[VScript] Boss Warn

Description
A small VScript that will annonuce to players when a Boss Infected (Tanks, Witches) spawns in. Text will be printed to chat and a sound will play.

Can be a helpful Script for new players, or for Versus. I suppose just an all around general usage script.

This is not my original idea, as this comes from a SourceMod plugin of Tank and Witch spawn announcements.

This script will only work if the server is Local Hosted

Do let me know of any bugs.

GitHub repository [github.com]

Thanks and have fun.

Alright. t's nice to see mod creators actually take feedback instead of "nah do it yourself".
And yes, the instant witch startle with a flashlight is an idea I took from the L4D1 intro, as the intro and survivors point that she hates light, and they tell you to turn off your lights as if it was a death sentence if you didn't, but all it really does is slightly extend her anger range and make her get up slightly faster the closer you are to her.

Hey. the addon script doesn't have any configuration yet. I do intent on including a config so you could have either Tank, Witch or both warnings to show.

As for insta-startling a Witch if you shine your flashlight, that sounds like a unique idea to do in-game, sorta like in the L4D1 Intro. I'd love to try that.

Does this have an EM or configurable settings so only the Witch has the warning?
Also if you take suggestions, what do you think about a mod that instantly startles the Witch if you look at her with your flashlight on?

Excellent. Now I know what to look forward to in the future to avoid breaking L4B2.

well the update seems to have fixed the issue. bots actually threw a molotov at the tank since they can now see it. and it printed the "tank is nearby" text in chat :D

Alrighty, update is pushed, hopefully it is indeed fixed.

Alright, I'll give that a try. Thanks a bunch. Still learning the in's and out's of VScript. All the help and knowledge is appreciated.

yes, I think make "HUD_PRINTTALK" as a const will fix the problem.
or just use "3"?
