Frighty's Guide to Left 4 Dead Cheats (FOR FUN, NOT COMPETITIVE.)
By wowitsbones
Remember my old guide to MVM console commands for TF2? Here's it's (kinda) sequel, brother, clone or whatever you want to call it. It's Left 4 Dead!

Let's get started!
THIS IS FOR FUN, DO NOT USE IN COMPETITIVE SERVERS OR VAC SERVERS. VIOLATORS WILL BE LIKELY REPORTED. USE ON YOUR OWN PRIVATE SERVER. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. ACHIEVEMENTS ARE DISABLED. So, you're bored. Workshop update's not enough for you, and you go through the same ol' thing. Well, do I have a solution for you! It's called cheating. It's called the spectacular console! So, first start a game, BUT DO NOT DO IT FROM THE MENU. Open up the console and type in map *mapname*. If you don't know a map name, a list will appear, and you can press tab to scroll through it. It will also display custom maps. So you start in the safehouse, but you're not the character you want to be. First, type in sv_cheats 1. THIS IS IMPORTANT, it will enable all cheat commands. If you started from the menu, hint hint, it will not work. Then type in sb_takecontrol *character name*. DO NOT USE WORKSHOP NAMES. Use the name the reskin replaces. You are now *character*! Wupee zippy-a-dee doo-da! But that's only the begininng. If you're worried that you or your teammates might die, type in "god 1" in console. You and your teammates are now invincible. Now say you want to take things from a different view. Like how in platformers it's always thirdperson, you always see the character's back. Go into console and type in "thirdperson". Now you're in a thirdperson perspective! If you want to go back to firstperson, type "firstperson" in console, you will go back to firstperson view. Now, the safehouse doesn't have the weapon you want. Go to console and type "give *weapon*" If you don't know the weapon names, a list will appear like you saw when starting a map. You're all set, ready to fight zombies YOUR way.
Trying to defy the zombies
You unlock the safehouse door, stepping into the apocalypse of unknown cause. You however are ready as dropping a Nokia from space on purpose. (Killing the Dinosaurs.) You fight the zombies and you're unstoppable. But, it's not enough. If you're lame enough to just delete all the Zombies with the blink of an eye, go to console and type in "director_stop". All the zombies are gone. You lazy bum. (You can bring them back with "director_start") Now let's say that didn't happen and all the zombies are still there. There's the Witch, that scary crabby woman that will scream and ♥♥♥♥ you up if you get close to her. I was personally scared of this thing when the game came out, and mainly kept me from playing Left 4 Dead. Let's DEFY the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ shall we? Go into console and type "z_witch_anger_rate *decimal number*" The lower the number, the closer you can get to her without startling her quickly. Now for some strange reason, you want to create an army of special infected. A rebelling army of course. Go to console, type in z_spawn *infected*. (Valid *infected*s are: "tank","witch","hunter","smoker","boomer","common","horde". To remove infected type "kick *infected*" in console.) Now, you're feeling really lazy today and saying "♥♥♥♥ it, when is this damn guide with so many scenarios gonna tell me to blow through it." Well i'll tell you, you lousy bum, type "noclip" in console and you'll fly through the walls. You made it through! Good job!
Updates!
In case I missed anything and it's pointed out by someone, it will be posted here.

"director_force_panic_event" will manually start a panic event. "director_panic forever 1" will make it last forever. Type "director_panic 0" to stop it.

If you want to bind a key, type "bind *key* *command*, make sure it's not an important key though, like "w".
"sv_inifinite_ammo 1" Will trigger infinite ammo for your weapons.
Why do they need to censor this when it's for a rated M game? I don't understand this. How to defy that? f u c k

Enable console, type "map *mapname*" in the console, you should have your own private game with bots.

Is there any way to make it so the infected ignore you?

Frighty, add console commands for weapons spawns please, especially for "non-default", such as scout and AWP.
