Description:

Hooks infected abilities and allows plugin developers to do whatever they want such as preventing other SIs interrupt Chargers carrying their victims, stopping Hunters from stealing another SI's victim when vomited, etc. However, said developers are still tasked to validate the ability's owner and the entity that it touches.

ConVars:

• infected_ability_touch_hook_version
  → Version of the plugin

Forwards:

PHP Code:

forward Action OnAbilityTouch(const char[] ability, int abilityOwner, int &entity); 


Installation:

💡 *.smx goes into the plugins folder
💡 *.sp goes into the scripting folder (only if you want to make changes to your liking)
💡 *.inc goes into the include folder (inside scripting)
💡 *.txt goes into the gamedata folder (optional since the plugin automatically makes one if missing)

Requirements:

◉ SourceMod >= 1.10
◉ DHooks (Experimental Dynamic Detour support)

I'm pretty sure "ability_selfdestruct" is for the Leaker, when playing as him you can explode yourself with the primary attack. Anyways, great work!

If you ever need help with L4D1 gamedata info, just let me know.

PHP Code:

"Games"
{
    "#default"
    {
        "Functions"
        {
            "OnTouch"
            {
                "offset"        "OnTouch"
                "hooktype"        "entity"
                "return"        "void"
                "this"            "entity"
                "arguments"
                {
                    "a1"
                    {
                        "type"    "cbaseentity"
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
    "left4dead"
    {
        "Offsets"
        {
            /* CBaseAbility::OnTouch(CBaseEntity*) */
            "OnTouch"
            {
                "windows"    "200"
                "linux"        "201"
            }
        }

Alright.

[Lux]

This is great nice work.

Also need to add it requires dhooks in op.

Updated!

- Rewritten forward description to be clearer.
- Made it so developers can change the entity being touched by an infected ability. Only tested with other entities that are in very close proximity to the original one.

Updated!

- Limited the ability hooking to the tongue and the leap from now on.
- Rewritten the include file to reflect the changes.
- Other SIs require different hooks than the current one in order to achieve full control of their abilities. Please request if you want them to be added.
