The Hidden Mod Redux

Originally created by Matheus28 - link
Then modified and improved by atomic-penguin(Eric G. Wolfe) and Daniel Murray - link

Now redux by me, luki1412. I didn't want the mod to die, but the last version had a lot of problems. The main one being - crash when giving player a knife. EquipPlayerWeapon is the cause. I didn't want to use TF2Items just so I can replace 1 weapon for 1 person. I couldnt find a way to fix this but I did at last. TF2 Items is not required. I used to love this mod so Im bringing it back.

Description:
Never heard of this mod before? Its based on The Hidden:Source mod - https://www.hidden-source.com/. Basically a variant of One person vs Everyone else(like vs saxton hale). On the red team you have players(called team IRIS) with no special abilities but you have the quantity. On the blue team you have The Hidden. Its a permanently cloaked spy, only revealed when attacking or using his abilities. The objective is pretty simple - kill the hidden before he kills you.

What's different from the version by atomic-penguin and Daniel Murray?

Cvars:
This plugin autocreates a config file, you can use to change cvars(in cfg/sourcemod). If I add new cvars, you have to remove this file so it gets recreated with the new cvars, or add them in yourself.

PHP Code:


			
//version cvar - do not edit

// Forces bots to be snipers

sm_thehidden_forcebotsclass "1"

Some of the cvars(mainly cooldown cvars) above wont take effect until the next round starts, because it would break the functionality of the mod. If it is a time period cvar, its not in seconds but in server ticks (0.01 is one tick). Default values should be fine for most servers.

Commands:

PHP Code:


			
sm_nexthidden <player> //console command that forces the player specified to be the next hidden, regardless of who wins the round. Cant select a player that isnt on RED/BLU

sm_hiddennext <player> //same as sm_nexthidden

sm_hiddenhelp //console command, the help menu

sm_hiddenpref //console command, the pref menu

sm_hiddenpreference //same as sm_hiddenpref



//each command above can be triggered from chat by replacing sm_ with / for silent execution or ! for public execution

Installation:
It was tested and made for sourcemod 1.11 so I recommend to compile it yourself or use the attached compiled version.
This mod only works on arena maps, so you might want to set your server's starting map to an arena map.
SteamWorks is needed only for changing the game in server browser. This plugin autogenerates a config file on load, in tf/cfg/sourcemod.

Installing the plugin without SteamWorks:
