New version 1.5 released, see original post for download.

- Now reverses friendly-fire for mounted machine guns too.


I originally missed reversing friendly-fire from mounted machine guns (mini-guns), but it is fixed now.

Very nice release.

I would like to suggest to find a way to disable friendly fire reverse for people that are incapacitated, because there's a lot of accidental damage that is really hard to avoid, such as survivors bouncing up when revival is interrupted.

That is a good suggestion, thank you. When I have time, I'll work on adding that option with a ConVar.

As requested, in version 1.6 added option to reverse friendly-fire when victim is incapacitated. [reverseff_incapped (default: false)]. Refer to the original post for download.

Is there a reason that the plugin doesn't support L4D1? The only part of the code that is exclusive to L4D2 are the grenade launcher and special ammo checks, which should both automatically return false in L4D1 anyway. The code is simple enough to work in both games, so you just need to add support for Engine_Left4Dead inside AskPluginLoad2.

I don't have an L4D1 server to do testing, but if someone can confirm it works properly, I'm certainly fine with adding it to the engine checks. Here is a draft version for someone to test and provide feedback.

Hello, this is a really great plugin but is it possible to have an option to minimise the normal FF damage and not only the special ammo one?

I have modded the weapons in a .vpk file and each hit causes the player to get incapped instantly even with melee weapons.

So I was hoping if it was possible to add a smaller value of FF damage? Like for example, 1 would be normal damage and 0.1 would be 10% of the normal damage?

There are already standard cvars for this. For example, if you are playing a campaign on expert...


survivor_friendly_fire_factor_expert


I believe the default value above is 0.5, so you could adjust it up to cause more damage or adjust it down to cause less damage. Have you tried this already?

I'll try it out, thanks!
Some of the Cvars doesn't have a description of what they are so I didn't notice that would have anything to do with damage.


Edit: The Cvar worked. I thought that the "survivor_friendly_fire_factor_expert" is friendly fire enabler instead of damage.
