Thank you. This plugin is basically essential if one likes to play custom maps on l4d2 and doesn't want to play l4d2 with default tank HP.

hola...

The tanks appear together in the wagon ... of the sacrifice?

Gracias

Just a heads up for the incoming update:

1. Fix for tanks being passed in competitive game modes such as Versus. More tanks seem to spawn than the value the cvar is set on once this happens.
2. Fix for 'once human controlled, now an AI' tanks in competitive game modes such as Versus. Their healths were reverted back to being full as if they hadn't taken any damage.

Hello cravenge,

Thank you for releasing this plugin.

One question: Are you considering release a L4D2 version without L4D2 Downtown? I know you check IsFinale, but I don't want to use the extension. I don't mind if it does not check the map, I want all maps double tank. I have a 20VS server.

Thank you in advance.

Some code optimizations that you could implement or add so you don't have to upload different versions for both games:

PHP Code:

public APLRes AskPluginLoad2(Handle myself, bool late, char[] error, int err_max)
{
    EngineVersion evEngine = GetEngineVersion();
    if (evEngine != Engine_Left4Dead && evEngine != Engine_Left4Dead2)
    {
        strcopy(error, err_max, "This plugin only supports Left 4 Dead 1 & 2.");
        return APLRes_SilentFailure;
    }
    return APLRes_Success;
}

stock bool bIsFinaleMap()
{
    return FindEntityByClassname(-1, "trigger_finale") != -1;
}

stock bool bIsL4D2Game()
{
    return GetEngineVersion() == Engine_Left4Dead2;
}

stock bool bIsInfected(int client)
{
    return client > 0 && client <= MaxClients && IsClientInGame(client) && GetClientTeam(client) == 3 && IsPlayerAlive(client) && !IsClientInKickQueue(client);
}

stock bool bIsTank(int client)
{
    if (bIsInfected(client))
    {
        int iClass = GetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_zombieClass");
        if ((bIsL4D2Game() && iClass == 8) || (!bIsL4D2Game() && iClass == 5))
        {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

stock bool bIsPlayerBurning(int client)
{
    if (GetEntPropFloat(client, Prop_Send, "m_burnPercent") > 0)
    {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

stock bool bIsPlayerFired(int client)
{
    if (GetEntProp(client, Prop_Data, "m_fFlags") & FL_ONFIRE)
    {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

I'm still sticking to the L4DT2 method... but I can make another one which reads a config file and under that config file is the list of the finale maps that this plugin shouldn't operate to eliminate the process of hardcoding them into the source file.

I know, that's why I said "optimizations." Currently, the plugins get the game folder name for checking what game it is. It would be better to cover loose ends (such as someone renaming the game folder for whatever reason) by just checking the engine version of the game. And in your IsPlayerBurning check, you're using GetEntDataFloat, but GetEntPropFloat is safer and more robust, which is what I showed above. I also included another way to check for someone that's on fire.

As for the config file idea, perhaps you could use ReadMapList() to help you generate all the map names of all the campaigns you currently have to save some time? And if you want users to decide what maps to disable the plugin in, you could just comment all the lines out when the config is generated, and then players can just uncomment the lines when they want to disable the map, assuming the config file will be a list of disabled maps, not enabled ones. If you need an example, you can look at the code I use in Anti-Speedrunner System and Super Tanks++ to get all installed map names (even the ones in .vpk files).

When I used my local compiler and the online compiler, I got some errors/warnings about undefined/unused symbols in both L4D1 versions and in one of the L4D2 versions. Here are the fixed ones; they compile just fine.

Why the description you said that the version is 2.4 and a huge of cvar but the thing i downloaded from the main post just version 1.4 and only have cvars: "multitanks_health/count_survival/scavenge"? I can't understand @_@
