How can I set the Survivor´s HP when starting maps (safe room) and when they are spawning in a COOP server?

It´s pretty easy do that with respawn (after death), climbed and revived:
sm_cvar z_survivor_respawn_health
sm_cvar survivor_ledge_grab_health
sm_cvar survivor_revive_health

but I don´t know how to do this with starting health in the spawn (reconnect), and/or in the safe.

Can anybody help?
Thanks!

This suppose to work when player spawn at start of map or safe room.
cvar: survivor_start_health
- 150 is default value, edit code or add cvar in config file.

PHP Code:

bool IsInCheckpoint[10];

ConVar survivor_start_health;

public void OnPluginStart()
{
    HookEvent("player_spawn", spawn);
    //HookEvent("player_entered_start_area", area);
    HookEvent("player_entered_checkpoint", checkpoint);
    HookEvent("player_left_checkpoint", checkpoint);
    
    survivor_start_health = CreateConVar("survivor_start_health", "150", " - health amount when map start", _, true, 1.0, true, 9999.0);
}

public void spawn(Event event, const char[] name, bool dontBroadcast)
{
    int client = GetClientOfUserId(event.GetInt("userid"));
    
    if(GetClientTeam(client) != 2) return;
    
    if(GetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_isInMissionStartArea") || IsInCheckpoint[client])
    {
        //SetEntityHealth(client, 999);

        CreateTimer(1.0, delay, event.GetInt("userid"), TIMER_FLAG_NO_MAPCHANGE);
    }
}

public Action delay(Handle timer, any data)
{
    int client = GetClientOfUserId(data);
    
    if(!client || !IsClientInGame(client)) return;

    SetEntityHealth(client, survivor_start_health.IntValue);
}

public void area(Event event, const char[] name, bool dontBroadcast)
{
}

public void checkpoint(Event event, const char[] name, bool dontBroadcast)
{
    int client = GetClientOfUserId(event.GetInt("userid"));
    
    if(!client) return;

    if(StrEqual(name, "player_entered_checkpoint"))
    {
        IsInCheckpoint[client] = true;
    }
    else
    {
        IsInCheckpoint[client] = false;
    }
    
}

This plugin will do what you are looking for.
It sets the health of every survivor when the map starts and when they spawn in the safe room.

You can boost the health or reduce the health by setting the one cvar.
Just make sure you use only integer values like:

abs_l4d2_StartingHealth 150
abs_l4d2_StartingHealth 65

This is a modification of a plugin I wrote that when a player spawns in the safe room,
if their health is less then 50% boost them to 50%.
So you will notice when the health is set I also

Reset the incap count
Turn off the is going to die
Turn off the third strike
Reset their temp health
Turn off the heartbeat sound if they were B+W

The only strange thing about this plugin is the health is also set when you take over a bot.
I guess the engine is “spawning” you as the bot and thus player_spawn is called for that too.

Anyone know how I can tell if player_spawn is being called for a bot take over instead of a map start or safe room spawn?

Ye thats the issue, i dont want survivors to re-fill their HP everytime someone ragequits / joins and takes over a survivor bot.

I need to set it at the start for all survivors and thats it.
Similar to RayMans Admin System chat command: !max_health all 200

Here is a version that doesn't set health on bot takeover.
It only sets health at the start of a campagin and when you spawn in the safe rooms.

Try it out and let me know how it works for you.
I tested it on my server and it seems to work as expected.

It is a hack since I am only allowing the health set when the spawn is less than 40 seconds into the round.

It is taking about 17 seconds for my server to spawn the players after the round starts.
40 seconds should be good for even slow servers?

Doesnt work. HP is still being set to 120 when someone takes over a bot by joining the game or changing teams and back to survivors team.

Are you sure you deleted from your server the original one I posted?
Are you using the new one, this link?
https://www.sourcemod.net/vbcompiler.php?file_id=191992

It is working on my server as described.

[Hawkins]

Yes i am sure. Tested it again the one you posted. Ive edited the sp to activate if lower than 101 and set it to 130. Still sets HP back when changing to spectator and back to survivor team.
I walked around out of safe room for the round to "start" then spawned spitter to damage my team and changed team and then back to survivor.

Post your source code and I will take a look at it.
