Today, Valve added a Soldier statue as a tribute to the voice actor Rick May who passed away earlier in April. The statues are present on every official TF2 map for the duration of May, but not on community maps unless someone manually puts them there. So I figured I'd quickly make a plugin to make that happen.

To install, simply put rick_statue.smx in your plugins folder, and create a file called rick_statue.txt in your configs folder, with the following format:

"RickStatue"
{
        "trade_map1"
        {
                "x_origin" "-795.0"
                "y_origin" "-1200.0"
                "z_origin" "-11135"
                "x_angle" "0.0"
                "y_angle" "90.0"
                "z_angle" "0.0"
        }
        "trade_map2"
        {
                "x_origin" "-326.0"
                "y_origin" "502.0"
                "z_origin" "-351"
                "x_angle" "0.0"
                "y_angle" "-180.0"
                "z_angle" "0.0"
        }
}

The coordinates and viewing angles can easily be retrieved using this plugin, or simply using getpos in console. If you do the latter, you will need to resize yourself to a size close to 0, or the z coordinate will be wrong (it'll be on eye-level height instead of on the ground).
