    Hi, i'm Luc.
    Sorry for my English. I'm French.
    And it's my FIRST plugin (really !).

    Good games, and Have fun.
    HUMAN DIRECTOR
    (Oh My Director !)



    DESCRIPTION :

    You think the "AI Director" is sadistic? Evil? You think he has bigger balls than you?
    So I have good news for you: HE RESIGNS HIS JOB !
    So, we need a new ones...
    AND YOU ARE THE CHOSEN ONE !
    (Awesome !)

    The plugin allows a PLAYER to take control of the Director. He is really THE Director !
    It's a new way to play.



    INSTALLATION :

    - You need Metamod and Sourcemod (server side) to use this plugin.
    - Copy / paste the file into the plugins directory.



    COMMANDS :

    All commands can be write on console (sm_hd***) and on chat (!hd**)
    • !hddirector : To become the Director
    • !hddemission : Resign his job (Director command)
    • !hdmenu : Open the Director menu
    • !hdspawn : Spawn as a special, when the Director give us the order to
    • !hdhelp : To get more informations about commands.
    • !hdkill : Suicide (infected players command)
    • !hdquickspawn <id> : Spawn an infected without use the menu (binds).
    • !hdstats : Stats !
    • !hdwhodirector : Who is the director ?
    Admin Commands :
    • !hdon : Activate de plugin.
    • !hdoff : Disable the plugin.
    • !hdbot : Enable / Disable survivors bots.
    ConVars :
    • sm_humandirector_debug 0: Debug messages.
    • sm_humandirector_forcespawn 1 : Forcing spawns
    HOW TO PLAY :

    The goal is the same: the survivors must survive, infected must kill them.
    At the beginning of the game, survivors are freeze, and infected players can not spawn. This is normal.
    At first, we need a Director. This means that an infected players must enter this command on chat : !hddirector.

    Once the Director is chosen, he has 1 minuts to prepare the place. During this time, it can only invoke normal infected.
    He can invokes his slaves with the menu (!hdmenu) or binds (!hdquickspawn).

    At the end of the minut, the game begins !
    Survivors are free of their movements, the Director can invokes a lot of things ... bwuhahahaha!


    The Director can invokes NPC and players :
    - About NPC, there is the normal infected, the witch, and the call of the horde.
    It should simply aim at a distant place of survivors, and press the menu button to invoke.

    - About players, there is the Hunter, the Smoker, the Boomer, the Tank, and the ability to invoke the special group of 3.
    This kind of invocation is different. In fact, the Director gives the opportunity to one of his elite (the other 3 players infected) to spawn as a Special Infected.
    The elite will be chosen randomly and will be warned.
    To spawn, it must be placed where he wants (in free camera), and write in the chat : !hdspawn.
    So, he will spawn where he is located, in the role he was given.
    The Director can invoke the special group, cheaper and faster, with an unique condition : all his guys must be dead and without "orders".


    The invocation has its limits :
    - Any invocation has a price ...
    - The number of resources are limited to 1500 (a normal infected costs 20, a special costs 100, a tank costs 1000)
    - The Director can invoke only if he is distant of survivors, without aiming them.
    - Normal infected is limited to 60, the Witch to 1 and the Tank 1.
    - You must wait 4 minutes to call a new horde.
    - You must wait 3 seconds to invoke a new special, and 20 seconds to invoke a new special OF THE SAME CLASS !
    - The Director can not invokes himself!


    You are now ready to reign on L4D !



    CHANGELOG :

    Code:
    V1.031
    - The "test distance" don't test special/horde spawns.
    - A special aims a place, to spawn.
    - You can spawn anything more easely from survivor positions.
    - You can spawn a special group more easely (less contraints).
    - New prices.
    - Resource limits : 1500 -> 1200
    - New french messages.
    - More informations about player spawns.
    - More informations about how to get the "free cam".
    - All commands can be use on console (sm_hd***) and on chat (!hd***). Except admin commands.
    - Plugin is already active (don't need to activate this one)
    - You can hear a sound when you commit an "error".
    - Forced spawns : A special received a spawn order automatically, when the Director is slow (can be disabled by the convar "sm_humandirector_forcespawn").
    - Less times needed to spawn a new special.
    - No more "Tank Bot"
    - Stats !
    
    V1.00
    - "Let's do this !"

    You don't have to put command as !hdon (for example) you could use sm_hdon and still if peoples say !hdon on chat it'd work still. It would also guarantee your not replacing any other commands.

    You should leave an observation after "- Install Metamod and Sourcemod on the server (easy)." saying "only if you haven't" because some peoples doesn't understand it and may think they have to reinstall.

    You should also use infected_limit convar to limit common infected so server owners have more control about the limit.

    We tired to get this to work last night, but we couldn't get it to work!

    Special Infected when ordered couldn't spawn, but I could when asked (im the only admin)

    the director seemed to be going on anyway, infected and witches were auto spawned.

    Hi

    It's a bug and i dont know how to fix it. It comes from L4D. I think i must "kick" the entity (witch ant tank by AI).
    Abouts infected, this is OK. They are spawn to prevent rushs from Survivors. I can stop this "automatic" spawn, of course.
    Note.

    Really ? We test the plugin yesterday and it works. However, i'm going to look at this later.
    Are you sure that your friends type on chat "!hdspawn" ?
    1) The director gives the order to spawn to a player
    2) he is warned
    3) he must choose a place, far away from survivors, to spawn
    4) He must types "!hdspawn" on chat to spawn.

    EDIT : work...

    Le plugin consiste à un joueur infecté de prendre controle des commandes du Director, a la place de l'ordinateur.
    Seul le serveur doit installer le plugin chez lui. Les joueurs ont rien à faire.
    Va sur ce forum francais pour plus d'infos :

    Great idea, but I got about 9 warnings compiling it, but it compiled.

    No problem, nobody is perfect, but when I tried to play, i couldn't use any commands, they don't look to work.

    You should try to use the sm_ command names.

    (oh, I have latest version of SM, working, with admin rights and I tried both versions: the post version and my compiled one)
