General

This plugin requires Sourcemod 1.5 or higher

Description

I'm working on new ideas for my Vicious Infected plugin. Rather than edit the entire plugin I've started to make smaller projects to assess just that particular set of abilities. I figured I'd release the small portions as I come up with them. Maybe even incorporate just the abilities for that particular class to ease the overall plugin.

Hulking Tank is designed to give the most terrifying infected in the game an even more horrific set of abilities. If you thought he was hard to deal with before, you haven't seen anything. With four abilities currently, the Tank can increase speed and damage while on fire, go into hibernation to restore its health, hurl boulders that explode when on fire, send massive shockwaves through the air like a fist, and unleash a titanic bellow to send Survivors flying.
