This thread is to cover additions/bugs and notes regarding my tinkering with the L4D server, mainly as notes to myself rather than an interesting topic for the public.

So feel free not to read anymore biggrin.gif


1. Fixed search key for server, if people want to join they need to be a member of the sneakymonkeys steam group:

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/sneakymonkeys/

2. In game, before making a lobby, open the console and type: sv_search_key sneakymonkeys

(this performs a server search against only servers with the sneakymonkeys key e.g. ours) - I'll work out a way to add this in as a shortcut soon

-----

It's 18:00 and I've added enhanced gore to the server.. tested on a 6200 gfx card and doesnt affect lag. Tested OK with extra squishiness

-----

Added mod to prevent plays using melee cheats (speed/funny switch weapons/smack bindings)
Added mod to prevent players opening door on No Mercy 3 by smacking it

^- one of these is causing the safe room door to be unopenable after level change, will have to investigate further

-----

Added admin console, admin groups etc., - =SM= will be able to kick, vote, change settings etc., without vote
Added immunity to being kicked to =SM= members - will need a list of steam ID's for this.
Added punishment for repeated voting

In progress, core is loaded without errors, but no admins or groups added yet

-----

Added changes infected display, so that menu will show:

How much HP they have <LI>What class they're playing as <LI>How much time they have left until they spawn <LI>Their status (Alive, Dead, Spawning)

Seems to be working OK.

-----

Vote Manager:

Can be set to allow public access or prohibiton to the following:

l4d_vote_lobby_access
l4d_vote_difficulty_access
l4d_vote_level_access
l4d_vote_restart_access
l4d_vote_kick_access

Requiers admin groups from above to be sorted, (basically can just be used to prevent public from performaing certain types of vote)
- In progress

BUG: Server intro music plays once when the game loads and once when you close the server MOTD.

Which is bloody odd.
