Hidden:SourceMod (Scripts, Ideas and Discussions)

[BiPP]

I've shifted from the global compile.exe thing which does EVERY plugin in the scripting folder to a compile tool in TextPad which does each one individually and puts them in the normal plugins folder instead of scripting/compiled.

And that's the less documented part of the sourcemod website ><
can't easely find the compile.exe in the download section (wtf !)

...

And while creating this post I undestood that the exe was on my server...

I've updated 2 plugins: Beta 5 Shove to v1.0.1 and AutoBot to v1.0.1.

/*
 * Hidden:SourceMod - Beta 5 Shove
 *
 * Description:
 *   Converts hidden's pigstick into a shove until hidden's health drops below 20.
 *
 * Cvars:
 *  sv_pigstick 0/1: globally enabled or disable hidden's alternate knife attack (pigstick AND shove)
 *  hsm_pigstick 0/1: enable or disable pigsticking when hidden is enraged
 *
 * Changelog:
 *  v1.0.1
 *   Added a 15º boost the the angle so that head-on shoves give a bit of altitude and crouch-up shoves give a higher angle
 *   Increased the vertical shove scaling slightly so up-shoving a player from and to flat ground will do minor fall damage.
 *  v1.0.0
 *   Initial release.
 *
 */

/*
 * Hidden:SourceMod - Autobot.
 *
 * Description:
 *  Spawns a bot in an empty or 1 person server.
 *  Bot leaves when there are 2 playable players.
 *
 * Changelog:
 *  v1.0.1
 *   Fixed the auto-kicking problem.
 *   Only 1 bot joins.
 *   Checks for server's cheat setting so it doesn't set sv_cheats 0 if it's already 1.
 *  v1.0.0
 *   Initial release.
 *

Special thanks to Smookr, for helping me test them.

Updated 303 Stun Announce to v1.0.1:

Spoiler:

 *  The Hidden hears the annoucement from attacker as voice.
 *
 * Noted:
 *  How would the IRIS even know? I think the sounds where actually added for 303-induced round-ends.
 *  I might recall this from general use.

Anything interesting that gets suggested.

Hmm, what about the ability for Admins to spectate the hidden?

[-SM-SUCKER]

what about a feature to allow an admin to let any client create a screenshot and send it to the server for further inspection.

I've thought about it briefly but so far haven't come up with anything meaningful. It's a nice idea though so I'll take a longer look at it.

Sorry but as far as i'm aware that would require client-side coding in order to send the file.

Automatic Ammunition Requester - v1.0.0

/*
 * Hidden:SourceMod - Automatic ammo request

no luck i'm afraid. I can find the target to spectate easily enough but even when i force the view to the desired target on the server's every game frame it still jumps back to iris only. and then even if it would stick to the hidden's view for more than the 0.001 seconds it seems to (i get a glimps only), i haven't found a way to directly associate a given player with a view target so specifying a player gets a tad tedious.

[-SM-SUCKER]

Well the devs could include a list of admins for the next server files. People that are in this list, which can only be changed via rcon or similar are allowed to spectate the Hidden.

[Paegus]

i suppose. i recall having this discussion before though and concluding that a server variable containing a list of steamids would be the simplest way.

i've queried the sourcemod forums for a way to translate the entity pointers into a normal index but my hopes aren't too high. i've looked at some of the existing plugins for things like grabbing props (& players) and the method some of the vastly more experienced types use seem to be telling me there's just no way to do that.

I know, I know... you'll need to remove the old hsm_b5shove.smx file from your server's plugin folder.

Darn. Thanks for checking though!

I like the new ammo request plugin, I always play support and folks never think to ask for ammo.

And your new mirrorbot is kicking my butt so far. Really forces you to get good at your swiping-in-mid-pounce technique... Anything less than perfect and he nails you every time.
