Thanks once again for updating the plugin and adding the pre compiled version, giving it a try later today and will let you know how it goes.

On a side note i was going to ask if there can be an option / feature that will allow when 2 human survivors or less that the human survivor who is selected as VIP to be able to pick up gas cans on maps which need it like on dead centre finale and others?

Main reason being is sometimes when the game goes bad for the other team as we all know alot of ppl leave and it ends up being 4 vs 2 or 4 vs 1 (even when others switch voer to balance it there may only be 4 ppl in total left in the game from the 8 who started) such because 2 or 3 ppl decide to leave as they figure they cannot win and don't show good sportsmanship.

Thanks,

irogue

I really see no reason to not allow the Prez to pick up gas cans. I will check that out.

Well done Ice.
All requests are working 100%.

But...

If the prez is dead and the players are next to the saferoom they can get in and close the door before the defib counter is finished.

Another situation is:
If all players get into the safe and prez is alone in the outer side and die, the round is finished normally.

Well... there is a plugin called Anti-Runner (remake) and I use it too.
Will be great if only the prez could open the safe.
I mean, mix your code with that?

Again, very good job and as we know the develpoment never stops .

Thanks man!

PS: Oh... the prez canīt pickup gas cans, propanes and oxygen as said Irogue.

I added the ability for the Prez to carry the tanks, gas cans, and fireworks crates.

As far as the saferoom stuff, I will have to think about that. I do not know what changes, if any, I will end up making regarding those.

Thanks Seattle.

Just noticed another small thing, the VIP player cannot pick up Explosive or Incendiary ammunition packs would it be possible to flag these items as ok for picking up please?

Also i run a plugin called afkmanager (found here: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=708265) it seems when the VIP player is moved to spectate mode after being idle and the afk manager moves that player to spectator that a new VIP selection doesn't occur unless i bring up the admin menu to manually do so.

I am currently about to run the game in versus and double check as this happened on Co Op mode and it may just be Co Op mode it happens in, will report back ASAP.

It seems as if only admins start with a pistol when they are selected to be president. I'm not sure if you're supposed to start with a pistol or if you are supposed to find one in the level, but only admins getting pistols seems to be the case for my server.

also: Thanks for the plugin, it rocks!

When a player is selected as Prez, I give him a pistol or magnum, no exceptions. I have no idea why only admins would get it on your server. Hmmmm.

I'm not sure either, I have a whole bunch of plugins though, some are probably interacting with it if no one else has this problem...

One other thing on the lvl in dead centre where u need to give the cola to the guy in his bunker, the VIP cannot pick up the cola not sure if this is intentional or not though.

I will add the ammo packs and cola to the list of acceptable Presidential items.
