Server Hibernate Fix
A Plugin to work-around the workshop map server hibernate problem

Description
This Plugin works around the [MM] Sending reservation request to... problem which appears if you have a workshop map loaded, all clients disconnected and the server goes into hibernation, stopping to tick and blocking new clients to join.
It achieves that by automatically changing to a "stock map" like de_dust just after all clients disconnected and before hibernation.

Personal note
I'm aware that there are plugins out there with similar functionality but I decided to write one for this specific problem with CS:GO as of a friends request. It targets admins who wanna utilize the hibernation feature without breaking connectivity.

Cvars
This plugin generates it's config file in csgo/cfg/sourcemod/shf.cfg after first load.

• sm_shf_version returns current plugin version
• sm_shf_enabled allows the admin to enable or disable the plugin on the fly <1 = Enabled/Default, 0 = Disabled>
• sm_shf_default_map defines the default map to fall back to before server hibernates <de_dust = Default>
• sm_shf_ingame_clients_only defines when to trigger the map fallback action <1 = Ingame, 0 = Connected/Default>

Alternate location for binaries, sources and changelogs
Head over to Github.

Installation
Getting it to run is pretty straight forward:

1. You should have at least SourceMod v1.5.3
2. Just put shf.smx in your sourcemod/plugins directory and load it.
3. Adjust cfg/sourcemod/shf.cfg to your needs.

Why not use sv_hibernate_when_empty 0

or sm_cvar sv_hibernate_when_empty 0 ?

What does this do that the stock commands don't?

[Nefarius]

You got your answer right there; sv_hibernate_when_empty 0 disables hibernation where the plugin allows switching to hibernation after changing to a "safe" map, allowing the CPU to idle

Thanks for this... although I don't think I've run into that error in a while, but a good plugin nonetheless.

Updated to version 0.0.3

Thanks to some test-feedback on Steam I managed to fix:

• Fallback action doesn't occur on special conditions (like users being dropped 'cause of map version mismatch)
• Possible recursion bug inflicting performance

It should now perform as expected

Updated to version 0.0.4

This is the (hopefully) last modification I had to make. Due to some test-feedback on Steam I changed the following:

• Processing client disconnect events is now randomized. This avoids multiple parallel map change requests if all clients get dropped at the same time (like changing to a faulty map or a mass-kick) and thus clears some odd entries in the logs
• Bot disconnects (kicks) will now be completely ignored, improving performance a tiny bit

Good to go and ready-for-review

Small Update:

Refactor code with SM 1.7 syntax

Add convar sm_shf_execute_config to execute a config before map change.
