Thank Silvers for supporting.
It seems to be worked. But i need to test more. Maybe my plugin cant work or maybe native L4D_OnGetScriptValueInt with sm 1.10
Can you share left4dhooks 1.9 ?. I cant compile with sm 1.9. I need this to test.

No.

Nevermind, after few test ...
"MaxSpecials" always become "n" when i change value

PHP Code:

public Action L4D_OnGetScriptValueInt(const char[] key, int &retVal)
{
    if (StrEqual(key, "MaxSpecials") )
    {
        PrintToServer("TEST_FWD ############## %s %d", key, retVal);
        retVal = -1; // No specials can spawn.
        retVal = 0; // 1 special can spawn.
        retVal = 1; // 2 specials can spawn.  -------n is here
        return Plugin_Handled;
    }
    return Plugin_Continue;
} 


It seems impossible to change "MaxSpecials" based on Survivors like l4d_superversus. ( but can work with l4dt - code line 1330 )
l4d_superversus.sp
sorry for my bad english.

[Silvers]

This was just an example... Use the original plugin you were using to modify the value. Or use the above and change N to the value you want, I mean seriously c'mon what do you expect.

[hoanganh81097]

Sorry about that. I have to reconfig my plugin and now "MaxSpecials" worked with l4dhooks
But i have an another problem.
When "MaxSpecials" change, "BoomerLimit", "SmokerLimit" , ... changed = "MaxSpecials" value
I tried change cvar z_boomer_limit = 1, ... but not work.
Example :
"MaxSpecials" become 10. So "BoomerLimit" become 10 too. But z_boomer_limit still 1

Beside, can you add special targets just use them in a command. e.g. sm_kick @infected or !slay @survivors like L4dt ?
Thank you !

I didn't notice the extension provided this. I'll also add next update, thanks.

This is what I was wondering. In the source these lines commented out, you can uncomment the lines and recompile. I'll do this in the next update for all "Limit" vars, to force them to trigger the forward like "MaxSpecials" does.


Edit: I've tried setting "BoomerLimit" and "TotalHunters" using various methods but they don't seem to have any affect. Are you sure these actually used to work? Edit: Thanks to "hoanganh81097" for helping test, the games *Limit director variables don't seem to work just like the cvars are broken... see Edit3.

Edit2: I've written a plugin to use the "z_*_limit" cvars and prevent spawning specific zombie classes when their limit has reached, will release soon.

Edit3: the *Limit director variables for special infected works in Finale but not the "MaxSpecials" lol, for bots anyway. This game is crazy.

It will be great see this project on github. This allow track all changes and they history
May be someone create issues or make own PR

Maybe one day, I find github confusing and dunno how to use it (haven't tried in years).


Update:

1.5 (29-Feb-2020)
    - Added Director Variables to be rechecked:
    - Some of these only work in the Finale, some may only work outside of the Finale. L4D2 is weird.
        "SmokerLimit", "BoomerLimit", "HunterLimit", "SpitterLimit", "JockeyLimit", "ChargerLimit", "TankLimit",
        "DominatorLimit", "WitchLimit" and "CommonLimit".

        Challenge Mode variables, if required:
        "cm_MaxSpecials", "cm_BaseSpecialLimit", "cm_SmokerLimit", "cm_BoomerLimit", "cm_HunterLimit", "cm_SpitterLimit",
        "cm_JockeyLimit", "cm_ChargerLimit", "cm_TankLimit", "cm_DominatorLimit", "cm_WitchLimit" and "cm_CommonLimit".

    - Added Target Filters (thanks to "hoanganh810972" for reporting as missing):
        Survivors: "@s", "@surv", "@survivors"
        Specials:  "@i", "@infe", "@infected"
        Tanks:     "@t", "@tank", "@tanks"

    - Fixed "L4D_CreateRescuableSurvivors" native from not working. Now spawns all dead survivors into rescuable rooms.
    - Removed "L4D_OnGetRandomPZSpawnPosition" forward due to spawning specials at 0,0,0 when modifying any value.

    - Updated: Test plugin to reflect above changes.
    - Updated: Plugin, Include and GameData files.

Plugin, gamedata and include files should be updated.

1.6 (02-Mar-2020)
    - Fixed the animation hook throwing an "Exception reported: Client is not connected" error.

    Thanks to "Accelerator74" for reporting:
    - Fixed Addons Disabler "l4d2_addons_eclipse" not working without any plugins using the forward to detour.
    - Fixed "L4D2Direct_GetVSWitchFlowPercent" and "L4D2Direct_SetVSWitchFlowPercent" natives.
