Welcome to Larry's L4D2 Realism

The following changes have been made to larrymod and the server and will be in effect as of January 26th, 2025.

• medkits will now heal a survivor up to a total of 40 permanent health and the rest will be temporary health
  
  • if you have less than 40 perm health and you heal, your health after the heal will be 40 perm health + temp health
    
  • if you have more than 40 perm health before you heal, you will not receive any additional perm health. Your health after the heal will be the perm health you had previous to the heal and the rest will be temp health
    
  • helps survivors track their incap count
    
  • adds a feature that allows survivors to maintain their movement speed if they don't take any damage before their temp health depletes
• added the ability for the infected team to vote for which teammate will play as Tank in the current round
  
• jockey & smoker claw damage increased from 4 to 5 per scratch
  
• removed l4d2_wskin_rng plugin in favor of the SirPlease Competitive Rework weapon skin enabler script (modified for larrymod to include more weapons & skins)
  
  • should fix bug with being able to spawn infinite guns by picking up new guns
• added current team scores to the readyup menu
  
• reworked l4d2_blind_infected_rup plugin (scouting period)
  
  • optimized method for hiding items & weapons
    
  • items on first map are now hidden until round starts from all players & spectators except items in saferoom or items held by survivors
    
  • items hidden from spectators
• added l4d_common_ragdolls_be_gone_larrymod plugin
  
  • commons vanish on death for spectators
    
  • admin specs can turn ragdolls on/off for themselves
• removed deprecated l4d2_scores plugin
  
• turned off Lamp plugin model precaching in all maps that don’t use lamps
  
• added anti-juggle plugin: juggling of items will now be restricted. Repeated pickups of certain items over a short interval will prevent subsequent pickups of the same item for a short period of time to prevent juggling of items from one area to another (i.e. juggling fire ammo and your medkit to keep both for the tank fight ahead).

• Map 3
  
  • removed set of doors just before alarm door on the lower route
• Map 4 - Finale
  
  • Reintroduced pills and shots in the finale. Let there be bathroom shopping! (fire ammo remains excluded for team balance)

• Map 1
  
  • fixed commons & bot navigation near the re-worked route by the playground
• Map 4
  
  • fixed commons & bot navigation near the re-worked route by the playground

• Map 1
  
  • added invisible blockers above kitchen cabinets to prevent spit from seeping through the floor into the kitchen above

• Map 2
  
  • blocked witch spawn in left-hand side train tunnel as she always spawns in the narrow space between the train and wall in this area due to the nav escape route path
• Map 3
  
  • prevent players from getting stuck between the stairs and the tiny wall ridge on the way back out of the tunnels just after the campsite area
• Map 4
  
  • added beams next to added traincar at start of bridge at end of Blood Harvest map 4 to prevent survivors from falling and getting stuck between the traincar and bridge railing

• Map 1
  
  • added stairs from Zonemod to start of passing map 1
    
  • removed some extra random junk/trash models in the map to prevent the new stairs from crashing the map from too many entities

• Increased the "forced" jockey sound volume level to what it's supposed to be.
  
• Fixed wrong stumble directions on Special Infected and Survivors.
  
• Fixed an issue where Survivors get launched into the sky when pulled while stumbled.
  
• Fixed a critical issue in l4d2_hybrid_scoremod.smx (and the ZoneMod version) where if a Survivor made it into the end saferoom but was incapacitated, the chapter score would still update as if they were a standing survivor.
  
• Fixed Tanks "respawning" with ~4-5k Health after dying as AI.
  
• Fixed shoves not registering on common infected climbing ladders.
  
• Fixed charger clears sometimes boosting Survivors into the sky.

• Fixed witch spawning issues on c1m3 for configs that were basing their map changes on ZoneMod while enabling witches.

  • Players are no longer able to pick up a magnum if a currently incapacitated player normally has one, which would make the original owner get up without a secondary.
• Fixed hittables bouncing off of rotated physics blockers (example: c2m2 before warehouse).
  
• Added cfg/cvar_tracking which the repository uses to have a much better baseline of cvars that should be checked on clients for abuse.
  
  • This is done so that we don't have to assume that server owners setup and configure SMAC/LILAC to do it properly.
• Added back the default loading of firebulletsfix.smx which resolves the issue of bullets being misplaced by 1 tick.
  
  • After this was proven to still be an issue in L4D2, I've decided to add it back.
• Added the possibility for config owners to allow gascans to break the smoker tongue when using l4d_tongue_bend_fix.smx.
  
• Added/updated Spanish translations for a heap of plugins.
