This is a simple plugin developed to prevent players from gate exploiting - damaging/killing people during round setup through gates, using jarate/madmilk through gates etc. This plugin makes it so damage inflicted from other players is nullified, while allowing players to damage themselves. Valve attempted to fix the exploit but it's still possible to hit people through gates

WARNING: This will break a scout achievement on cp_well. While this plugin is configured to be disabled on that map, there may be others I don't know about that may break. Be sure to edit setupfix.cfg to configure what maps have this enabled.

NOTES/MISC
This plugin is beta, there may be bugs. Report them and I'll try to fix them.

Didn't Valve already fix the issues with gates? Or was that only on their own maps?

Also, cp_well is apparently intended to allow jump classes to get to the other team's side during setup... Scouts even have an achievement for it.

Valve tried to fix some things, however you can still kill people through gates.

This doesn't stop people from getting to the other side, it just prevents people from damaging others during setup. I've not heard of this achievement, so I don't know if it will break or not.

This mod removes any doubt of damage/splash effects misuse. I'm pretty sure all Valve did was fix the well known exploits in the vanilla game maps by hand. For all we know there could still be missed spots. This mod will ensure nothing like that happens.

Since the achievement Quick Hook is "Kill a player in Well before the round starts," yes it will break it.

I see, thanks for providing the name of the achievement this time. If you know of any others please let me know.



I'll work on a blacklist config so users can disable the plugin per map, unless someone has a better idea? Also, is it possible to modify an entities hit box (ie. the gates) to make them thick enough to block shots?

Finally got time to update this.

Added a config file to allow for map specific settings. See setupfix.cfg for details. If a map breaks any achievements or is harmed by this plugin in some other way, edit setupfix.cfg and add the map and settings for it. Also added some new cvars to control default behavior of the plugin. See OP for details.


Tips & suggestions are welcome, I'm still learning about SM plugins when I got the time to.
