This is not a plugin for conventional server usage.



This plugin allows admins to set the number of times to have players use a server-sided ragdoll in place of the conventional client-side one.
Beware, this is an unfinished plugin; there WILL be a few bugs and glitches.
Plus, server-side ragdolls can eat into bandwidth, so it's not recommended to use this outside of local or less-intensive games/servers.

Cosmetics are recreated on server ragdolls as fake prop_dynamic_override entities bonemerged to the model. (They don't have any custom colors or effects yet.)
Fire is half-recreated as well.
By default, gibs won't spawn and are replaced with the server-side ragdoll. Server-side gibs have not been created as an option yet.

-= ConVars/Commands =-
tf_server_ragdoll_collision 1 - min:0/max:2
^ Which collision to use for server ragdolls.
0 = None. (Collide with everything)
1 = Debris. (Don't collide with players or everything else, like projectiles)
2 = Pushaway. (collide with everything except players)

tf_server_ragdoll_force 0 - min:0/max:3
^ Force ragdolls to automatically be server sided on the specified teams. (THESE ARE BITFLAGS, COMBINE THEM)
1 = RED
2 = BLU

sm_svrag <client> <num> = Manually force server ragdoll on a specified player.
Special parameters for <num>: inf (toggle infinite server ragdolls)

-= Further Info =-

- The plugin automatically adds a function to the admin menu called 'Force server rag' that lets you add 1 to the available times a server ragdoll will be forced on a chosen player.

Interesting concept. However i have a minor suggestion for this plugin.
Could there be a cvar that enables collision for the ragdolls?

That's actually a good idea, I can't believe I didn't think of that at any point.

I found a suitable collision group that seems to let everything except players collide, so projectiles like pipebombs and stickybombs will bounce off the ragdolls.
I'm going to make a cvar soon.

It says failed to compile, does this require an update or could it be uploaded as an SMX?

I selected the compiler for SourceMod 1.8 intended for backwards compatibility but it just dies from very, very odd warnings that don't line up with my experience in scripting.
So I changed it to the compiler for 1.10.

Why in the world is it like this?
