i've updated to the latest dhooks and plugin, and I'm always getting the error that the plugin doesn't start, something about missing carprops variable.

It seems to me that CosmicD had this error

Thanks fixed.

This is why it's useful to provide error logs or details on what happens.

Server crashes without errors when bots standing on the car.
When they shoot, works fine.
I uploaded new plugin ver and signature.

Nothing I tried has been able to fix this detour on L4D1 Linux server. If anyone knows how or solves please tell me.
