pcvar natives.

Request for CT only, and timer blinking. Reapproved when added.

I'm gonna have to agree with Brad on this, I don't see why this would not be approved. It's not something new, but then again it is. Timer has never been done this way before and many players would see this as an improvement over a hud message.

I'd also agree with slmclarengt and emp, blinking timer would be cool (match the beeping sound?). Maybe just the clock or maybe just the bomb icon or both? would be nice though.

I would only say if you plan on adding things they want you to make them optional, sounds or whatnot, since default this is fine as is. Good job on the idea as always cheap_suit...

If you mean the timer sprite then I can do that.


@Everyone else. Thank you for you positive inputs.
