***OFFICAL*** Left 4 Dead Thread!

I've just added an additional plugin to the server:

Melee Bug Detector
This plugin detects people abusing the melee bug (switching weapons and meleeing repeatedly to do crazy melee damage) and warns them not to. If they continue doing it, they get a kicked and a short (5 min) ban.

The plugin won't be loaded till a server restart and there are people on there at the moment, but let me know if you see it working/not working later this evening :)

Hm, I saw this on another server once, I swear it killed the person doing it though :P
 
Hello all, just got my OCUK approved login today, so greetings. Hope to see you in game or in the Steam group lobby sometime soon.

Hopefully indeed :) Remember to use "sv_search_key ocuk" when you make your own lobby - that way you'll connect to an ocuk group server.

That would be quite amusing, but open to abuse and such :p I quite enjoy the admin/slap command myself.

Hah :p

I'll have to keep a mental note on how to join the servers via the lobby, I still wish they'd implement a way of typing the ip in or something, be so much easier.
 
great lookin set of changes will need some play time to really see if they get rid of the annoying things about vs like melee spamming, auto shotty domination and hising under ramps etc.

General

Fixed Survivors being able to climb surfaces marked for versus infected only

Fixed a class of SurvivorBot bugs dealing with rescuing downed players

Players can no longer grab ladders while flying through the air after a Tank punch

Shooting near a car with an alarm that has already fired the alarm will no longer make chirping noises

Improved loading time

Fixed mini-gun physics exploit

Fixed propane tanks (and other physics objects) causing players to fall through elevators

Fixed rare achievement bug issues

Fixed several map exploits

Fixed various match making issues

Fixed NAT traversal issues


Versus Changes

Added HUD elements to show status of other infected players

Changed color of infected player name in chat to red

Fixed exploit where players could spawn infected bots

Fixed instance where a Survivor changing to the infected team would be attacked by infected bots

Normalized special infected melee damage

Made the following client commands cheat protected: "Kill" and "explode"

Fixed exploit where infected players could run away and teleport back to gain health

Players can only change teams once per map

Players can't change teams while other players are still loading

Tank spawns at the same % through the map for both teams in versus mode

Made the Tank and Witch spawn directly on the escape route

Increased chance of getting the Tank or Witch

Fixed team swap issue


Hunter

Easier to pounce a Survivor who is meleeing

Increased Minimum damage a Hunter pounce does

Smoker

Fixed Smoker tongue tolerance

Smoker now has to be killed or the tongue destroyed for the tongue to break

Survivors cannot bash someone off the tongue until the Survivor being pulled is paralyzed or hanging

Tongue attacks that fail to paralyze or hang a Survivor will use the shorter ability delay timer

Fixed cases where the ability timer was not using the correct time

Fixed case where you could point at a Survivor but not register a tongue hit

Fixed Smoker tongue not targeting and landing properly through PZ ghosts

Smoker tongue does damage every second while dragging paralyzed Survivors


Tank

Bashable objects now appear with a red glow

Tanks hitting a car with an alarm disables the alarm permanently

Tank frustration timer is only reset by hitting Survivors with rocks or fists

Reduced autoshotgun damage against Tanks

Witch
Witch spawns at the same % through the map for both teams

Avoids spawning within a certain % of the tank

Fixed an exploit where the Witch could be woken up and tricked into attacking Survivors


Highlighted the parts me likes :)
