TTT DeathFaker [Updated 2017, June 24th]

Description
A traitor weapon that can be used to disguise as a corpse with customizable displayed role and death details (cause, weapon used, headshot, scream on death).
Any damage done to the corpse will be redirected to the actual player, transforming them back upon death. Beware that you'll take a lot more damage from falling while faking a corpse as you'll likely faceplant / break your neck instead of dampening the fall with your arms and legs.
Should another player investigate the fake corpse, the scoreboard is updated as if they identified a normal corpse with the set details.

I hacked this thing together a few years ago and uploaded it here so I could use it on a server. The code is quite a mess and probably produces bugs and incompatibilites everywhere but I'm not finding the motivation to re-write / re-structure it.

--- Known Bugs
- Player's corpse spawns on original instead of current fake corpse location on switching to spectators (possibly some other non-damage-related deaths as well?)
- Player can't hear locational sounds near the fake corpse until he revives

could you do a sandbox version pls

Hmm, that shouldn't happen. Only T's and spectators should be able to see the correct state. Does this happen for Innocents and Detectives on your server?

Cool weapon overall, but sadly, the User will still be marked as "alive" on the scoreboard after being inspected. Is that a server config issue or a bug with the faker?

This is a scripted weapon (SWEP) for the "Trouble in Terrorist Town" gamemode, obtainable only through the in-game shop. You won't find it in sandbox mode without modifications to the code.

It seems that I do not have it in the "WEAPON" tab, maybe this is a bug, and it will be fixed
