This works great for me, but is it possible to make the characters change models instantly, and to also make Bill silent and have his name at least?

Thanks again!

I think in order for the plugin to work properly. It has to be allowed to check models/characters to know what it has and what to change to so instantly changing might be out of the question. I didn't code nor am I coder but I suspect that is the reason.

Unless they decide to further work on it to make the characters solid without any change to the character when the player goes idle/afk that way when players join the server, they ARE the character they play as without change until maybe a map change that makes them another character to keep things fresh.

Regarding Bill.

Masking Bill as Francis is a good, safe alternative but if you want to use Bill himself. I'd suggest using the character select plugin feature and simply change to Mi's Bill and the Francis Bill will change to Nick or whomever isn't being used.

That way you can use all 8 survivors without much error. The only error will be if you use Mi's Bill as a bot as it will crash the server because it doesn't change back to Nick on a map change. If you play AS Bill with Mii's Bill. He will change and change back on a map change so no problems there.

Overall, I think its very well done. The best All 8 survivor since its inception.

!TESTING VERSION ONLY!

TEST this version below. I simply changed this line...
CreateTimer(6.0, delayedCheck, client);

to this...
CreateTimer(1.0, delayedCheck, client);

Now it should be almost instant.


As for making Bill silent and have his name. I have no idea how to do that. Ill ask atomic.

chronic, I belive 0.1 second is the smallest interval possible for sourcemod timers. you should never be using any lower value than 0.1

Atomic told me 0.01 is the smallest possible.

he's wrong. http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Timers_%2...d_Scripting%29

The smallest possible interval is 0.1 seconds.

As I've never seen anyone use 0.01 before, are you sure he's not just confusing 100 milliseconds with 1000 milliseconds?

If 0.01 is the smallest possible, the sourcemod wiki would have told so.

From my testing 0.01 seemed to always fire before 0.1, but only by a tiny bit. 0.01 is more like 0.09. Somewhere on AlliedMods it's stated timers are checked to fire every 100ms. So 0.01 is pretty much pointless you may as well set 0.1.

Same here. I have a plugin that teleports on a 0.01 delay and you can definitely tell 0.01 is faster than 0.1

As for this plugin. 1.0 should be fine. I changed my previous post and the source to a 1 second delay for testing purposes. The original source still has a 6 second delay. I think it needs a slight delay for it to work correctly.
