SM 1.2 Version was not working entirely because SM 1.2 can't detect ATTACK2 properly on humans, for some reason (on Bots it works?!?!). I can't use IN_JUMP either because that breaks the even ground check ... so i've gone for the reload button.

New Version of SM 1.2 version is up, works, but instead of ATTACK2 its RELOAD.

I was already working on converting the jetpack mod to L4D for a week or so. Once I saw your plugin I realized how easy it would be to plug the jetpack mechanics into it. Please try this out and see if it is something you might want to incorporate into your plugin. If not, I'll submit it as my own.

Hold down your reload button to start flying.

What does that even mean? I think you're totally missing the point of what this plugin does. Maybe it's the title that's confusing. This is not a normal "pounce". This plugin does not allow you to hurt survivors while in ghost form.

This is more like a leap that allows ghosts to get to places that are tougher to get to. While I'm sure that someone out there will figure out a way to use this for evil that is certainly not the intention and also that has never stopped anything from getting approved.

I can immediately think of 2 cases where this is really handy:

1. BH2, the survivors have not yet opened the alarm door. You want to spawn on the other side of it but ghosts can't pass through. With this you can leap up through the vent and come out on the other side of that door.

2. NM3, survivors are on the scissors lift at the crescendo. You get a boomer and you want to boom from above. Normally you'd have to drop down, run all the way around the building, climb the ladder, run all the way back across the roof, then boom in from above. Now you can just leap up to the roof and be ready to boom.

This is a handy tool that will make the infected much more effective.

Yeah you should change the title. Infected Ghost Leap or something. The "Pounce" is really misleading.

That doesn't mean the plugin shouldn't be approved. Its up to the server operator to choose what he wants in his server and how imbalanced he wants a team to be.

There, it's Ghost Leap now. Edhmelus is right in to some degree, i've done magnificent Boomer Rocket Pounces with this Plugin.

But oh its so much fun xD

Haha you really did it
Just wondering if there will be any significant performance hits with this plugin on SM 1.2? I noticed you're using OnGameFrame.
