Figured out the SaveTable issue, should have realized it before. I was using entity references as keys and it doesn't serialize them correctly.

Other thing I should mention, those borked weapons? While you can't use them, , does work. Strange

The ammo issue is only with SOME default spawns. you can use ent.__KeyValueFromInt("ammo",NUM) on already spawned items, and while it returns true, it doesn't actually work.

I found an easier solution, Convert the non spawn versions into spawn versions, so in weaponsToConvert....
weapon_smg = "weapon_smg_spawn" // etc

As far as the non-spawn versions being borked, I wonder if it has something to do with the spawnflags being set to 2, I think those are the flags for the spawner being incorrectly applied to the non-spawn version. If you look at a normal weapon_weaponname, the spawnflags will be something like 1073741824

I still have some issues with load-in. What I did was use map_transition to set the survivor's health before the next map. This works perfectly unless they are incapped, so I need to figure a way around that.

That would explain it. Have you tried the new version? I'd say Normal is closing to our run though in Advanced. Though some maps, ike c5m1_waterfront are just so short, ot much you can do

I figured I'd start a thread for it to solicit feedback as I've got it closer to where I want it.

Tank Slayer

• All Tanks
  
• Each Tank has more health, spanws quicker and hits harder than last
  
• All health is temporary
  
• Health decays faster and faster
  
• Health is awarded by killing tanks with bonuses by damage
  
• Penalty decay for not engaging Tank
  
• Pills awarded every 5 levels
  
• Difficulty adjusted based on flow distance in KNOWN maps.
  
• You cannot outrun a Tank

Odds & Ends
Pills revive a black and white, but the heartbeats don't stop and add up on each 3rd incap.
Black & White Survivors during map transition stay that way on next map

Future plans
- Polish stuff, new HUD, better sounds
- Custom response rules
- Some other bells and whistles.
- Stats collection
Feedback welcome.

CHANGELOG

• 2012.5.6 - As you can't un-black&white a player, now players don't die after 3 incaps
  
• 2012.5.6 - survivors incapped on tank death, get their health on being revived. Revived now gives 30 health on it's own
  
• 2012.3,01 - Revived survivors now get 40 health to make up for not receiving their bonus if incapped when tank dies.

• 2013.2.24 - Fixed weapon spawn bug where guns were unusuable or had one clip

• 2013.2.21 - More fixes, fire now doesn't reset coward timer after initial hit
  
• 2013.2.21 - Fixed bug with health not decaying after map transition (thanks to The Fish)
  
• 2013.2.20 - Cleaned up and enhanced the HUD (still lots to do)
  
• 2013.02.14 - Giving pills is now out again as temp health can be manipulated reliably. Pills now bonus

I noticed while trying to base code off mapname (all in a main script), SessionState.MapName doesn't change from the first map loaded.

So after transitioning from c5m1_waterfront to c5m1_waterfront to c5m2_park, it's still saying c5m1_waterfront. I'm not doing any saving/restoring of state

I was wondering if there was a mechanism for mutations to replace existing game sounds

Thank you sir!

It seems like tanks don't "listen" to CommandABot. Am I doing something wrong?

No, they are just stored in the game lump instead of the entity lump I believe
