This plugin still needs some testing and polishing, but it's stable enough to be released to the public.

This plugin forces the currently running round to end with stalemate if the map is still running past its timelimit. You can set how many minutes after the timelimit stalemate should occur. Because stalemate is forced after the timelimit, server should change the map, as there's no more time for another round. If the server has the Sudden Death mode enabled (mp_stalemate_enable 1), forcing a stalemate will result with the round going into Sudden Death.

Code for forcing the stalemate was taken from the Force End Round plugin by DarthNinja

Before taking any action, plugin informs players about stalemate with notifications showing up every minute and announcer reading "Mission ends in...". When the stalemate is really close to occur, plugin starts the 60 second countdown, after which the round ends. If the players manage to finish the round before plugin will take no action. If the map is extended by changing the mp_timelimit or by restarting the game (even during a countdown) plugin will postpone the stalemate according to the new setting.

CVARs:

sm_mapoverdue_version - plugin version
sm_mapoverdue_enabled - enables the plugin
sm_mapoverdue_warning - how many minutes after the timelimit plugin should start showing the notifications, negative value will trigger the notifications before timelimit hits 0 (e.g. "-2" means that first warning about stalemate will show up when there's 2 minutes left for current map)
sm_mapoverdue_stalemate - how many minutes after the timelimit to force a stalemate/sudden death

Surprised there arent any comments. This is great!

Awesome plugin!
I have a question, not directly related to the plugin, if I have the sudden death mode activated and I use part of this code to force a stalemate in the middle of the round, then would be possible to have multiples sudden deaths?

Few tips:

This isn't necessary but it saves lines and gives you less headaches if you ever have to precache many files at once.

  new String:sPrecache[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH];
  for (new i = 1; i < 10; i++)
  {
    Format(sPrecache, sizeof(sPrecache), "vo/announcer_ends_%isec.wav", i);
    PrecacheSound(sPrecache);
  }

That code will precache the 1st 10 sounds you precache in the plugin less lines. (1-10)

---

You should probably check if the handle for the timer is active at the end of the map.

if (overdueTimer != INVALID_HANDLE)
{
	KillTimer(overdueTimer);
	overdueTimer = INVALID_HANDLE;
}

---

This...

if (GetConVarBool(overdueEnabled) == false)

Can be this...

if (!GetConVarBool(overdueEnabled))

Just a few small things to keep the plugin clean.

Or you could just skip precaching them in the first place and do either:
A manual teamplay_broadcast_audio event. Team 0 = all players (used to be -1, but Valve "fixed" that).
A PlayVO entity input on the tf_gamerules entity. (there are also PlayVORed and PlayVOBlue for team-specific messages)

Oh right, first you need to know that these don't take sample names, but instead game sound names, such as "Announcer.RoundEnds60seconds"
