View Full Version : Fun Night: Spaz Random Weapon Mod

To coincide with the fun night thread:

Once I get access to the GH custom server (ferret depending ha =) I'll see about adding my Spaz mod to it. In the meantime, I'll open it up to additions for any feature requests and see if I can find the time to squeeze it in.

So far this is how the plugin works:

- Sets buy time to 0
- Drops your $ to $399, enough to buy defuse or some grenades but can't buy the cheapest gun (glock at $400)
- Every 5 rounds, it will randomly pick a primary and secondary weapon for each team
- It will remove the existing weapons (so there's no point in trying to keep it)
- C4 is retained
- DE, MP5, AK, Colt, Aug and Commando are not available
- AWP is, but you can't zoom (muahahahah)
- There are 2 allowable scout options, with zoom and without.
- There are 4 types of weapon themes: 1) all weapons, 2) all weapons but restricted by team (only CT's can get TMPs), 3) matching (TMP vs TMP), 3) matching by team (TMP vs Mac10). By default it's set to randomize between the themes.

Things to add:
- replace the weapon selection so instead of being hardcoded, it is togglable from a menu, so you can add the previously disallowed weapons if you want (but where's the fun in that?)
- Menu options to change some settings around (which weapon theme, how many rounds before changing, etc).
- Vote feature for non-admins?

Any other ideas?

And yes, this is how my clan played on OGL awhile back for fun. It's amazing how much of a better player you get when you intentionally handicap yourself, as you have to aim better and score more hits, none of this one AK insta-kill headshots. We ended it with a respectable 3-8 ratio. Think we suck? Try playing estate using Scout+P228 only - and winning. =)

I think the weapons should change every round, maybe 2 rounds, instead of every 5 rounds so you dont get used to any one thing. But i havent played with it yet, so i dont know

I concur. Also, I would hate to be stuck with a sniper rifle for more than 2 rounds. That only leads to my many deaths (I think my total number of kills for all AWP maps I've ever played is like 5).

I know for a fact that the lowest buytime you can set on a map is 15 sec, even if you put mp_buytime 0 er whatever the config setting is it still allows 15 sec.

Other than that I've seen many people attempt to make plugins like this, but have not seen something that is not bug free. GL

OK, so far no one has offered anything that I haven't already covered:
- Round times will be able to set by an admin or player voting, I just default to 5 to give people a chance to get used to the guns.
- Buying is resolved by setting buytime as low as possible and restricting your $ to $399 so the only things you could buy are grenades or defuse kits.

And even at its current state it's bug free.

Yes, [OJ]Jeff getting silent run is a feature, not a bug. =)

Yeah, I can add in special features for people depending on their STEAM_ID, just have to make it so they can toggle it on or off.

Heh. Who would buy a glock? However, for that matter, why even mess with the money? Just use buy menu restrictions. Limit everyone from buying anything but primary ammo, secondary ammo, and equipment.


- Every 5 rounds, it will randomly pick a primary and secondary weapon for each team
- It will remove the existing weapons (so there's no point in trying to keep it)


Why? Give people an incentive to live. If you live, you keep your crap. If you die, you respawn with random weapons. Dump the every five round requirement.


- DE, MP5, AK, Colt, Aug and Commando are not available
- AWP is, but you can't zoom (muahahahah)
- There are 2 allowable scout options, with zoom and without.
- There are 4 types of weapon themes: 1) all weapons, 2) all weapons but restricted by team (only CT's can get TMPs), 3) matching (TMP vs TMP), 3) matching by team (TMP vs Mac10). By default it's set to randomize between the themes.


Bah.

Thirkeen > Hampster... Like you said thirkeen, make it all configurable with menus so an admin can change it on the fly to change it to the demands for the players.

You should also make it choose a player to slay at "random" every round, but make that player Jeff because I hate him.

Maybee you could make it have baloney sandwiches fall to the ground, and when they hit they explode like an HE and split into 3 pieces that explode like flashbangs. Then when you think its over a fish will fall from the sky and its stink will slay you.
</Sarcasm>

leave it alone the mod is fine the way it is. its fun as well. thrikeen> kudos for you efforts. i remember playing it a while back on your server, it was actually pretty fun.
